The Mother Load Post

It has been way too long since I've posted anything. The following pictures should bring you up to speed on our happenings!!


Miss Sadie just being adorable
We inherited this toy for Sadie, and Max wants to play in it all the time.
This is usually how I find him after playing in his room for awhile.
This little boy plays hard and then crashes.
Sadie sleeping peacefully in the middle of all the chaos below.
17 kids receiving Christmas presents....craziness.
All the boys love to wrestle with Aaron.
Max, Sam and Chad wrestling.
Marley could not get enough of Sadie. She loves to kiss her.
This girls are so cute together.
Looking good in brown.
Aaron and Max got matching flannels for Christmas.
Two of a kind.
Max loved the animals Santa brought him.
He also loves the pony Grandma and Grandpa McLelland gave him.
Not quite sure why we slept in Uncle Tyler and McKay's room, why we are up so early, and why there are all these toys.
Christmas morning
Sadie once again sleeping in the middle of presents being opened.
The weekend before Christmas we hung out with the Keough side in San Francisco. It was SOOOO much fun!!! Here Max is with Grandma Keough.
The kids with Aunt Emma.
Max loved riding on Grandma's suitcase.
We went to the Jelly Belly factory and Sadie opted not to go on the tour but to take a nap with Grandpa instead.
Max sure enjoyed the Jelly Bellies...no surprise there.
Dad and Max wearing the requires hats.
Max wearing more hats at the hat shop on Pier 39.
Luckily Max is a good sport about trying on hats because we love to put them on him.
We were surprised that Max LOVED the carousel!
Mom and Sadie.
Dad and Max.
The Fam.
Sadie once again looking adorable.
Max and Emma spent many a car ride in the back seat together.
One day when Samuel was at our house he put this little number together.
This is how I found them another afternoon when Samuel was over and they had been playing in the room.
Yes...my nightmare has come true!! Max learned to climb out of the crib. After fighting it for a few days, we gave in and made his crib into a toddler bed. Since then he has been staying in bed pretty well which has totally surprised me.
Sadie went in for a checkup today and is getting started on solid foods now. Here is her first feeding, with Max assisting. He likes to wipe her mouth. Apparently I wipe things up and clean a lot because Max likes to have a rag or wipe and clean everything. :)
She did really good with her rice cereal the first time. Most of it stayed in, and she really liked it. Oh, she weighs 16lbs now...and is going to physical therapy Monday to help her neck...it always leans to one side.
Dressed for the cold.

Too many pics to comment on them individually, but they are all cute. And you are joking about the physical therapy ... right?
