Robby 7 Months

We can't believe our baby boy is already 7 months old!
Robby has been such a joy to our household. He is a very expressive little guy and he especially loves to stick out his tongue when he's happy!
We are also very proud of him because as of a few days ago, he now holds his own bottle. This is something his sister never did so it is very exciting for Mom!
Robby absolutely loves hanging out with his family and being part of the action.  He's especially taken with his Sister!
He's pretty wild about Poppy too!
 We were fortunate to be able to ring in the new year with great friends.
As Katie put it last night, Ashlynn is her "bestest friend!"
Robby is especially fond of Mom's great friend Liz.
What a great night!
2013 is off to a pretty great start so far. We can't wait to see what the year has in store for us!

Christmas 2012

 Christmas 2012 turned out to be another fun and eventful holiday. We began by going down to Nana and Poppy's house on Christmas Eve and spending the evening with wonderful friends!
Afterwards we moved right into eating dinner. Robby enjoyed solids in his high chair and then moved on to watch everyone from the floor!
Katie's most favorite part of the meal was the annual dessert - reese roll. She watched it very carefully until a piece finally made it onto her plate!
It was a very yummy dinner!

Afterwards, Katie got in her PJ's and put out milk and cookies for Santa.
The next morning she and Robby were very excited to see the stockings!
Katie got right into the swing of opening presents and spent most of the time whisking away and piling up the contents - unless the gifts were hers of course. Then she started to play with them immediately!
 She really liked her Rapuzel hair!
And so did Dad....
Katie's gift to Robby was Mickey Mouse.  We think he liked it!
He definitely liked when Nana fed him his Christmas lunch!
Being a little nutty, Mom saved Katie's First Christmas sleeper and it turns out that despite being 2 and half months younger than Katie was, Robby fit in it perfectly for his First Christmas too! Here is Katie...
And Robby...
They sure do look like brother and sister!
What a wonderful Christmas!
