Finally...Some new updates

Okay, okay....it's been a long time so here is an assortment of recent events, along with the holidays.  Josh slacked a little so of course, I've taken over.  So, Geneva Elise has finally joined us.  Greyson still hasn't fully acknowledged that she exists but we try.  She's definitely giving him a run for his money on cuteness.  Anyways, we're so happy for Omar and Abbey.  Grey also has a lot more tricks now.  He says da da da (I swear it's not dada, just some babble), he sits on his own, he claps, and tries to put his arms up.  Every day there is something new.  As you can see, he has no problem eating, always keeps his mouth open and has yet to find a food he doesn't like.

Here is Geneva on her birthday!!!





We took Greyson to the park with the family.  He absolutely loves being on the swing.


Um....why did you put me on this thing dad?



Spalsh splash, I love baths!




Josh has a picture of him doing this same pose when he was little.  Except he was wearing a leotard and in ballet.



Go chargers!!  Greyson had a little to much to drink at the playoff game:)


Greyson supporting his favorite college team, the Utes.




One of his new tricks is he now claps.





Christmas 2008

The Christmas season was very eventful this year.  We started with a Christmas party for the foster kids in Alex's Foundation.  As you can see, Omar and Josh got in the spirit.  Liz and Alex came down for Christmas and as you can see, Grey had his first "Christmas Story" moment in his reindeer outfit.  Good choice Liz and Alex:)  You can also see Grey in his new favorite chair that Bubby got him for Christmas.  It has his name on it and everything.  There aren't that many pictures of Christmas because we played Rock Band for two days in our pajamas sooo.........





Here's Greyson with uncle Alex.  I call this his Italian gangsta outfit....













After hours of waiting in line, we finally made it so see Santa.  Grey of course fell asleep right before it was our turn.  I handed him over to Santa thinking "I'll just have a sleeping picture of him with Santa".  Bad idea....as soon as he woke up in Santa's arms, he started bawling.  Maybe next year will be better.

Mark's parents came to visit so here we are hanging out with Granma Alice and Grandpa Steve.


Thanksgiving

This year we spent Thanksgiving with the Lira Family.  Greyson wore his special Thanksgiving onsie that Abuelita got him.  Patty and Lissette cooked their first turkey and if I do say so, it was delicious.
