Holden is 17 months!!!

Happy 17 months Holden Noah! Our little man is turning out to be such a fun kid. He loves exploring around the house and he is always into something. Mom and dad spend most of the day chasing him around the house. He is running all over the place. He has been taking a 2 1/2 to 3 hour nap a day and going to bed between 6:30 and 7 and waking up around 9. It has been so nice. Holden is really into Yo Gabba Gabba right now. He loves to dance to all the music, he has some great dance moves.

Maddie is 5 months old!!

Miss Madeline Christine is 5 months old!!! Our little princess is getting bigger by the day. She is grabbing everything in sight and drooling through multiple bibs a day. She is becoming so alert and wants to see everything that is going on around her. She is still a super good sleeper. We love Maddie girl more and more every day, we are so blessed to have her in out lives.

Maddie's Baptism

On November 14 we had little Maddie baptized. We had a small get together at my parent's house before hand. We could not have asked for better weather and the day turned out great. There were about 8 other babies getting baptized, a bit bigger then we expected but Maddie and Holden were the best behaved kids in the whole church!

Disneyland

On November 11 my mom, Ryan and I took Holden and Maddie on their first trip to Disneyland. We started off the day by going to breakfast with the characters. My friend Tyler, who plays Winnie the Pooh was able to get all his character friends together and give Holden and Maddie some extra attention. We were not sure how Holden would react. As you can see by these pictures he LOVED it!!!!! Our little man was not scared of anything he wanted to touch Pooh's nose and eyes
he was so excited he could not keep his mouth closed

"can I give you a kiss Pooh"

Pooh is Holden's favorite. He sleeps with his stuffed Pooh every night

Maddie loved looking at all the characters as well

He had a big crush on Minnie Mouse

Captain Hook did not even scare them

The first ride we went on was the story book boat ride. Holden was very impressed
