Gingerbread Houses

Image
On Friday morning, we kicked off the Christmas season by getting together with LJ and Evan's cousins to make (our first ever) gingerbread houses! Everyone trying to figure out where to begin! Moms 'built' the houses, put icing all over, and then we let the little ones take over! LJ was excited and got right into it! I did not put a thing on his- he picked every piece of candy and put it on! Everyone working very hard!! LJ completely covered both sides of the roof, put 1-2 candies on the front, and then needed to take a break to play! He returned to add the red fondant and a few more things to the front...  Then he just played with the candy -putting into different bowls and lining it up, etc... Eagle Jr would decorate a little, eat a little, decorate, eat.... Eat some more! LJ's finished master piece! Our first Christmas decoration is on display!! A hug for his cousin! Kate helping Eagle Jr...

Gigi and LJ being silly eating pretzels! Tummy time!  Out for a walk wearing one of his favorites- the lion hat! Fun at the Farmer's market on Saturday morning with Queenie, Grandad, Kate, and Lauren... Evan after his FIRST roll on Saturday night!! He went from his tummy to back twice! We haven't seen it any more since... LOVE this picture -and the moment! Grandad reading to the boys and Kate... While in Little Gym class on Tuesday, LJ had to run over to Evan every 5-10 minutes to check on him, rock him, put his paci in, tell him what he just did, etc.... Was very sweet!! LJ playing after breakfast- just making me laugh! This boy loves wearing all his hats! A kiss for Evan while he drinks his milk... Are these just random boxes on our floor, or.... LJ's first self-made fort!! He made it all by himself- moved the boxes and everything! He kept going in to hide, popping out and took toys in there to play!
