Happy 4th of July

I know it has been too long since I have updated. Poor Grayson is a newborn in my last post and he will be 4 months old soon. We are enjoying the boys, but they certainly keep us busy. Grayson is quite the mover and loves to smile. Landon is a great big brother and loves to make his brother smile. We hope you all had a great 4th of July. We celebrated with our friends in their neighborhood. Landon was so excited to march in the parade. He carried his drum the whole way and played. It was very cute. He also went in the dunk tank and did not like the fireworks anymore this year than last. Grayson just chilled. He was content to just be held and watch all the action. He took a few naps during the day and liked watching all the kids.

Grayson Conner Holmes

Ready and waiting at 5 am. Grayson Conner born at 7:56 am. 7 lbs 8 oz 19 1/2 inches long. We were so excited to meet our little guy.

Growing

Well, a baby is certainly on the way. We are excited and feel blessed to be awaiting the little guy's arrival. Thanks for the patience with the long stretches of time between posts. We will post our Christmas pictures and snow pictures soon. At least before the baby comes in March. Just kidding. I hope.

The stockings were hung......

Every Santa needs a reindeer. Sorry Giggs.

Landon loved decorating his tree this year. He unwrapped each ornament like it was a special present. It brought back lots of memories of when my brothers and I used to do the same thing. We got the house ready for the big day and even bought special cereal at the grocery store as a treat(mostly for mommy and daddy ) to enjoy the holiday. I think we have started a new tradition. It was too funny to hear Landon yell out each morning that he wanted to eat "Chucky Arms" for breakfast. In case you aren't sure they were Lucky Charms.

Cutting Down the Tree

Mommy, Landon, and brother on the way.

Helping Daddy. Notice decorations in his hands. Christmas card picture.

Grammie and Pop Pop.

TIMBER

That's right, time to cut down the Christmas tree. We headed up to our favorite Snowy Peaks Farm to cut down our tree. Landon mostly played in the dirt and decorated the trees with debris he found on the ground. We also took our annual Christmas card picture which I annually never send out because I run out of time. So you can see it on the blog.

LA Thanksgiving

Happy Thanksgiving in LA

We had a great time in LA at Thanksgiving with Aunt Sheri and Uncle Tim. Landon loved getting to spend time with them and going to the beach. We ate great food at the Walsh house and then enjoyed some Karaoke. Landon loved singing with the microphone and playing his guitar. He was good entertainment.

Happy Birthday

Happy Birthday Great Grandpa Sam

We celebrated my grandpa's 80th birthday in November. Landon was so excited to play his guitar and sing the happy birthday song.
