Christmas 2011

I have always loved Christmas, but there is a whole new level of excitement when you have kids. Here are some pics of our adventures throughout the Christmas season of 2011.

Tate was not too keen on sitting on Santa's lap, but Walker had fun.

Our family of 4!

sweet brothers!

Tate was very curious about the Christmas tree

Walker loves Uga

Fun on the carousel!

"The stockings were hung by the chimney with care..."

Santa was good to Walker and Tate

They love their new wagon

Walker was so excited about his new "book pack"

Thanksgiving

Ok, so we're a little behind in posting some pictures. We've just been too busy trying to keep with with our two lively, loveable boys.

This past Thanksgiving was the first one we've had at our house. The Torberts were in Florida with Tiffany's family, so we had a smaller feast than usual. Kenneth cooked an amazing turkey and everything else was delicious. Bompa and DD came up for dinner and Andy and Sara didn't eat with us but dropped by for a little extra pumpkin pie.

More tailgaiting

We love football season when we get to tailgate with family and friends. Here are some more tailgating pics from this fall.

Around the House - Fall 2011

Here are some cute pics from random fun around our house.

Walker LOVES playing football with his helmut on.

sleepy boy!

I love how Tate is looking at Walker in this picture.

Walker spilled an entire bowl of salsa on his head and it was too funny of a picture to pass up.

Halloween 2011

We had fun coordinating the boys' costumes this year. Walker was a chef, and Tate was a lobster. Walker kept saying he was going to cook Tate, so we couldn't resist a pic with him in a stockpot.

Walker with his buddy Sam (asking kids to say "Happy Halloween" is a great way to capture smiles) ;)

We took a trip to the pumpkin patch with Bompa and DD. Walker loved playing in the leaves and with the pumpkins. Tate was not too thrilled with the pumpkins though.

Go DAWGS!

It's the greatest time of the year...football season! Here are a few pics of our Bulldog family from the first few games. GO DAWGS!

My favorite little Bulldogs!

Walker loved the Dawg Walk

Solid Food

Tate had his first rice cereal 2 weeks ago. He is currently devouring the rice cereal and bananas we have given him. Next up is sweet potatoes! Here are a few pics from the first feeding sessions.

"I'm not too sure about this..."

"I'll take that spoon!"

"Bring it on!"

"Mmmmmm!"
