January

Brooks reading with Grandma J on New Year's Day as we stopped to pick up our pets (thanks mom and dad for taking care of them!) in West Des Moines on our way back home.

Danny with his stocking.

We couldn't get Brooks to sit still long enough to get a good picture of him with his stocking. He was ready to open those presents!

We gave Brooks a vacuum cleaner for Christmas and he loved it so much, he had to sleep with it in his crib the first night.

The boys in their brand new matching Cars jammies that they got for Christmas.

A couple of cute brothers.

Brooks and I vacuuming the rug after putting away the Christmas tree.

We had to go out and get Brooks his own shovel, because he always wants to do what his big brother is doing.

Nate and Brooks scooping the driveway.

All of the boys with their shovels out in the snow.

Fun with the diaper boxes...sitting inside.

Walking around with them on their heads.

Laying in them.

Goofing around with them.

Racing cars on the couch after flipping up all of the cushions.

Now that Brooks is getting a little older, the boys are able to play with each other more and more these days.
