The tree

It took a little while to find the "perfect tree". Having two oldest children for parents can sometimes be "trying". Liam had fun stomping around in puddles and pointing out trees that he liked.

We found one! Gabe gets down to business, while Liam and our friend, Katura look on and give moral support.

Getting closer....

Yep, you got it, Dad! Good angle.

TIMBER!!!! Yeah!

Christmas tree anyone?

We spent this past Saturday with three other families looking for our Christmas tree. It was wet, but spirits were high as we headed into the Cascades to cut our tree. Liam brought his own saw. We had a great time "hunting".

Liam looking.....
Our gang.

December is here.....

Gabe stretches a lot because of his back. So, it is no wonder that Liam has started stretching too. Here they are (on the kitchen floor) stretching together.

Taking care of those legs!

When Liam was born, my mom and our dear friend, Heidi, gave us a locally made willow basket. Liam spent his first few months, taking naps in this sweet basket. We just pulled it out of storage at my mom's house and Liam was enjoying some cozy time back in his first little bed.

It is a little more snug than I remember...

That's better.
