Lost and Found

Please excuse my lack of posting!
I "lost" my camera for a few weeks only to discover that it was buried deep in the diaper bag. I was disappointed that I couldn't capture any Thanksgiving images, but I'll try to make up for it with lots of Christmas pictures this coming weekend!

Here are some photos of Brixton hanging out with his buddy Andrew in the beginning of November.

And Brixton's fascination with hair continues...

Fast forward to December...
I don't know who this kid is, but he's definitely not my little baby boy!
He grew up overnight!

Lucy had a wonderful baptism with her other cousin, Kainalu. Here's a shot of her with her Godparents, Kristin & Rudy.

Isn't she beautiful in her white dress?

Brixton had a doppelganger at the baptism - he showed up and Lucy's cousin Mateo was already wearing his outfit!!!
Our worst fear - and it even happens to toddlers!

Here he is having fun with Kristin.

After the baptism, we went home to decorate our Christmas tree.
We were a bit apprehensive about trimming the tree with a one and a half year old, but Brixton turned out to be quite the helper!

Here he is taking a break; I guess he got tired after stringing all the garlands!

Brixton had his own section of ornaments. None of them are hooked to the tree, he just laid them nicely on the branches.

Can you tell he's proud of his work?

Just hanging out...a typical Saturday morning!

Delia had her open bar holiday party, so we were lucky enough to have a slumber party with Lucy!
The kids had a great night, but woke us up rather early...we're just a bit bleary eyed!

Aren't you glad this photo isn't in 3D???

Lucy Turns Three!

Image
We went to a baby shower and they had a bouncy house for all the kids. There weren't that many kids using it though, so Lily was nice enough to take Brixton in there for his first time. He LOVED it! I know, I know...Brixton isn't wearing any pants. It was SUPER hot and he was wearing jeans so I just decided to take them off. A bit trashy, but we were around family ;) The next day, we had Lucy's birthday party at Hacienda Hughes. It was a pirate theme, and true to form, Dad had to create something EXTRAVAGANT for the kids to enjoy. So he drew a giant cardboard cutout of a pirate...complete with a 3D bird and doubloons! Kaiya and Delia A very fun potato sack race! Pinata time! Here's Lucy enjoying her loot while she waits patiently to open her presents...I think Brixton is wondering where his candy is! Look at the plane! Brixton was very happy to sneak some of Fisher's blueberries! A potato sack race just for Lucy and Brixton! Delia is attempting to make a &quo

Saturday Morning Sweetness

Image
On Saturday morning, Tzaddi went to play disc golf for the first time in 3 months and Brixton and I stayed home. Brixton was in such a good mood and he was so chatty! Of course, this is his usual expression...I think he frowns on purpose so that I'll smile at him and then he can smile back! Pixel has become increasingly interested in Brixton. She likes to see just how close she can get before we yell at her. She also really likes trying to lick his face without us knowing. Luckily, I caught it on camera! Although Brixton doesn't look too upset, does he? Now, this is a rather lengthy video and you have to listen to my horrible singing but I promise you it's worth it! We were listening to B is for Bob and Brixton enjoyed the impromptu live concert.

It's Been Three Years

Image
It's been exactly three years since Rowan passed away. It feels like yesterday. In just a bit over a month from now, Rowan will have been gone longer than he was here. We still miss him more than words can say. He taught us so much: How to love How to be loved Compassion Empathy Hope Gratitude Rowan will always be our first child. Rowan will always be Brixton's big brother. I can tell you exactly how we spent every hour on this same day three years ago. I can tell you how the final roller coaster started four days ago...three years ago. I remember making the call to my family; telling them to come right away. I remember listening to Tzaddi as he told his family to get on the next plane. Here's a glimpse into our lives three years ago...and perhaps a glimpse into yours. Nikki (Rowan's daily nurse) Kate (Rowan's therapist) Cousin Quinn Aunt Carleen Auntie Delia (with Lucy in tummy) Nana Noni Jill Kristy Uncle Nate Poppy Tops Auntie Delia & Uncle Nick The Fat Nana
