New Year's Eve 2010

We celebrated the New Year with the Conley and Mullins families. Scott and Michelle hosted a fun party where the kids rang in the new year New York Style (at 9:00). Mommy and Daddy actually got to indulge in some holiday fun too. It was great to have adult time while the kids played. Fun times, making memories......






New Year

Seeing Double

Da Nanananananna, Batman! Holden and Aidan's favorite thing to do is wear their costumes and talk to each other through their walkie talkies. If you drive down our street on any given day, this is what you'll see - two buds saving the day.


Tuckered Out


Holden and Daddy sneak in some zzzs after a long day of play.

Christmas 2009

It was a very "Bat" Christmas at the Fletcher House this year. Holden got a Batman costume and walkie talkies, and Cash got a bblack push truck. Holden has worn his costume everyday since, and Cash's truck has become the Batmobile when playing outside. Nana Judy and Papa Jim got Holden a Batcave toy which he LOVES. Nana Nancy and Papa Gene got the boys a train set which will be awesome around our Christmas tree for years to come. Christmas was so great this year because Holden really got what it all meant. Cash cruised and went with the flow. He enjoyed the paper and bows, and liked to play with each new gift that was opened. After we opened presents, we played for a bit and then went to Aunt Tabi and Uncle Mike's for dinner. We had delicious Mexican food, and had fun catching up with them. I'm still a little sad it's all over - we had the BEST Christmas ever!

Christmas Eve

On Christmas Eve, we went to The Brigantine for dinner and then drove through Del Mar's Holiday of Lights. Once we got home, the boys opened new Christmas jammies, set out a note and cookies for Santa, and then went to bed so Santa could come.







The Grace Girls

Lori, Ryan and Charlie came for a visit on December 21st. We went to Sammy's Woodfired Pizza for lunch and then exchanged gifts. I didn't get many pictures. Man, I always do that. I just have too much fun chatting to take many photos. Lori got some cute ones - check out her blog at http://www.growingupgrace.blogspot.com


Hullabaloo & Santa

The Conleys had a Christmas party for the little ones on Tuesday, December 15th. Hullabaloo came to sing Christmas tunes and Santa even stopped by! Cash wasn't sure what to think of Santa, but Holden hopped right up and told him he wanted "bat toys" (Batman). When Santa was leaving, Holden asked him where he landed his sleigh. He explained that he had to park it at the airport, and that he drove in a car to the party. Too cute!




Oh Christmas Tree! Oh Christmas Tree!

We got our Christmas tree on December 6th and decorated it that night. I got the boys matching Santa jammies to get them excited for the holiday season. Here's their little photo session before we put Cash to bed so we could decorate.


Playtime

These pictures were taken on December 5th, one day after Cash's first birthday. They really represent what Cashy loves these days: playing with Holden, exploring the toy closet, and climbing the stairs. Ugh...I spend most of my days chasing him up the stairs. I know, we need to get a baby gate but we just haven't yet. Cash loves his bouncer and loves playing with Holden's big boy toys like monster trucks. Cash also LOVES playing in the kitchen. His favorites are the pots and pans and the drawer with all the ziplocs. He rips them all out of the box and throws them on the floor. These boys are a handful but are tons of fun.
