Christmas has always been a relaxing holiday, wow two kids can change that!

It seemed pretty relaxing for this little cookie though!

the traditional Christmas pj picture-- Sienna loving her baby

helping daddy & Uncle Mikey put her new kitchen together


checking out her new cool kitchen-- she LOVES it!

who knew we could have skipped the gifts and just given her bows


she fell in love with Maddie's new baby doll cradle- she obviously thought she was the doll

and boy is it fun to sit in a pyrex dish when you are one!




how cute is this tired little munchkin sporting our favorite Christmas shirt?!? NO we will not have another newborn wearing this next Christmas!!!

we needed a cute picture with out littlest baby!

Utah brought us lots of snow for Christmas, so we put Omar to work- does he not look like a San Diego snow-shoveler??

So Christmas may not be relaxing anymore but when you see this smile who cares!!!

Perfect Addition

We just love our new little addition to our family!

He is such a cute little snuggle bunny whether he is snuggling one of us, his hands, a blanket or a sweet little bear!

He has long skinny little fingers and the funniest looking little feet!

Look at those beautiful bright eyes...

and don't forget his great receeding hairline-- oh but I LOVE that black hair, just like daddy's!

Sienna is loving her new little buddy- most of the time!

and now this mama has her very own mama's boy!

These are just a few reasons Malachi is the PERFECT ADDITION to our family!!

cRazY giRLiE

I swear I do not have a favorite child-- Sienna is just always doing something crazy that reminds me to get my camera out and take pictures! Poor Malachi is going to have a lot less baby pictures with all this choas-- but I promise pictures of my little bug are coming this week! Until then here are some more of our little spaz!

She is very territorial of the swing-- you would think she remembered it from when she was this little!

The beginning of a Mac attack!

She climbed on grandpa's lap to steal his treat-- and believe me she ate it ALL!

This picture keeps flipping the wrong way when I download it but Sienna likes to sit on everything from keyboards to basket edges to teddy bears but her absolute favorite is her cousin Maddie! Too bad Maddie only weighs about 5 lbs more than her, notice the tears!

Sharing a chair!

A Utah Stroll

Wow walks are different here in Utah-- layers and layers instead of sun and sweat!

We took what started off as a nice walk, kids happy and then...

My one year old, who is convinced she is two(and by that I mean a terrible two)- threw a fit and wanted out. After she twisted herself off Omar's shoulders we decided to let her stand in the bottom of the stroller-- which turned into her wanting to sit in the basket, even if it might break her neck!



NO we were not torturing her-- this is what she was fighting for!

Can anyone tell me why my sweet baby girl has turned into the princess of tantrums?? Isn't she too young for this???

TIRED...

has a whole new meaning around here...

Omar is seriously sleeping kneeling down!

Omar was replaced by Pooh Bear at some point in my accidental nap!

Week One-- 2 kiddos!

Our first week at home has been a big adjustment and pure chaos but we have enjoyed our new little baby- here is our week in pictures!

brother and sister Thanksgiving pictures

I think Sienna has fond memories of the moses basket-- she wants to get in it every chance she gets!

snacking on Thanksgiving-- too bad she still has NO TEETH, so she just got to suck on the carrots with 2 binkis in her hands!

Our traditional Thanksgiving was cancelled this year- we had a little too much action with grandpa in the hospital and all, so the boys barbequed for us instead!

Our one and only family picture so far- I am pretty sure it sums up the week!

we are lucky when she is LOVING on the babe


O loves to read to his babies, so while all was quiet and Si was napping O took his chance to read to Mac!


O is stoked to have his boy to watch football with!


This picture is so special to me! Grandpa Vawdrey was diagnosed with cancer earlier this year and one of the first things he told grandma after was that he was going to meet his new great-grandbaby! Wednesday when we were being released from the hospital grandpa stopped breathing and was rushed to the hospital. It was a close call and I was so afraid he was going to miss his chance to meet Malachi even though he made it to his birthday! Grandpa spent days in ICU, so we could not take Mac to meet him. When he finally came home I was so happy to take Malachi out to see him!
