Christmas Eve With Our Little German Boy

Little Wesley loves Gram's Christmas Tree!!  He especially likes to take the icicles and snowflakes off the tree!  Gram bought lederhosen for him when she came to Germany when he was born!!  

Cousin Izzy is just the cutest little girl ever!  She had so much fun opening gifts--what a true girl!  She even tried taking some of Wes' toys, but he was NOT having it!
The little kid table!  What a big boy!!  Brett (5), MeMe (5), Liam (3) and Wes (1.5)!

Shopping!!


We spent the day at a real mall!!  I was in heaven, but was on my best behavior!  Mike and Lori let me pick out some early Christmas gifts, so we headed right to MiMi Maternity!!  Wes had fun sitting on Santa's lap and riding the escalator with Grandpa!  He had even more fun playing in the kid's area, a great addition that every mall should offer!

Bathtime at Gammi and Grandpa's!! uh-oh!!!

Wes had lots of fun taking a bath in the big tub at Gammi and Grandpa's!  He totally lost track of what he was doing and where...


Just kidding!  It is just a log from his new animal set!!  This one is for you, Daddy!

The Blarney Castle and Stone

It was a really cold morning when we reached the Blarney Castle, and we could barely see it from the path.  Luckily, it turned out to be a nice day.  We were so fortunate that we didn't have to deal with crowds and we even parked right next to the entrance!

Kissing the Blarney Stone...Didn't realize what a hike it would be up the castle staircases!  I cramped for days afterward.  My doctor has said no more castles...and send him a post card!!  I'm confused!!  Since we now have the "gift of gab" from kissing the stone, I think maybe we'll have a little chatty baby girl!!!  Who knows!!!
