Family Fun

Aunt Christy, Will, Aunt Nicole, and Leslie decorated some Christmas cookies. They were yummy!!

We went to the Children's Museum on Saturday. The carousal was a big hit.

Andrew's Birthday

Andrew got so many nice things for his birthday. My sisters came into town to celebrate his birthday and an early Christmas. Josh and Andrew getting ready to blow out his candle.

All the kids - Adrienne, Leslie, Will, and Andrew

He enjoyed unwrapping his presents more than playing with them.

Andrew and Alaina Celebrate Turning 1!

We had a birthday party for Andrew and Alaina's first birthday. Our small group came over and we had dinner and some cupcakes.

Alaina, Andrew, and Will

This is Andrew's first taste of cake. He wasn't too sure about it at first but it got better quickly.

Our First Snowman

This is Will and Andrew's first snowman. Our neighbors Caitlyn and Brennan helped. Will loved piling snow on a shovel and dumping it into a pile! I think they love the snow!

Now the snow has melted, and every time we go outside, I hear, "Mommy, where the snowman?" I don't think a 2 1/2 year old grasps the weather cycle yet.

The First Snowfall

On Wednesday, we woke up to snow! Will was so excited! He couldn't wait to go outside so when Josh came home, we all went out. It was a big ordeal getting all our snow things on. We had a great time!

Andrew couldn't really move with his snowpants and coat on. He looked like a little marshmallow.

Will enjoyed being outside and running around. He made "train tracks" in the snow. He was pretty excited about it.

Josh was showing Andrew the snow. We can't wait for snow!

Winter Wonderland

We went to the Children's Museum with our friends Todd and Elise and their daughter Alaina on Saturday. During the month of December, the museum is decorated with all sorts of Christmas decorations. Here is Andrew and Alaina dressed up as a toy soldier and a ballerina.

We rode on the carosaul. Will wanted to ride on the giraffes. This was Andrew's first ride on an animal. He was always in the Snugli. He wasn't so sure about it but seemed to like the music.

Here we are going down the big slide they have in their entryway. Will and Josh went down together but Josh had the camera so we have no picture.

Christmas Preparations

Will helped me put up the Christmas lights one morning when Andrew was napping. He liked putting the lights on our bushes. He is a great helper!

This was taken when we were hunting through the forest or as some would call it, Home Depot, looking for the perfect Hahn family Christmas tree. The boys liked running around the garden center more than looking at trees.

Andrew helped check to see if all the lights worked.

Fall Pictures

This fall we went to a park in southern Illinois. Andrew discoved dirt and woodchips. He enjoyed picking it up and playing in the dirt. Will enjoyed playing on this "dinosaur."
