McKinley's First Snow!

In some areas, the snow got really deep!

Here is Rick clearing the walkway.

All bundled up checking out the snow for the first time.

He opened his mouth to catch the snow flakes!

Coming down fast!!!

Sunday in December

A Sunday in December. We visited Grandma and Pop the Sunday before we left for New Jersey, December 13th. We had a lot of fun playing on the table, ripping apart the magazines!

Oh Christmas Tree!

Oh Christmas Tree! Oh Christmas Tree!

North Myrtle Beach

Such a happy guy, in a new fleece outfit, perfect for the winter! Joy Boy! :)

I can blow out of my mouth! What a concept it is for me, I do it all the time now! Only 4 more months until the Birthday candle, you know!

Look at my new smile face! Always changing and growing!

The weekend after Thanksgiving, we took a trip to North Myrtle Beach for some relaxing and fun! We were right on the ocean and it was so nice to look out and see the beach!

Mommy and Daddy got to sleep in while the Grandparents watched McKinley... always nice! We also went to the outlets and got some Christmas shopping done! It was a really nice trip, we all enjoyed ourselves!

Bailey

Here is a really cute picture of McKinley and Bailey. He is such the animal lover! He has a book named "Pat Them Gently" that teaches him how to treat animals, I read it to him all the time. He loves it, I think its all the puppy and kitty pictures!

Thanksgiving Time 2009!

McKinley, Great-Grandma Mama Bebon, Grandma Kathy, and Daddy!

We had a great Thanksgiving this year in Chapel Hill. We got to sleep in, watch the parade, and eat lots of delicious food! It was the perfect time to give Thanks for all the joyous events in 2009 - which were plentiful. Happy Thanksgiving Everyone!

At Such Great Heights...

...Everything looks perfect.

Grandma Maddie came for a short weekend visit in November and of course we had tons of fun!

More beach pictures.... I can't help but think they are the most beautiful.

I know, I'm biased. :)

Halloween 2009

McKinley's First Halloween!

For Halloween we went to Jody and Sarah's house in Durham. They always go all out with amazing decorations every Halloween... Their whole front yard is transformed into a spooky scene. Their neighborhood also attracts tons of kids! It is so much fun to see them all and hand out candy! McKinley went dressed as a Green Dinosaur and he carried a little teddy dino buddy. It was too cute! He really enjoyed watching all the kids. But, no candy this year!
