The beginning of February we got to attend Sadee's baptism. 
She looked so grown-up and the baptism was especially touching. It was just a family baptism so it felt to me much more special and especially for Sadee.
Congratulations Sadee! Thanks for letting us come to your special day!
The highlight of Christmas 2011 was being able to be with Auntie Kari again. That was awesome. Collin loved her. 
Again, you can see the love...
My brother brought his Rock Band to play. It was so fun. Liam is going to be a rockstar drummer someday. 
He got so mad when we said he couldn't eat the drumsticks. Go figure. 
The little kids table for Christmas Eve dinner was fun, despite Collin being the only boy. 
Liam got to sit on this little attached booster to the bar. He was thinking... I AM SO COOL. Really....he loved this thing. And I actually got to eat somewhat in peace...
The elves came and we got to open fun presents. 
Trucks....can't go wrong with trucks for Collin.
Painting and art is good for Sadee.
Liam, which is what I thought, liked playing with the wrapping paper best. 
Yes, love that wrapping paper.
More just random pics
This fire engine truck from the elves...it made a lot of noise which was awesome for Liam, not for the rest of us :)
It was so fun to play with cousins.
Christmas Morning was also fun. 
This is the fun book that Santa brought Liam.
Stockings are always one of my favorite parts of Christmas. Liam had fun opening his stocking with a LOT of help from Collin and Sadee and Ava. 
Everyone takes turns, usually from youngest to oldest. 
Santa brought Collin a tool workbench. He had lots of fun with it.
Liam especially liked to take parts off the tool bench and eat the parts. See a trend here? 
Santa brought Liam a fun little wire toy that he likes to play with, especially if someone plays it with him. 
Big trucks again
My sister-in-law Brianne MADE these nurse and doctor scrubs for Sadee and Ava. Big hit.
Family picture... of course, everyone's personalities showing through. Liam don't fence me in, and Collin, I just want to stare at you.
Supercape
Fun little noise maching for Liam. 
Get a load of that hair!
Daddy helped Collin build this huge tower. 
Sadee and Ava makign their fun frames.
Liam also got to go on his first swimming adventure at the Collette's pool. 
Let's just say he LOVED it....way more than even Collin loves swimming, and that is saying something. 
Sadee and Ava came into town also in October for a visit, and we went to see the witches at Gardner Village. We bought treats to eat while we were there.
Of course, Collin is in his "I don't want my picture taken".
The hula hoop was a favorite of the girls.
Brianne was nice to carry Collin for awhile.
Liam, unfortunately, was sick.... he ended up being diagnosed with a double ear infection later that night.... poor baby...
Playing the piano
More pictures...
That night while at Jeff and Brianne's apartment, they played doctor and nurse. Too funny....since Brianne really is a nurse :)
Sadee absolutely LOVED Liam..."I love Collin too Alisa, but I have seen him a lot. I need to hold Liam now." She was a great little helper.... and entertainer. LOVES Sadee!
Had to get a picture with the tangled hair. Love that hair.
Avaholding Liam.
Collin wanted a picture then...once again, I always seem to get a picture that fits everyone's personalities to a T.
We are so silly!
I had never been either, and granted, the food is okay, but the best part for Collin were these little toys you could ride on. This super nice random grandma gave us some leftover tokens. I knew Collin would be fine just sitting on them....
but once he knew they could move? He was in heaven.
The spaceship one was very cool. Two people could sit in it...if you are squished :)
Of course we had to ride the bulldozer...
But Collin loved the train....what can I say? He LOVES trains.
Sadee liked the motorcycle. She looks so big...
Thanks for letting us come. Liam...he just hung out in the car seat. They also had this massive slide Collin got to go down "by myself" and he thought he was all that.
