Today we took Adam to the squadron Christmas Party. We were also able to get his picture taken with Santa.

Yep that's Uncle Tyler, Santa's Helper

My two handsome men!

Trip to the Park

2008-12-07T15:19:00.002+01:00

We took Adam to the park across the street from our house today. I think we might have a future Astronaut on our hands :)

He really seem to like the swing.

He was ready to EAT!

He wanted the turkey!

Time for some sweet potatoes

Thanksgiving

2008-11-24T15:31:00.003+01:00

With Thanksgiving just a few days away, I started thinking what will I teach Adam about Thanksgiving. So I started to really look into the true meaning of Thanksgiving.

I found that in ancient times, people of many cultures (including the ancient Greeks, Romans, Hebrews, Egyptians and Chinese) gave thanks to their god or gods for a successful harvest, and some of the traditions associated with modern Thanksgiving celebrations have their roots in these ancient festivals.

One aspect of Thanksgiving involves gratitude for having enough food to eat. I hope that as he gets older, we will be able to involve him in the shopping and donating of groceries to a local food bank. I also hope that we can teach him that this is something that we all should be doing all year long.

So I pose this question to you. What does Thanksgiving mean to your family? What do you hope your children learn about this holiday?

Adam's First Veggie

2008-11-16T17:39:00.003+01:00

We started Adam with green beans today. I have choosen to make our own baby food. Not too sure what he thinks. :)

2008-11-12T20:25:00.002+01:00

This is what happens when friends move. You get a big box of stuff that they are unable to have shipped with their household goods. I am definetly set as far as spices go for awhile. We also recieved a large amount of cleaning supplies, which are always welcome! Thanks to the Rinaldi family. We will miss you greatly.

Halloween

2008-10-31T20:25:00.004+01:00

Adam experienced his first Halloween today. Todd really liked the clown fish costume. So we ordered it when Adam was about a month old. We finally got to get him dressed up!!

His first Halloween was soooo exausting!!!

He is so funny!

2008-10-29T20:59:00.002+01:00

Adam is the greatest entertainment in the world!

Home from Egypt!!!

2008-10-11T18:34:00.003+02:00

Todd just returned from his trip to Cairo. During is "work" trip he was able to enjoy some site. The famous Pyramids!

I don't know what the big deal is. They arent that big!

Quite an experience being on a camel. Better have good balance.

The famous Sphinx!!

Definetly a must see in ones liftime. Todd was able to bring back a cute little teddy bear from the Hard Rock Cafe Cairo for Adam. He also brought a Kartush (necklace) for Carrie, that has Adam's name in hieroglyphics. It is beautiful.

So he really enjoyed his trip. Hopefully we will be able to take a trip there as a family one day. :)

Egypt

2008-10-04T17:28:00.003+02:00

Todd left for Egypt today. He will be back on Thursday. I have to say I am a little jealous. That is one place that I have always wanted to go. So when he returns I will post some of his pictures for everyone to enjoy!!

BBQ!

2008-09-22T14:48:00.006+02:00

We had a bbq at the house yesterday. We had lots of friends over, and had enough food to feed an army, ( well Airmen!). Poor little Adam got passed around a cooed at and snuggled by everyone there. By the end of the day he just passed out cold in daddys arms.

First Shots

2008-09-15T20:58:00.003+02:00

So Todd and I had to take Adam to the clinic today to get his first set of shots. (SAD) I am a big baby. I made Todd take him in, while I sat out in the waiting room. I heard him start to cry and I started to cry. All of the emotions of being a mom can be a little overwhealming. I guess I just didn't excpect that. LOL. So out little man is well on his way to being vaccinated against all of those nasty viruses, bacteria, and bugs that the doctors have worked so hard at getting rid of. Thank goodness for vaccines.

Growing Boy

2008-09-09T13:21:00.002+02:00

So Adam reached nine weeks this weekend. He is growing so fast. Our little guy is developing his own personality. He is such a happy little boy. He has begun to get excited when he sees daddy after work. He gets such a big grin when he sees him. I really wish that I would have believed people when they told me that they grow really fast. It seems like we just brought him home. We definetly cherish every day with him.

New to the world of Blogging!

2008-09-03T08:39:00.000+02:00

So we have decided to enter the world of blogging. We thought it would be a great way to update all of the extended family on the happenings here in Spain with our family, and the growth of our little one.
