Hello Santa

We just had a visit with Santa, he was at the mall if you can believe that! You might have thought he would be busy in his workshop, but no, sitting at the mall!

Check out some pictures of Thomas and Santa and no crying and no tears! We are proud parents, lets just see how long the streak will last.


We wish all our blog readers a very Merry Christmas, and be sure to check back next week for more pictures. We will be traveling to snowy Maryland for Christmas and New Years, and of course more pictures and stories will come from there!

Don's Graduation

Tonight was a big night with a lot to celebrate. Jenn and Thomas along with Teta, Gramma, Steve, Leia, Eddie, Gabriel and Kiera all came to watch and cheer for me at my graduation ceremony. I just completed my Master's in Elementary Education and here are some pictures from the ceremony, enjoy!

Sick Day

This past Tuesday Thomas awoke with a fever and an ear infection. Jenn took the day off and the doctor prescribed some medicine. This is a short video I took of Thomas to show just how tired and unhappy he has been the last couple days. The good news is, that Thomas has been catching up on sleep (during the day, he's been up all night) and we are expecting a recovery within the next couple days.

Fun in the Tub

This is a video of Thomas taking a bath. Most of the time he enjoys getting clean and likes the water a lot. Another reason for the video was because we're always trying to catch Thomas 'talking' which he does a lot for us, but when a camera or telephone shows up, he becomes silent.
Enjoy the video!

Early Family Christmas

Last weekend was a special weekend here in Arizona because Auntie Laura flew in from CT for the weekend. And because Laura works for ESPN and they make her work on Christmas (basketball games are played on Christmas), we celebrated our Christmas a couple weeks early.

Here are pictures from our very special Christmas and a few captions to go along with each of the photos.
