3 Months

3 Months...really?!?  

Here is a pic of our happy and growing 3 month old little man.

Hang'n with his silly brother and sister.

McB "reading" to his siblings.

A cold but fun trip to the zoo.  Mommy's 1st major outing with 3...met up with some friends at the zoo that helped make it possible;)

Remember the sisters' prego pic back on the "Moss Summer" post?  Well, IP was the 1st of 3 new cousin's to arrive.  #2 and #3 should be here in the next month or maybe 2's post.

Cousin time after the baby shower:))

We are getting better with our sleeping/schedule skills, but this is IP refusing to wake up for his last feeding of the day a few nights ago.

Merry Christmas!

We spent the month of December preparing our hearts for Christmas with Advent.  Here are a few shots from our Christmas lights adventure in a nearby town.  It was fun watching the kids run and play together as they explored with excitement.  IP even enjoyed looking at the lights.

Daddy, SLiM and McB looking up into the  trees filled with lights that look like leaves, some of them were made to appear to be falling like rain drops through the trees.

We spent a fun filled 4 day weekend, including Christmas Eve and Christmas Day at 

Granny and PawPaw's house.

Family photo on Christmas Eve

 The local volunteer fire department made a special trip down Granny and PawPaw's long driveway to surprise a few grandkids.  One of the perks of living in a very small town:)  McB was just a bit excited about the truck...can you find him in the pic with santa?  He didn't even panic when the siren went off.

We watched cousin E and C perform in their Christmas Eve program at their church.

Blowing out the candles was the highlight of our Advent devotionals throughout the entire month.

Making a birthday cake for Jesus

Riding horses

These two, cousin C(blue tractor) and McB(red tractor), had a blast together.  They both have crazy imaginations.

4 wheelin fun

Feeding Trout a plastic piece of cheese from the play kitchen

Chopping the garden.
Texas Weather;) 70's for most of the weekend and then REALLY cold  Christmas night.

We celebrated Christmas at home a day late.

IP's 1st Christmas train ornament

Our crazy kids having a hard time slowing down to pose for a pic

Christmas presents from Momma and Daddy

Sweet Boy

The best part of the Christmas presents from Momma and Daddy was the boxes that they came in.  They have been used to build forts, tents, and houses.  The bean bags have been dubbed "food bags" by McB when he didn't quite remember the name of them.

Moss Family Thanksgiving

The Moss cousins

Campfire and smores at KK & LL's house

These two were just a bit excited about going to cousin KK's house to have a camp-out in the living room under a sheet tent with Daddy and Uncle Jer.  This is McB's "hurry up and take the pic" pose.  You probably noticed in the "Moss cousins" pic above that he and SLiM were not exactly in a picture taking mood that weekend.

We had lots of fun decorating our home for Christmas.  It was done in stages this yr b/c of a little chaos around our house and a busy schedule this yr.  Our ornaments are not organized quite as well as they usually are b/c of two kiddos that had a great time deciding where they should hang them with a 2 month old supervising from his bouncer.

Here is a pic of a "tent" Mom made for the kids in the living room. McB corrected Mom and informed her that it was a "brown race car" and not a tent.

Here is a shot of McB and SLiM driving the brown race car.

IP's 1st Photo shoot

Posing with Big Bro and Sis

He loves kisses.

Meeting Aunt MB, Uncle Layne,  Aunt Lisa and cousins E & C.

               Fun at the pumpkin patch with Granny and the cousins.

County fair with Daddy.  You may not be able to tell from the pic but Mom and Daddy let McB and SLiM ride a big kid ride.  The looks on their faces were shear terror and SLiM kept her "protective arm" across McB for the entire ride.  Neither cried but both were full of smiles when it ended safely.

                                  Serious talk with Daddy and Big Bro.

                                      Cuddling in the cozy bed.
