Almost Christmas!


The boys in front of the tree


Brent and I at the Coffman Christmas Party


"All I want for Christmas is my Auntie!"

We just got back from a really fun weekend at Alyeska Resort for Brent's work Christmas party. Debbie (Brent's mom) came with us to watch the kiddos. It gave me such peace of mind to know that boys were well cared for and only a few floors up from where I was. I would be fine leaving Ben overnight but Noah is still nursing and wakes up quite a bit at night. Plus he is getting used to sleeping next to his momma which is a habit I didn't want to start but am too tired at night to fight. Anyways, we took Ben swimming which he loved. I brought a new toy and some videos for him to watch in the hotel room because I was worried he would be bored...well I should have known better because he loved running back and forth through our connected rooms and checking out all the hiding spots! In the morning we all had breakfast at the cafe and Ben had 3 pieces of frech toast and fruit...love my good little eater!
My parents arrive a week from tomorrow and then my sister arrives the day after. I am so excited to see them and spend Christmas together. It's been too long since we've spent the holidays together. My dad has never meet or Noah or seen our house completed either! Now I just have to find time between all the normal day to day things to get ready for them! :)

The last week...


All wrapped up after tub time


Ben loves bubble baths!


Going for a horsey ride on Papa :)


Posing with our tree


Waving "hi" to everyone!

So I have quite a few pictures that I would be putting on the blog but I'm holding back...my mom wanted a photo book for Christmas and wanted there to be a few pictures in there that she hasn't seen! So I guess I'll be posting them after Christmas!

Happy Thanksgiving!


The Fam

We will fool ourselves into believing that Ben was smiling for this picture and not whining to get away... he's not much for photo taking lately!
Our Thanksgiving was really great. Brent was home the entire week and we all had a wonderful time together! Ben especially liked having his Papa around more than usual :) Friday was my birthday and we went to some friends houde to watch the CSU v Wyoming game. Saturday we had our Thanksgiving at Brent's parents' house and Sunday my friend, Cassandra, and I went to lunch and the Nutcracker! It was really great to get away and have some girl time.
