Justin got his Christmas gift (portable DVD player) from Papa & Gramma Metzler when we were in Vegas. LIFESAVER in the car!!!!! He watched movies or slept the whole way to and from Michigan!!!! Thanks so much for the awesome gift :) Thanks to Katie too for burning Justin every kids movie from the last few years!!! He loved them!
Finding Nemo and a hamburger - what else could a kid want??? :)
Good influence Uncle Ryan :)
Uncle Ryan and Aunt Manda came over on Friday night to see us! We knew Amanda was coming, but Ryan surprised us! It was so good to see you guys!!!!
Aunt Manda's idea of babysitting :) J/K!
We were trying to get Justin to say "Aunt Amanda", but Aunt Manda is easier!
Practicing his quarter bounce - with such concentration!!!
Ashley and Uncle Kurt

On Saturday we went to Christmas at Great Grandpa Ronald & Shirley's house. It was with Kent's extended family. We had fun - it was just hard keeping the tornado (aka Justin) contained in a non child proof house!
Justin likes unwrapping presents! He likes it more though when he knows he's not supposed to - like all of them under the tree when nobody is watching!
Four generations - but getting all of them to smile at the camera was impossible!
The Brooks Brother with Ronald & Shirley
Uncle Kurt wanted footie pajamas for Christmas - and he got them! Sue found them online somewhere for giants!
The Brooks Family - I like how it looks like Kent is wearing the antlers :)
Sunday morning Aunt Buzz and Uncle Jeff came over for brunch before we got on the road - it was good to see them! I am bummed that we missed Jen and Dave by a week - they are still at school...
Justin got a ride on truck that scoops up legos or blocks as you drive on them. He loves the noisey steering wheel!
Mom - it's way cooler if you stand on it.
Fine - I'll sit down but I won't smile for any more pictures!

How fun! My husband got footie jammies for our party, red plaid with a drop butt, I was amazed at the amount of jammies on-line for adults, he really wanted the yellow fleece ones with fire trucks, but I said they weren't Christmas enough!
Nice group picture. Also love the picture of Justin eating a hamburger and watching a movie. He looks like such a big boy. I still cut up all my girls' food. I am a paranoid mother...lol
aw! the pics are sooo cute! Hope to see you guys soon!!!
Love,

Looks like it was a ton of fun! I love Christmas and I'm so excited that the kids are old enough to start enjoying and remembering it.
My nieces and nephews all call me Aunt Manda too. Actually, it starts out more like Aunt Mana:)
Hi Melissa. I haven't checked your blog in awhile. Justin is SO BIG OH MY GOSH!!!! And adorable. The footy PJ photo made me laugh, as did the hamburger one. Carter loves his portable DVD, and he's almost old enough to hold it by himself. *almost*
