Asa's new way to eat his applesauce

Asa loves his fruit. He has even figured out that when applesauce is in a cup well you can drink it just as well as use a spoon to eat it with.

Asa's Bike

Asa has discovered the "car" i.e. the bike that Uncle Jim and Aunt Michelle got him for Christmas last year. Right now it is stored in the bedroom. He loves to walk/ride on his car. He hasn't quite figured out the pedals yet, but he has time.

A few of Asa's Fashion Statements

Over the next few days I will be auto-posting. I will try and check comments as often as I can, since I do not have internet at home at the moment. I am also playing catch up and posting some of the things that were lost in the bustle of this time of year.

Here are a few shots of Asa and his fashion.

Skylar's Birthday Party

I didn't include any of the gift pictures. She was very happy with all of her gifts and had a lot of fun. Asa and Eli enjoyed themselves as well. We had a pleasant family gathering.

Church Christmas Dinner

On December 6, we had the Christmas Dinner for the WCF group at church. I took pictures as usual. I tried to get at least one image of each of person that was there and as always I got close-ups of all the kids that were there. Although I know that Grayson doesn't care for his picture taken so I got a shot of him on the sly sitting next to his Grandma. At the end of the post I have placed the two videos of the kids along with Miss Connie singing Christmas Carols. I wish I would have recorded them singing Away in a Manger because Claudia did the signing that Miss Chris has been teaching them for the Christmas program. Enjoy.

Grandpa B's 75th Bday Party

A picture of Eli before Grandpa B. arrived.



Audrianna.

Skylar, yes I know she looks a bit like a serial killer in this image. She thought she was being cool and serious, I find it rather funny though.

Jaime holding her newest niece, Emily. Christopher is also in the picture.

Asa with black olives on his fingers, isn't that how you're supposed to get them to eat them?

A picture of Pastor Sweet and Grandpa W.

Some of the great-granddaughters playing. (Lauren, Bailey, and Audrianna)

Michelle H. and daughter Maddy.

Granny B. helping Eli to walk. Anyday now he will be doing it on his own.

A rare photo of Stacy (she's the other photographer in the family), but here she is holding Emily.

Talking and visiting.

Bailey, I can't get over how grown up she is getting. It wasn't that long ago that I was babysitting for her and she wasn't much bigger than what my boys are now.

Alaina.

Josiah.

Chris and Drew washing the dishes.

I tried to get a picture of Asa giving Grandpa (his Great-Grandpa as a matter of fact) a kiss. This is the best shot that I was able to get. Maybe another day.

Claudia is always good for a smile.

Grandpa's photo board that we put together.

Melissa holding Emily. Melissa really likes the babies and the fact that Emily slept so quietly in her arms was even better.

Chris took this picture of Asa sitting contentedly next to Bailey. They are rather cute sitting there all intrigued with what they are watching.
