Christmas and Isaiah's First Birthday Photos!

Below are pictures from Isaiah's first birthday at mom and dad's on Christmas evening and then pictures from the four get togethers we had! It was busy, but we had a good time!

Talking!

Hallie has been doing lots of talking lately! The first video is from today; the second was over Thanksgiving!

She also is sitting up well! We put her in the Bumbo this week! She seems to have a really people person personality! She smiles a lot still and we're enjoying starting to read to her. She likes when I sing to her too!

Santa Baby!

Linda wanted some pictures done at Sears, so below are a few from that. We had a mad Santa Baby for one of them! I've showed alot of people this picture and they all LOVE it!

Hallie with her cousins, Aida and Athrun. It looks like she's hanging onto dear life!

Here's us with our tree!

Thanksgiving and visit to the Cook Farm!

I just realized these pictures are a bit out of order from date, but below are some pictures from November 27th when we visited Larry and Marie's farm up in Meat Camp to get our Christmas tree and socialize!

Below is Caroline (their granddaughter) who loved Hallie! She has a 2 year old sister and another sibling on the way! She had great big sister skills!

We got to meet Arlo!

Hallie took a good nap on Allyson's lap!

Socializing!

Hallie has been very expressive! She moves her eyebrows up when you talk to her alot and is cooing a bit more. She also is moving her tougue more!

Jason plays with her after he picks her up from daycare! He got to have her all day on Thursday because he was off for Veteran's Day! He went to Statesville to have breakfast with Grandma, Grandpa, and Lee, then we had lunch with my parents at Bo Peeps. She was tired there! Later, he stopped by CFA so my co workers could see her! She smiled a lot there!

We've had three walks at the Greenway. This picture was from the first one; then we took the dogs on the second one and she slept the whole time. Yesterday, we just took her again!

This past Wednesday, our bosses took the Customer Relations Agents (customer service) out for the day because we're always stuck in the office. We didn't know where we were going, except we figured out we were going up to the mountains. We stopped at Shoppes on the Parkway and they gave us money to shop!!!! It was a great surprise!

We ate at the Canyons Resturant and took this picture here! It was a gorgeous day! We walked around downtown for awhile after this!

Last Friday, we saw Billy, Joyce, Rachel, Matthew, Adam, and Dani along with Linda and Lee. Linda gave Hallie to Adam unexpectantly! She liked him, and he did smile in the pictures!
