Lili's Backpack

Lili picked out her own backpack for preschool. She is so excited. She wanted one with wheels and got it! She had her haircut here. She can't wait to "go to school"!

Nolan

Nolan LOVES corn. Who are we kidding? He loves FOOD! Our little mohawk love.

Here's to you Nana.

Nana would love this one.

Really?

Lili is totallly into dress up. Can you tell? Poor Fletcher. He is such a good sport.

Our Lovebugs.

Well, it's the best we could get last Saturday! :)

Nolan's turn for Pictures!

Nolan was a bit difficult to photograph too! He isn't sitting up yet and was a bit crabby. All in all tho, we got a few cute ones!

Picture time!

Here are some shots of Lilianna. She wasn't totally into this time. She was very quick to tell the photographer how she wanted to sit though!

Our Swimmer

We went to Florida a few weeks ago with Ma and Papa Bruce. Lili fell in love with swimming!

By day two, she was swimming on her own with her floaties, not letting us go near her to help her! Can't imagine where she gets her love of the pool from (and her independence!).

Peek A Boo

So it might not be that exciting, but he is laughing, gurgling and making some really great noises! He is just too cute! Lili loves him so!

Catching up...

A few newer pics.

Sleepy Nolan

He may be sleeping in most of these, but don't let him fool you! He isn't much of a sleeper! We are working on it tho!

More meet Nolan pics!

Few more shots with Papa Al, Aunt Sally and Uncle Bill. Not to mention the ole pros at being the older cousins, Jimmy and Alex!

Holiday photos

It's taking a little while, but here are some shots from the holidays and Nolan's birth. We were blessed to have so much family around both for the holidays and on the day Nolan was born. Here are just a few of the many shots!

More Little Man pics!

A few pics from the most recent doctor's visit. (Notice the booties Aunt Shelly and Uncle Georges?!). Nolan is almost up to his birth weight. He is a joy each day! :)

Nolan!

After 9 + months, Nolan Michael Russell arrived on time on Dec. 29th, 2009 at 10:28 am. He weighed in a 9 lbs, 1 oz. We were very blessed to have lots of family around us for the first few days and all is well.
