Joy to the world!

Mom got a new camera for Christmas so if there weren't enough pictures of Harrison floating in the world before, there will be now! We had a wonderful Christmas with both sides of our family. Everyone was home safe and healthy! Harrison was very excited for Santa to come!Harrison finally got to meet Uncle Matt, Callie, and Noland! They all became fast friends.I think Harrison is happy that I will never put him in that Santa outfit again.Harrison liked to help Grandma Ann open the presents...well, he actually liked trying to stuff all the tissue paper in his mouth.Watch out ladies...Dad and H got matching sweaters! Harrison had a good time watching his cousin Noland...he is excited that next year he'll be able to walk and keep up with him.


We all had a great Christmas but after 2 days of festivities...we needed a rest!

Preparing for the artic and H-A-R-R-I-S-O-N

The weather has turned cold in Minnesota so this is how we have to dress babies in the mornings before we leave the house...



On another note...My good friend Tracie decided she needed a hobby (apparently she thinks she has freetime despite having an 18 month old and working fulltime). When I mentioned I wanted to get some letters for Harrison's wall (since he is 4 months old and has nothing on them), she decided painting the letters would be the perfect hobby! She used the pattern from a quilt we had and they turned out perfect! Who says finance majors can't have a creative side! Thanks again Tracie!

First Feast!

Since it was Thanksgiving last week, we thought it was be an appropriate time to start Harrison on solid food. (Also given he is now four and a half months.) He did not feast on turkey, mash potatoes, stuffing and pumpkin pie. Instead, he enjoyed a delicious combination of rice cereal and milk. Yummy!

After dinner, Harrison participated in a traditional post-feast activity with his dad.
