Finally after along awaited time we are back to blog land. Where have we been, like everyone else we have been very busy.... Most importantly santa brought Evan and I a new apple computer that I was not smart enough to figure out how to retrieve pics for the blog.. I could have blogged numerous times but with out pics can get kind of tedious to read. We were fortunate to stay home for all holidays this year and Chateau Morris has not had many vacancies. Within the span of a month and a half Langdon and Teagan were able to see all their grandparents except Harry who we will see in a month. Evans dad and Madeline came just before Thanksgiving, my parents were here for christmas and Arlene came for new years. It was awesome having everyone here to see the new house and spend time with us. Christmas was great, Langdon really had a blast this year and santa loaded him up with lots of superheros and handy manny stuff. Teags was also very spirited and wanted to play with everything right then and there. He received lots of toys that play music and car stuff. Enjoy the pics it will be a random collection of all the holidays as I try to get back on track and keep up.

This past weekend we went with the Nowlin family to the Pumpkin Patch and had such a great time. Langdon really enjoyed himself and got to do all kinds of fun stuff. I think his favorite was Pumpkin ball, as you can see he was really into it. He loved climbing in the hay and was a big fan of the corn maze.. Who knew you could have so much fun on a chilly sunday afternoon. Teags of course was a quiet observer but will probally really enjoy it next year.

Brotherly Love and the keys to the candy store

Teagan is really coming into his own and is enjoying spending time with Langdon. They are finally starting to play very well together and enjoy each others company, I guess the fights are next. One day while Langdon was still napping Teags was already awake so he wandered to the coffee table only to find Langdons black bag of nascars. Now you guys know Langdon is obsessed with nascar and nobody touches the cars but him, he won't even share with his parents. This was like the title says "giving Teags the keys to the candy store." He knew he had forbidden fruit when he found those cars and the pics tell the story. That kid was so excited with the most devious smile on his face and had the best time playing with those cars. It of course ended abruptly when Langdon woke up and saw what was going on. For 20 short minutes Teags was in heaven and I loved watching it all go down.

Head Bangers and Haircuts

This is what happens when you are standing and learning to walk. Unfortunately Teags was trying to stand up on the patio and slipped "Ouch" after a thump and lots of crying this is what we have as a memory. God Bless Him you hate to see a child hurt like that. He did recover well but has hit his head several times since on a much smaller scale. Now just where did I put Langdons spider man helmet???As for Langdon after numerous discussions with Evan we decided to officially end the reign of the bowl cut. Initially I said I would let it go when Langdon turned 4 but after a number of bad haircuts we decided it was time. Thanks to a great friend we have found a new place for haircuts. Apparently barbers are the way to go, they just are much better accustomed to cutting boys hair. So these are pics of Langdons new do and I really like it and it is growing on Evan. Langdon is unbiased and I am proud of myself for letting go without much struggle. I like to call it turning a chapter in his young life onto boyhood.
