We had an extraordinary holiday weekend with family and friends. We learned a lot about four 2year olds under the same roof for 4 days straight. A lot of fun, a lot of 'time-outs', a lot of 'NOs', some crying, lots of laughing, and A LOT of play time. So much fun...can we do it again next weekend???


Sharing our latest and greatest toy with our cousins. It was so unseasonable cold on Thanksgiving we had to bundle up and were only allowed to be out for 15-20 minutes max. Mommy and Daddy got cold before we were so we had to go inside...wimps???
A much needed bubble bath after a hard day of play!

Winding down with Uncle Steve watching some Einstein videos. Bed time is arriving soon....

Reading time with Uncle Steve


A much warmer day allowed Mom and Dad to get Christmas lights up on the house. Of course, being the helpers we are, we were able to pull some strands of lights out of the box and 'detangle' them. Great helpers we are!



I'm headed to my secret spot for 'detangling'

Wait...me too!! I'm coming, brother!


Sunday afternoon helping Mommy and Daddy put the finishing touches on the start of the Christmas season. Putting the star on the top of our new Christmas tree! Thanks, Daddy!

Too much work makes us hungry and thirsty. We're hiding our snacks from Mommy and Daddy so we get our full 20 minute break. Do you think they will find us in our hiding spot under the table near the window?

Now....I'm fully ready for Christmas! Bring it on!!

Some of our more favorite candid shots from our photo shoot. Ethan decided to have a major attitude problem and a melt down during the entire shot, however, our photographer managed to get some spectacular shots!







One of our new favorite activities is playing on the "Weeeee" (No, Mommy didn't mispell it for the 'Wii'). With every swing back and forth, one of us yells..."WEEEEEE!" It's so much fun and something we can do together without fighting. Although, we do get upset when it slows down or stops moving.

Fall fun in the leaves. Beautiful fall weather. Can't ask for anything better!

Throwing leaves in the air and watching them fall!

We're enjoying our new Christmas present early. Thanks to 'Uncle' Bret and Daddy for taking a couple days out of their busy schedules to construct our latest toy. It's much needed entertainment in the back yard.
We've each only taken a few spills off the top! But, we're resilient little buggers and we hop right up. We heard Mommy saying to Daddy that she bets we won't even make a month before ending up in the ER for broken bones. We hope to prove her wrong!! But...we are ALL BOY!! The more danger, the better!
Stopping for a 'cheeze' on my way up to the top!

Hanging off the top!

Thanks for our awesome Christmas present!

An unfortunate event led to Mommy taking a brief trip to Fargo, ND. It was wonderful to see extended family that its been 5-10+years since seeing, however circumstances were not ideal. We'll miss you, Great Grandma Ann! RIP

Mommy's favorite nieces!

Yay...we get to see cousins' Maris and Tiffany in 1 week for Thanksgiving!

A quick picture with my nephew!

We're headed in to the busy holiday season! Yay!

Trick or Treat?!

We had so much fun for the spooky holiday! Not only did we get to spend the weekend alone with Grandma, but Mom and Dad let us go out and trick or treat!! Grandma didn't make us go to school, but she did, however, take us to school for our Halloween party and then bring us home. We got away with a lot of stuff. After all... GRANDMAs are way better than Mommys and Daddys. They always say yes!
Our first house we stopped at 'uncle' Bret and 'auntie' Nikki's house. We got lots of surprises for our buckets! A quick pose with Grandma before we hit the streets to collect all that candy!
Sesame Street... better watch out! Cookie and Elmo!


What a great night! Headed home with Daddy!



Mommy and Daddy's first weekend alone since our birth day! They sure did have a great time. Especially seeing TU beat Notre Dame! Go TU! Thanks, Grandma, for everything! We appreciate the offer to babysit for the weekend!
