Getting ready for Christmas

It is tradition every year with our family to put up Christmas decorations the weekend of Thanksgiving. This year, was a little different with a little 13 month old helper. He was adorable. He calls the ornaments on the tree, balls. He helped us decorate the tree by handing the ornaments one-by-one to Daddy. He did not throw or drop any of them. He was very proud of himself when we were done.

So far, no ornaments have been taken off the tree and no stockings have been pulled down. It will be interesting to see how many of my Christmas decorations stay up this year.

Everytime Peyton walks by the tree he says "Oh pretty". So Cute!!!! As you can see in the pictures, we have a fire going. Yes, it was cold this Holiday weekend in Houston, Texas. It was rainy and in the 40's.

We are really looking forward to this Holiday season!

Girls Week in NYC

We decided to make a last minute trip to NYC. My mom was going to be alone in New York, so she thought it would be fun for us to come and visit one last time. We had a great time, just the girls and Peyton. We layed around every morning in our pajamas and drank coffee and watched the kids. We did not get out till the afternoon because it was cold.

The last night, Lezlie and I went to watch Mary Poppins on Broadway. It was really good!! Mom watched the kids all evening (thanks again mom!!).

Here is a slide show of our trip. New York is beautiful in the Fall.
