Having Fun

Playing my new drum! I got this people! No problem :)

Holy cow, look at my new drum!

Ah, this guitar strap is way too big for me peeps!

Cool sweatshirt dad, but it's a tad too big still!

Christmas Part 2

New University of Washington sweatshirt from Aunt Audrey.

"Right Audrey, you want me to sit still for you?"

Annual Christmas gathering of Northfield girls, plus a baby shower for Britta and little Asher.

Playing peek-a-boo with Kelly, his favorite game!

Being cool with Uncle Josh.

G.A.S. chasing Brody around in circles.

Later in the day, Brody tipped the kitchen over (shockingly).

"Hey Andy, want to play?"

Opening a gift Christmas morning. "Thanks Uncle Zach and Aunt Aimee, I love it!"

Papa & Brody trying to escape, again.

Right, what crazy people try getting a "good" photo of these 3 movers?

Awww, great smiles by Brody & Aunt Whitney.

"Hey, you look hungry, want a cracker? Let me feed it to you."

"Table, floor, doesn't matter, I'll eat anywhere."

Christmas art project for Uncle Eric, Uncle Zach & Aunt Aimee. I think the penguin turned out pretty good considering the wiggle worm we had to work with.

Merry Christmas

SANTA, I KNOW HIM! (Elf quote)

"Oh wait, no I don't, this guy is freaking me out, get me out of here!"

Snow & Calves

We had a bit of a blizzard on Saturday. Sunday Barry shoveled us out so we could go to the farm. Brody did a bit of sledding and met a baby calf that he wasn't too thrilled about.

More Steps

And yes, Audrey, my son is wearing suspenders! They have airplanes on them and they rock!

First Steps December 7, 2010

You were two days off Papa Jeff! It's only a few steps at any given time, but it's a start and I'm sure he'll improve all too quickly!

Little Christmas

This weekend we got together with the Docken clan; Papa, Omi, Uncle Sean, Auntie Heather, Uncle Josh, Auntie Whitney, Cousin Claire, and Cousin Max. Growing up we always put a shoe out the night before December 6, St. Nicholas Day and we'd get a present for Little Christmas. We celebrated a day early over supper as a big extended family.

Barry said he felt like Santa with Brody and Claire sitting on his lap, quite funny!
