Smiley Kiley...

A little video of Kiley at 8 weeks old. Just hanging out on the bed while I folded laundry.

Santa...

This year Santa brought Cole a Smart Cycle. At first I think he wasn't real sure about it, but once we plugged into the TV he loved it. This was the first year Cole really understood all the hoopla about presents and gift giving. It was great to see the anticipation and excitement on his face.

Silly Monkeys...

Here are a few cute pictures I took Christmas day when the kids were playing on the couch. I'm sad the last one is blurry because it looks like they were both smiling. Oh, and Cole totally thought that Kiley was purposely trying to tickle his neck, which of course cracked us all up.

Baby Love...

On Christmas Eve everyone wanted a turn holding Baby Kiley.

Family...

Michelle, Mike & crew and Matt, Jennifer and their gang of elves.

Christmas Eve...

Christmas Eve we headed over to Nana's house for fun with the whole Beckham Family. All 9 crazy cousins were there and they had a blast playing and opening gifts.

Best. Gift. Ever.

Cole's most very favorite gift this year was his Sheriff Woody that Mimi & Papa gave him. He asked Santa for it in his letter and luckily Santa knew that Mimi had already bought it. Since I knew it was going to be a big hit and my parents weren't there to see him open it I took a video clip Christmas morning. As a side note, he has slept with Sheriff Woody every day since Christmas.

Christmas Smiles...

Merry Christmas...

I think we're all ready for Christmas at the Beckham house. Just wanted to share our Christmas card from this year. The stunning photos were taken by Agnes.

Jingle Bells...

Jonathan took this video of Cole while I was away visiting my Dad one weekend. Oh, and I have no idea what he is wearing.

Lego Mania...

Cole got a gift certificate from Toys R Us a few weeks ago for being a good big brother. He picked out this Lego Tow Truck set while we were at the store. We had fun putting it together and he was so very proud when we completed it.

Nap Time...

Isn't it funny how with your first child you make sure that they take good quality naps in their crib and with the second you just kind of plop them wherever, whenever? This is how Kiley napped the other day while Cole and I were playing cars nearby in the living room.

A Team of Angels...

Typically all Christmas card photos are taken during our summer trip to St. Augustine. However, this year since we were awaiting the arrival of Baby Kiley (aka grandchild #9) the picture had to be taken much later. Since I know their cards have already gone out I thought I'd post some pictures from the photo shoot with Michael, Jean and all 9 of the grandchildren.

Dear Santa...

Cole wrote out his letter to Santa last week. I also had him do one on Kiley's behalf. His requests were: a new Lightning McQueen, a Woody, a ball, and some new crayons. You may recall that last year he requested some cheese. Nothing quiet as strange this year although, I'm not sure what his deal is with always asking for a ball. For Kiley he asked for some new cars, a new blankie, and a new hat. She never wears hats.

Santa...

Last week when my mom was in town we took the kids to see Santa. Cole jumped right up on his lap and told him what he wanted. Kiley of course slept the entire time.

Elf Children...

Super Dad...

When Kiley was just 2 weeks old I had to rush off to Miami to take care of my Dad. I was gone for 4.5 LONG days. While I was away Jon was super dad. He took care of both kids and even had to deal with our refrigerator dying. This was just one of the many pictures he sent me while I was gone.

C & K...

While I was out of town last month Agnes came over and took some stunning pictures of the two kids together. I just can't believe how adorable they both look!

Kiley's First Bath...

Here are a few pictures from Kiley's first bath. Cole's job was to pour the water on her belly so she didn't get cold. He loved it and had a great time helping.

Pretty, Pretty Princess...

More from the photoshoot with the tutu. By the way, I think Kiley should wear pink every day.
