Christmas 2009

Konrad in his Santa suit at Sarah and Bill's house, Christmas 2009.

Mikey running around with his blankey and a book. This is a common look for Mikey, he loves his blanket and he loves to read.

Konrad has a knowing little grin on his face and he is enjoying a the remote control, which he rarely gets to play with. He knows that this means he is in control of the buttons.

Zachary trying to figure things out. He is our engineer, always trying to take things apart and put them back together again. He is very patient and determined.

Christmas 2009 was an adventure as always. We spent an evening at Sarah, Bill and Finley's house with the Richardson family and with Grandma Carol and Grandpa Kurt. Then we spent Christmas morning at Grandma Debbie and Grandpa Tom's house. In the afternoon, we went to Aunt Bonnie's house to see the Huber family and Grandpa John and Grandma Kelly. The boys handled all of the excitement pretty well. We had a few melt downs, Mikey of all babies was the one to tolerate things the least. He wanted to be held and he did not want to play. I think he got tired, no that I can blame him. Zachary did very well and after a few minutes of warming up, ran around the house and played. Konrad pretty much wanted to be held by Mike, but he let a few other people hold him and talk to him. We ended up having to leave at 7 or 8pm because the boys just could not make it any later, it had been a long, long day.
