Merry Christmas

I can't believe Christmas is over. We celebrated many times and got to see lots of friends and family. It was Alex's first Christmas - and Hannah's first Christmas actually knowing who Santa was...and that he brings "presents". I anticipate that next year - she will totally get it - and have a very long list for Santa. Here are some pics from the Holiday celebrations. We hope that you all had a very Merry Christmas. 

Part #1 at Joe's Aunt Teresa's house.

The girls loved having their Uncles swing them outside of Larry & Teresa's house.

Next generation of Stags. Anita's little girl Elliotte is in the middle, Lisa's little boy Brady is in the blue shirt,  and Jenny's little boy Fisher is in the black shirt. 

Cousins all cuddled up watching Monsters Inc.

The Storey family!

Yep...he's starting to make some cute faces.

Resting up again for Santa.

Toasting David and Marie on their engagement. Congrats!

Cute pics...

Sorry for the delay in posting...been a bit busy getting to know our new baby boy. Thought I'd post a few pics of the little man taken over the last 3 weeks. He's growing soooo fast...already up to 10lbs. There are a few of his big sis too! 

Grandma (GaGa) and her grandkids (she's not choking Alex...she was burping him)

So sweet! 

Usually Hannah won't cooperate...but she loves to pose in her Chief's shirt. 

First attempt at Hannah "holding" her baby brother.

Sporting his best duds for Thanksgiving dinner. 

Chilling out in his bouncy seat.

Check out the tie (on the onesie) and shoes on this kid! 

Alex is here!

As most of you know, last Thursday (11/11) we welcomed Alexander Joseph Storey to our family. He was born at 8:05am - weighing in at 8 pounds 9 ounces (exactly the same weight as Hannah) and 20 3/4 inches long. We're all home and settling in to life as a family of four. So far Alex is a great little baby -- and Hannah is doing a good job learning to be a big sister. When she comes home she always wants to find her "baby brother" (which she says like "broder" which is about the cutest thing you've ever heard). We truly are blessed!

Ready to get outta the hospital.

Hannah's Boo Boo

Thursday we took Hannah to get her flu shot. She actually did a great job getting her shot and was so excited to get her stickers. However, after the shot we were outside playing with Hannah and she while having fun and chasing her daddy...she had a total wipe out on the cement outside the doctor's office. She pretty much caught herself with her lips (no hands). Luckily she's a tough kid...and was running around later that night. 

 

Happy Halloween

Hannah was a little blonde Snow White for Halloween. She wasn't feeling all that good on Sunday so we ended up just going over to my mom's for a little bit. When we got home - Hannah did have a fun time watching for the kids to come to the door. 

 

Blue-tiful

Finally took a few pics of baby boy's new room. It's a sea of blue - but we're pretty sure he'll like it. Crazy to think that he'll be here in less than 2 weeks....guess it's crunch time.

 

Belly Pics

Two Saturdays ago we had out photographer (Kim Hudson) came over to take some "belly" pics for us. She did some for us when I was pregnant with Hannah - so we wanted to do the same for baby boy. Here are a few cute ones from the morning.
