Clark Christmas
















We celebrated the Clark Christmas this past weekend. It was so nice to this side of the family; since, we rarely get the chance to get together. It was the Meyer boys job to plan this years event & I must give Brad a huge ovation for putting together such a wonderful party. Great job, babe!

Meyer Party








We went to the Meyer (2nd cousing party...as Brad refers to it) party this past weekend. Santa took some time off from the North Pole to come visit us...the kids either loved him or were scared to death! Aidan was so content in Santa's arms, whereas our Joseph would only get close enough to give a high 5 & as long as mommy was holding him!

St. Nick visited the kids last Saturday. He knows to leave their stockings at Grandma and Grandpa's house, so we can all get together and visit...he's so clever that way! The kids had such a great time eating pizza and delicious Christmas cookies (not Joseph's green face), opening their St. Nick stockings, watching Thomas on TV, and ending the night in the tub! I love any and every excuse to get together with family! Such a great night!















Children's Museum at Union Terminal
















The day after Thanksgiving was such a treat...no we didn't brave the "Black Friday" shopping; but spent the day with my mom and John and our boys. Joseph is a little "obsessed" with Thomas the Tank Engine these days, so we knew we wanted to take him to see holiday trains. We decided to head over to the Children's museum and it was AMAZING! What a treat to have such an interactive and fun place to take the boys. Not only did we see trains, Joseph played and played...he loved the water exhibit! This was also the first time that we saw a glimpse into the future of having an independent child...Joseph bravely and excitedly rode a train BY HIMSELF (Brad was too big to ride) and was in such awe that when the time came to get off we had to rip him from the train door...I almost starting crying watching my little baby sitting in the engine of the train.

Thanksgiving






















Thanksgiving was wonderful! Brad and I were surrounded by family and friends that we love dearly, our two healthy boys, and each other! I have so much to be thankful for this year...but forever 2008 will be the year of the birth of Aidan and he, along with Joseph, are my 2 biggest blessings!






Aidan's 4 month stats...

We had Aidan's 4 month check up on Monday and I am happy as pie to say he's doing GREAT! He's progressing right on track and is such a good baby!
His current stats are:
Height 26.75 inches (95%)
Weight 16.11 pounds (80-90%)
It looks like we may have a basketball player (tall and thin).
