One Month

Can you believe it?? This month has flown by. Collins is getting so big and starting to be awake more. I am starting to learn the art of juggling two. Most of the time it's not to hard, but there is definetely moments of chaos! Collins has earned the nickname "love nugget" except when he is grouchy - then its just "nugget". I am still up at nights a good bit, but I am hoping that will be coming to an end soon. He loves to be held and snuggle! I am so excited for the holidays coming up and all the fun that will be. I can't imagine this holiday season without Love Nugget! This Christmas is going to be super fun with Jack too because he is old enough now to really "get it". He reminds us every day of what he would like.
In other news Me and Brendan got a crock -pot that we are obsessed about! After a delicious meal from Stephanie it inspired us to get one. Now everything needs to be cooked in the pot. Stay tuned for some delicious recipes we have discovered.
Other than that we are just keeping warm by the fire - that we basically keep burning all day long - and watching our boys grow.
Here are some 1 month pics of Love Nugget...

I made a bottle so Brendan could be a part of the feeding experience and Jack got in on the fun.

Notice there are no pictures of me? We are going to have to work on that - I am always the one behind the lens! Based on the pictures it looks like the boys are growing up without a mother!

Awww...Love Nugget, that is a cute nickname. I love the pictures. We're getting excited about Christmas this year too. Tyson doesn't understand that Christmas is a day. He keeps asking to go to Christmas... he actually threw a tantrum the other day b/c we weren't going to Christmas that day....the mind of a 2 year old!

He's such a beautiful baby! I've always thought Jack looks like you, but I think Collins looks like Brendan. The weird thing is that I think Jack and Collins look alike. Does anyone else say that or is it just me?? Anyways, I guess y'all all look like. Such a cute family (even though you're not in the pix...I know you're cute Court!). Miss you!!

He is absolutely adorable! Thanks for your sweet comment on my blog!!! I love my crockpot too and would LOVE to share some great recipes with you. You have to try this...put some chicken in your crockpot, pour BBQ sauce over it (I usually use 2 bottles and a little water), and cook all day on low...DELICIOUS BBQ!
