Thanksgiving with Family

We spent the week in VA with our families eating lots of great food and spending time with everyone.

All the kids trying to squeeze in!

Lilly, or Lillybird as Colby likes to call her, is so sweet.

We had a great time seeing everyone, and even managed to squeeze in a little Black Friday shopping.

Little Boys

My little boys are growing up so fast. Here's a card I recently created through Shutterfly to show how fast Logan is growing. He's 4 months now. Time is flying by!

Creating Shutterfly cards is quick and easy. I love how beautiful they always turn out.

Thankful for my cars

We were talking to Colby on our way out to visit family this Thanksgiving about why we celebrate Thanksgiving and what we're thankful for. When we asked Colby what he was thankful for, he said, "my mommy, my daddy, Logan, Nana, Gigi, Pa, Grandad, Grandma, Uncle Matt, Uncle Adam, Aunt Niki, Aunt Amy, Shawnie, Emma, Jacob, Lillybird and my cars". He can't forget his cars!

Rockin'

My dad gave us this rocking chair over the weekend. Logan sat in it for awhile, and seemed to really like it.


I love his little expression in this one.

Logan sits!

Logan sat up for a couple seconds by himself! Long enough for me to snap a picture anyways! He's starting to show interest in his toys, and he kicks his legs when he gets excited about something.

Fall Harvest

Colby's school had a Fall Harvest Party. They all wore the crafts they made at school that month...a handprint turkey shirt, turkey leg hat, macaroni necklaces, and drums. Parents were invited to the feast, and they all beat their drums to music. It was really cute to watch.

Visit with Nadine

My very good friend, Nadine, came for a visit with her twins from Luxembourg. We had such a great time playing with the kids, catching up, and making homemade cinnamon rolls.

Playdough is fun!


Nadine and I took the kids to Baltimore to visit our friend Nicole and her new baby Adelyn. We tried to get a picture of all the kids and moms together, but that was next to impossible to get 5 toddlers, 2 infants, and 3 moms to sit still together!

Playtime Outside

We had a nice day, so we went outside to play for a little while while Logan was taking a nap.

What he does most of the time...RUNNING! :)

Wishing this was in focus, but I still love his little face anyways.

Great Grandpa & Grams Fisher visit

My grandparents who live in NC came for a visit for my cousin's baby shower. So, we all got together so they could see the kids and meet Logan for the first time.
Colby had a ball playing with Grandpa Fish!

Happy Halloween

The week before Halloween, we all were hit with a terrible stomach virus. It's awful to watch your little boys throw up!

On a better note, I took Colby & Logan out trick or treating. Colby was a little timid at the first house, but when he turned around, he had the biggest smile on his face and said, "I got candy! I want to go to another one!". After he got a lollipop at one house, he would then report to me whether or not he got a lollipop at each house. It was really cute.

Logan meets Great Grandma Diehl

We took Logan to Bridgewater to meet my grandmother. She's 93 years old, and doing pretty well.

Deep Creek Trip

We took a quick trip up to Deep Creek Lake for Jason's birthday. We stayed in the sameplace as last year, up in the woods. We had one rainy day, but we had a relaxing time anyways.

Great Uncle Ray comes for a visit

Logan Smiles!

Logan is 8 weeks old now, and I finally caught his smile on camera. He's starting to smile back at us when we talk to him. It's so much fun!

Are you ready for some football?!

It's football season! Time to cheer on our favorite team...the Washington Redskins! Colby, Logan, and even Mom & Dad are all wearing our Redskins garb to help the Skins beat the Dallas Cowboys! Go Skins!








We won! HAIL TO THE REDSKINS!

Brotherly Love

Colby is doing such a great job as a big brother! He helps out by bringing us Logan's paci or blanket, helps change diapers, and holds Logan's hand when he's fussy. Here are some of my favorite pictures so far of Colby loving on his little brother.



I take a lot more pictures with my phone these days since it's easier to hold than my DSLR, so these 2 aren't as good, but I still like them of our 2 boys.

First Day of School

Colby started a pre-school co-op program this week. He was so excited to wear his backpack and go to school. Everything went well the first day, so we'll see how it goes next week!

Labor Day Weekend - Rehoboth Beach

We spent a fun long weekend in Rehoboth Beach for Labor Day weekend with Gigi (Jason's mom) and Uncle Matt. Colby enjoyed playing on the beach and walking the boardwalk. Logan did well too since the weather wasn't too hot and there was a nice breeze. He did great at night and has started sleeping 4-5 hours at a time! Mommy is happy about that! :)
Colby is VERY excited to be at the beach! :)

After Hurrican Earl came through, the water was covering most of the beach and left little pools for the kids to play in.






Logan woke me up early, so we took a walk on the beach and saw lots of dolphins swimming by and a nice sunrise.


Later that night, we saw a beautiful sunset in Dewey


On the way home, Logan got fussy in the car seat, so Colby wanted to hold his hand to help calm him down. A few minutes later, they were both asleep and still holding hands! So cute!
