New outfit!

This very cute outfit came from Uncle Sam and Aunt Laura. It's a 3mo size; I though she would be "swimming" in it (not so as you can see). A quick wash this morning and I decided to go ahead and put it on her for the Jones Family Christmas hoop-la. She was the hit of the party, until the other newest addition came, so they shared the title. But isn't this dress just so dag-gone cute?!
She really wasn't up for the pictures, but I made her sit up and she wasn't a huge fan of that. She really just wanted to lay down and go back to sleep.
Looking ever so thoughtful... or just wondering if filling her diaper like this would make it leak out the sides.

Santa Baby

This would have been a picture with all the kids but Aidan was having issues. Dad took him over to Santa (being played by a family friend) and as soon as they were close enough to touch Aidan pulled a Christmas story move. He screamed and cried and had a death grip around grandpa's neck. Aidan likes the idea of Santa and the pictures and movies.... just not the real thing yet.

This was the first year Erica wanted to sit on his lap. Before she was always a bit unsure. But she ran to the room and waited her turn, then jumped on his lap when she could.

Our Tree

Dad brought over our christmas tree and helped set it up for us. Mom helped with the lights. Erica ans Aidan "helped" with the decorating.... can you see the 'L' shape of ornament placement? Well because I forgot to put up the silver garland I figured I could "fix" things a bit when they went to bed.

This is what I did. You can't see a lot of the ornaments cause I put some in the tree. But when Erica got up the next day and saw the tree she said "who messed up our tree?!" I guess there is no more fooling her. I told her maybe some big elf came along and "messed" it up. She was fine with that answer.

Our tree with the pretty lights on. My favorite thing to do is turn all the lights off and turn the tree on and just sit like that at night. All the lights reflecting off the tinsel, ornaments and wall... very pretty!

Sofia Alexandra Webb

Here is the short story: went into labor (new concept for me) thursday night around 6ish, didn't know it until 12:45am on friday. Started to time the contractions, they were 1-3min apart. Called the doc, she said come in; called up parents and they came rushing over. Got the the hospital and in my room by 3:30am, got some kind of drug to ease the pain sometime later, by 7:30 am I had the doc and nurses runnin around, she was born by 8:04am December 5 2008.

Her stats: 9 lbs 0.7 oz (biggest grand-baby to date on my side), 20 1/2" long, and her head was 13 3/4". She felt big but she really doesn't look all that big does she...

I love this one.

A nice big yawn. I love the fact that she will be sleeping for most of the day and night. It will make my job a bit easier.


These next two are really cute. She hasn't started to suck her thumb yet, but she did suck on some of her fingers at the hospital.

Pictures from Aunty Amy

Aunt Amy and Grandma Webb came last week (12th) for a visit. I have never had a "baby bump" picture taken of me with the other two kids, so I got one. This is about how big I got with the other two as well. Pay no attention to the hair... I don't fuss with it anymore.


This is my favorite! When anyone leaves my kids HAVE to look out the window to watch. This is generally what everyone will see when they leave my house at night. My dad loves it when they do this when he comes "I can just see a silhouette of a body and the blinds move". I'm in the background figuring out what to have for dinner, when I looked up I just saw Amy leave the window and head back to the car.


Aidan with Grandma Webb, he really was happy to be with her despite the look on his face.


My Boo! Yes, she still looks like me with very little Jeff.


Erica was so happy to have Alison down to play, even if it was only for a few hours. She just loves her cousin! Aidan was mostly happy to have someone else pay attention to him, mommy is lackin the effort right now.

Parade of Costumes

You already seen pictures of Erica's costume. This is what Aidan wore and no one said anything about him not being dressed up. Mom made him a little shirt with a mouse in a pumpkin and he wore that over his regular shirt.


This is my niece Saidee, she was Dumba (not Dumbo). She went out with us in Grandpa Adams' arms, but she didn't last too long. She wanted to sleep more than join in the fun.


This is my nephew Aylor. He was the cutest giraffe ever! What made this even more cute was the fact that he had on a monkey leash... that boy has so much energy he would have been way down the street before we could catch up. So he was a giraffe with a monkey on his back.

All the kids just loved going out to get candy. Erica would say after EVERY house "can we go to another house?" Then Aidan would ask "noder house?" I couldn't get him to say Trick or Treat but he always said Thank You. Surprisingly enough he has a small stash of candy that he can eat, whether he eats if or not is the real question.

Night Of Tricks


After we took the kids around to get candy (for mommy and daddy of course) Aunt Katy asked Erica to help her pass out the candy. Well the boys wanted to help too. She had her hands full keeping them from giving ALL the candy away at once and taking turns giving the candy to the kids.



The real trick was keeping Aylor and Aidan from eating the candy. Aylor was too quick, by the time we would catch him he already had the candy unwrapped and in his mouth. Aidan was a bit slower so he was easy to catch. The pile of wrappers is only SOME of what Aylor got to that we took away.
