Brandon's 2nd Birthday and James' Baby Blessing

Brandon had his 2nd birthday on the 27th. I think he had a good day. We went to lunch and then we went to Reno. We went to Sheels and rode the ferris wheel and then we went to Outback where they sang to him. He was pretty excited. On Sunday we blessed James. He was a good baby and his dad gave him a great blessing. Later that night we had a birthday party for Brandon. He had a blast. He got to choose the dinner and so we had fetticine alfredo. Can you tell he enjoyed it. He couldn't get it in fast enough with two forks so Uncle Bub had to help. He had lots of friends and family there to celebrate with him. It was like Christmas all over again. All and all we had a great time in Fallon. While we were gone, the guy who delivered our fuel tank backed into my car and the snow grew quite a bit but other than that all was well.

The holidays in Fallon

So we have been in Fallon for a couple of days now and Brandon was so excited on Christmas Eve. We had a big family celebration with the McKnights and us. Santa dropped in a little early before making the rounds and gave all of the kids a set of pajamas. Brandon wasn't too sure if the guy was okay to be friends with or not. James really didn't care as long as he had the pacifier. Santa came later that night and gave Brandon a new "Cars" Tri-cycle. He was so excited and refused to get off. James got a few blankets and other baby items. Dwight recieved a bed roll to keep him warm and comfortable on campouts. I received a dodge caravan. We took family pictures today and boy was it cold. But they weren't to bad. We hope everyone had a merry christmas and the holidays have been fun for everyone.

It's beginning to look a lot like Christmas...

Well I am a little slow. Our tree has been up for 2 weeks. But I haven't really done much else. Dwight did get lights up outside, so he is doing better than me. All in all it is beginning to feel like Christmas. We have gotten most of the candy plates delivered, and cards are almost in the mail. Brandon is in charge of turning on the lights everyday. He loves it. He is doing better with the baby but still likes to pester him. James is really good. Still sleeps more in the day than at night but we are getting better. His cord and ring fell off last week so we were able to give him a real bath. He really enjoyed it until he had to get out in the cold. We have had a lot of snow this past week. And there is more on the way. I hope that we get the moisture we need, but man I could do without the wind. It makes it so cold. We have been in sub-zero temps the past couple of days.

And the name is.....

And the name is.....James Edwin Little. He is named after his two great grandfathers. We came home yesterday and it has been nice to be in a surrounding with family. My mom has been a major help with Brandon and the house. He is not sure about the baby yet. He tries to throw things at him, and doesn't quite understand that the baby can't protect himself yet. But I think he is getting the idea. We are both having a hard time, because I am not able to pick him up and he just wants mom to pick him up and hold him. So he is learning how to climb. But I think he found the perfect replacement. He loves his grandma so much. I really don't know what I would do without her.
