This One's For You, Ang!

So we have been talking about Christmas and Santa A LOT! Solace and Canaan have heard stories about Jesus and the big guy all month long. I have enjoyed using Santa as a sort of threat for bad behavior- as in "Santa is watching"... anyway today Solly was being rather naughty and I told him that he needed to behave because Santa was watching. My little man stood firmly in the middle of the dining room, looked up at the ceiling and yelled "Santa, quit watching me!!!."

In Case You Were Wondering..

I have decided to quit the blog business.

Terrible Two's

So Canaan is a champion tantrum thrower. Being a 2 year old with limited language abilities, we have come to expect his morning outbursts if he doesn't get breakfast fast enough, or it isn't what he wants, or whatever. Usually we remove him from whatever the situation is for him to calm down. Anyway, so I was just cleaning the bathroom while the boys were watching Sesame Street, and Canaan comes in making his "I want something" noise. I ask him to show me and he leads me into the living room saying "Elmo." There was a song about family on the show at the time, and I told him he had to wait because we can't make Elmo come on. Canaan proceeds to have a FIT. And then Elmo's World came on. So much for showing him that throwing tantrums isn't a way to get what you want. Thanks, Elmo.

When I Grow Up...

Judging by these pictures, Canaan will grow up to be a mall walker. And Solace will be a street walker.

Popcorn's Visit

Long overdue- pictures from Grandpa Cornell/Popcorn's visit at the beginning of September.

Canaan's Photo Shoot

It's a well known fact that Canaan does NOT like to smile for the camera...until he was BAPTIZED, that is!! For some reason on the day of his baptism he decided to respond to "Cheese!"... although I think he thought I was saying "Cheek!" because he kept touching his cheek. No matter, I'll take what I can get.

I know, I know- I'm totally biased. I don't care! :)
