So are the Halls of my life!!

Jeremy has been sporting this Mohawk hairstyle for a little while now. I'm waiting to see when it will end. He's always wanted a buzzed short cut. Until this year, when he started school, he realized what else was out there. Now, it's all about what his friends are doing and how their hair is. So, when it was time to cut hair he asked for a mohawk. I said yes, thinking he'd try it out and change him mind eventually. Well, here I am still waiting. Then the other day he says, 'Mom, why won't my hair stick straight up like so and so'? I told him he needed hair gel to get that effect. So, now he have hair gel and mohawks. Life is great.

This is how Christopher entertains hisself while Jeremy and I clean their room. My little pianist.

This is playing on the floor, all alone and undisturbed.

Jeremy comes along to play and . . . . .

Voila!!!! Well, at least it's out of love when Jeremy "helps" Christopher.

Afternoon at the Park

The sun was shining, not much wind, we had to take advantage of this day.


What's an outing without snacks? Do you wonder why he's so 'round'? Don't.


Down the slide. Big brother helper.


Uncle Andy home for Spring Break. Isn't this picture great? My favorite of the day.

Great, I'm going to have two monkey children.

We had such a fun day. Smiles all around!

I had to include this one. For you who know Jeremy, this is so typical. I don't know exactly what face he was told to pull, but here you go.

Water Lover

Christopher loves the bath tub. He would play all day in there if I let him. It's funny. He plays and splashes, not noticing the water gets colder. Then, all of a sudden, he does this very dramatic shiver, looks at me, and begs with his eyes. Whether he's begging to get out or for more water, I'm not sure.

So much fun!!!

Nakey time is the Best!!!

Aww, it's time to get out!!

Christopher's new trick!

Christopher started clapping the other day, especially when he drops a toy from his highchair. He'll look at me and smile and clap. Yes he is adorable.

This is before, while playing.

This is after he dropped it. Now he's clapping.

Arizona Trip

We went to Tucson, AZ for New Years. We left on New Year's Eve, that was different. No celebrating there. We stayed with Wes's sister and her family down there. They blessed their month old baby boy Oliver that Sunday we were down there. It was great to see everyone. Wes's dad and RaeAnn came down from Seattle too. Saturday was a day of play. We took our Christmas marshmallow shooters to the park and had a blast. Grandpa Hall took all the kids our 'shopping' for their Christmas presents. And I personally enjoyed the wonderful warm hot sun the whole time. We left a snow storm behind us and welcomed the 72 degree weather with open arms, T-shirts, and flip flops. It was sad to come home. Fun trip!!!

the pics are kind of in the wrong order


Family picture, we're just missing RaeAnn who was taking it.


Notice how sunny and bright it is, yeah.


Christopher and cousin Idris, a meaningful look.

Jeremy showing me the cactus garden at our pit stop.

SUN, SUN, SUN


At first Christopher wasn't so sure about all the traveling. Love this face.

He did really good though. He slept real well and didn't cry too bad, only when I took my turn driving and he couldn't see me anymore. Mama's boy.

Cute brothers cuddling on the hotel bed. I think Jeremy loved the hotels more than anything else on this trip. ha ha ha

Six Months Old

So, Christopher is six months now. He's such a big boy. He's 17 lbs 11 oz. He has two teeth on the bottom. We love him and just can't get enough of his smiles.


He went under there backwards. Goofy kid!!


"Uh, hello mom"


He can sit up, really, he just was surprised by the camera I think.

Christmas

I know it's late, but here are some things we did at Christmas time.


Jeremy and Santa. "yes, I've been good"

Gingerbread houses at Grandma's.

Christopher in his Santa suit. So cute
