Un-Wrapping Christmas...

A few days before Christmas, on Daddy's Birthday

Kisses from Big Brother and Big Sister

Christmas Eve

Baby B chattin' it up with Nana

Hunter at Gram and Papa's on Christmas Eve

Lilee Boo opening a few gifts from the fam...and she's soooo excited!

Before Bed on Christmas Eve...ready for Santa!

 Christmas Morning...they woke us up at 6:20 am!

Clothes...clothes...clothes...that's all he wanted.

Lilee thought her new light up Sketchers were soooo cool!

Her favorite present!

American Girl Doll and matching comfy's!

Our handsome boy...

...and growing bigger by the minute!

How 'bout some lips?

Undeniable...

Hmmm...I don't think they'll ever be able to deny that their related.  Am I crazy, or do these two look reeeeally similar??

Random Moments...

Just a few pics of the past 6 weeks.  Wish I had the time to post a few more...but these days, I can't seem to find the time to even exhale.  But I'm lovin' it! 

This is "typical Lilee"...always lovin' on her baby brother.

Again...lots of lovin' from big sis.

She's always "testing" everything out for her baby brother.

 Braxton...2 months old.

Yep...he's in the big boy bumbo seat!

Just happy to be here!

Always smiling...and making mommy melt.

Something To Make Ya Smile...

I began to notice that Lilee was becoming a little "TV crazy"...so, I made her take a break from the cartoons and told her to "use your imagination and do something constructive".  A little while later, I walked around the corner and saw poor Max.  She had decided to play "cowgirl"...and was forcing Max to join in the fun.  

He was not amused...but it sure made me giggle.

For The Love Of My Lilee...

I knew it would happen sooner or later...I just didn't want to miss the subtle hints.  After the addition of Baby Braxton, one thing I knew I could count on ...was change.  I knew it would be hard to divide my time and attention equally, I just didn't know it was going to be this hard.  Maybe it's just me being overly paranoid...wanting to make sure Lilee doesn't suddenly feel pushed aside.  Either way, I decided to leave the laundry, picking up, getting bottles ready, etc. for later...and give my Lilee Boo what she wanted most...some much needed "Mommy Time".  

First things first...
must get baby to sleep. (done!)

Second...

gather all "the girls" for a quick game of pretend princess. (check!)

Third...

assemble and prepare for the perfect "dolly tea party". (voila!)

Fourth...
teach Mommy how to properly hold a teacup.  (got it!)

Fifth...

do a taste test.  (mmmm...yummy!) 

And finally...

enjoy the next few moments of uninterrupted "Mommy and Lilee time".  

(...at least until Braxton wants in on some of the fun!)

Just Because...

3 of a kind...

Giggling goofy's...

Braxton showin' off his new hat...

Sup?

Trick-Or-Treat Fun...
