More Pictures of Megan

It is hard to believe that Megan is already almost two weeks old. She is doing great and is a really good baby. She is still spending most of her time sleeping but I have managed to capture a few pictures of her awake that I wanted to post.

Who are these guys?

Megan Kathleen White

Megan Kathleen White was born Friday afternoon, January 22,2010 at 1:53. She weighed 7 pounds 1 ounce and was 19 inches long. She is doing great. Her big brothers really adore her and we are so excited and blessed to have her in our family. Welcome to the world, Megan. We love you.

Christmas

We had a great Christmas. We celebrated the Sunday before Christmas at May-May and Paw-Paw's house with Joe and Amy and their families. We spent Christmas eve with Grandma and Pop and all of John's family and enjoyed a nice day at home on Christmas day. The boys were excited about all of their presents. Wii games, sea creatures, and Mickey Mouse were the main hits, no two-headed snake or lemon shark, but I think Jake was still pleased with what Santa brought. Below is a slide show that captures the highlights.

Jake's Christmas List

Jake sat down this morning and decided he wanted to make out his Christmas list. It is very unique. He said he wanted to take it to show Santa Claus. I bet Santa has never seen a list like this before and may have a hard time finding these items. I hope Jake is not too disappointed. In case you can't read it, he wants a lemon shark, a western blind snake, a spectacled cobra, a two-headed snake, a puffer fish, and a corn snake. He has also wants sea creatures which are easy to find so Santa should be able to substitute some of the items on his list and he'll still hopefully be happy.

Luke's Christmas List

Jake Loses His First Tooth

Jake lost his first tooth last night. It had been loose for a while. He was upstairs and he just came down and said that his tooth was wiggly, and it was. John was able to pull it out very easily. He was excited for the tooth fairy to come and see him and was pleased when he found five dollars under his pillow this morning. However, the tooth fairy will not be quite as generous with the next tooth.

Luke had to have his picture taken too

Halloween

Here are some pictures of the boys on Halloween. It was a rainy day but we managed to get in trick or treating. The boys had fun. Tyler and Jake were both football players. Jake was going to be Spider-Man but decided at the last minute that he didn't like his costume and that it looked funny, so he was a football player like Tyler. Luke was Thomas the Train.

Zoo/ Pumpkin Patch Weekend

We had a busy weekend. Saturday we were invited to go to the Atlanta Zoo with some friends of ours. They had some free passes and they were having Boo at the Zoo where the kids got to trick or treat at the zoo. The boys had a lot of fun. It was their first trip to the Atlanta Zoo and John's first trip to the zoo ever. Sunday afternoon we went to Jellystone Park. We had never been there before but the boys brought a flyer home from school about it and it looked like fun. However it was not what we expected. I have to say we were disappointed. The "pumpkin patch" was just a few pumpkins thrown in the grass and it was very crowded and disorganized. We went with Avery and his family, so the kids had fun playing anyway. They did get to fish for some toy fish that were in a pool which seemed to be the highlight of the trip. Oh well, live and learn. Next year we will have to go to a real pumpkin patch.
