Porter's First Vacation!

We recently traveled from Houston to Seattle to see the family and spend the holidays. Porter did really well on the plane which was unexpected as the day before he had to go into the doctor to get his 2 month old immunizations. He had one by mouth, one shot in his left leg and 2 shots in his right. His poor legs were bothering him all night and we didn't think he would cheer up by out 6 am flight. Thankfully we were wrong. Porter slept through the drive to the airport, through security and woke up only briefly throughout the 6.5 hour flight to eat. He was very happy and content to sleep in our arms all day long.

Over the weekend we drove from Seattle to Yakima to visit Brandon's Mom,
and Grandparents. We spent a few days in their warm house while it lightly snowed outside.

Porter put on his bear suit and ventured out. He attempted to make a snow angel but when his hand touched the snow he was not thrilled about the cold and asked to be taken inside again.






We are all having a wonderful time in Washington and are thrilled that Christmas is nearly here! Happy holidays everyone!

Thanksgiving & More

Happy Thanksgiving! I hope your holiday was as fun as ours. We celebrated with our Texas friends and Morgan drove all the way from Phoenix to spend the weekend with us! We had a blast! We celebrated with true southern style...fried turkey. We couldn't fry just one bird, we had to go all out and fry 3 turkeys. 3 Turkeys! That is how much Brandon loves leftover turkey so much he may never wake up from this turkey over load!
Porter's hair is turning more and more red every day. He is growing so fast. I can't believe he is 6 weeks old already.


A few days after Porter was born we were at the Doctor's and Porter went through several outfits during our visit. I was afraid that he had no clothes to go home in, but at the bottom of the diaper bag I found these pants. They were huge on him! He was so little even the little newborn hat seemed to swallow up his head.

6 weeks later I put him in the same pants and hat to show how much he has grown!





Brandon went to the dentist the other day...guess which side of his face is still numb.
