I'm back

Hello, hello; anyone out there? I'm finally back from a LONG blogging break. Not sure what my deal has been--just couldn't muster up any energy to write. But, I reminded myself that this blog is for the boys and our family and friends. So, I'm back with the intention of posting several times a week. Here's a quick run down of what's been going on with our little fam:

Sammy is growing so fast! Rolling over from back to tummy was so 2009. The kid is rolling all over the floor, playing with toys, cooing away, and even had his first bite of applesauce today. He sure loves his mommy; my nice way of saying he is a total mama's boy.

Max is CRAZY! He is so full of life and energy. He keep us on our toes and is probably the driving force behind me loosing baby weight. I never have a chance to relax when he's awake. So, thanks Max for helping me lose my tummy!

We got the amazing gift of San Diego Zoo passes from Grandma and Grandpa Mitchell. The passes also include the San Diego Animal Park (pictured below). Here's Max with the GG's; his way of saying giraffe.

We got to go out for New Years Eve!!!! Thanks mom and dad for hanging with the boys. The theme was masquerade and we decided to be crafty and make our own. Here is Chris' masterpiece. Definitely the best mask there.

My brother, uncle Ryan, left for the Navy today. We are going to miss him a lot; especially Max. But, we know he is going to do great in basic training. We are so proud of you Ryan.

Here we are--the tired parents. Not matter how challenging some days can be, our little guys are worth it. Here's to a happy healthy year!
