Thanksgiving and Baptism

This past weekend was sure a busy one-Thanksgiving and Baptism. We were able to spend Thanksgiving with my parents and totally enjoyed having a relaxed day in our home-yummy food included. My parents, David's parents, Josh and Brenda, and Sarabeth were able to make it to Anderson and Callie's Baptism! What a special time it was for all of us!

Anderson wore the gown that David wore, which was his grandpas from 1904!

Callie wore my great grandfather's gown, which was also worn by my brother Josh.

Story time with Dad after baths-yay for Christmas books!

Videos, Videos, Videos!!!

Well, I finally figured out what my problem was with the video I was shooting...I was shooting in too high a resolution! I took a number of videos this past week to try and make up for the others I can't post! And boy were there some good ones! These videos are amazing to me as I watch them because they show just how big the kids are getting! Even though I see them everyday, it's still so hard to believe how fast they grow up!

3 Months

*November 13-Anderson and Callie are 3 months! Where has the time gone!?! Here are our monthly pictures, just look at how big they are getting!

*November 11-13-Melissa, my friend from high school, spent the weekend with us and the kids totally enjoyed her! And I enjoyed a little girl time out with her!

*Callie is now sleeping through the night! Yippee! Anderson has been waking up once during the night for the past week or so. Seems he needs a midnight snack-we just can't keep him full

The Greats

*November 2-Anderson started sleeping through the night! Yippee!
*November 4-6-Great Aunt Nancy drove Great Grandma and Grandpa to Texas this year. They took an unusual route-Southern Minnesota to Minot to Southern Texas! Great Grandma and Grandpa had to see the great grandbabies one more time before they headed south for the winter and Great Aunt Nancy was kind enough to add the 2 extra days to her drive! Her bonus was meeting Callie and Anderson!

*November 7-Anderson moved to size 2 diapers. Callie moved to size 1 diapers. Both kiddos use cloth/reusable diapers during the day at home.

Halloween! And 1st Shots!

We all had a great Halloween! We took a few pictures earlier in the day with our pumpkins and then we all got dressed up and took a few more pictures before heading out to see a few neighbors and friends.

Leo, our neighbor and Callie, the kids really made his day!

Today Anderson and Callie had their 2 month check-up (even though they are 2 1/2 months) and they are doing great! Anderson weighs 13lbs4oz which puts him in the 50-75 percentile. He is 23.75 inches long putting him in the 50-75 percentile. Callie is 9lbs2oz putting her in the 5 percentile and is 21.75 inches long and in the 10 percentile. They each got a shot today and spent the afternoon sleeping it off. Anderson snuggled with me for awhile. And as of now Anderson is sleeping again and Callie is snuggling with Dad!
