Our Holidays as a Family of Four



So much to celebrate & so many wonderful people to celebrate with



There sure are a lot of winter birthdays





Go Wisconsin!

 

Trevor and Cecilia bringing in the Christmas tree



Our FIRST Christmas tree EVER!



Atticus & Cecilia's Christmas stockings, salvaged from the pile of clothes
going to the second hand store



Christmas morning was a fabulous and quiet family affair





The rest of the week was filled with family outings around Boise:



The aquarium



The reptiles that reside at the aquarium???






The art museum



Camel's Back Park





 








Nordic Skiing at Bogus Basin



Play-time and lunch at the Nordic Lodge with friends after a long ski

We also enjoyed much needed family-time in our cozy home:



Fashion shows galore



Bath-time (often with three family members:)



Long naps and lots of kisses



Tummy-time (as long as it was tolerated)

Atticus Arrives!



Contractions are consistent! It is 7pm. Let's go for a walk!



Contractions are about 6-8 minutes apart.
It is 1:45am. Let's get to the hospital!



C'mon Trevor!



Within 2 hours, our baby boy was born!






Oma & Cecilia visit just a few hours after our son's birth



Cecilia was so excited to meet her brother!






And Oma was thrilled to meet her grandson!


After meeting her brother, Cecilia went to school to participate in her Thanksgiving program 


We enjoyed a "celebration dinner" before we left the hospital
