Hanging out boy style

I'm pretty outnumbered over here, but I have to say I LOVE it! I love having all boys!
Ty has warmed up to being a big brother I think. I still have to watch him like a hawk though. For example the other day he saw his brother having some tummy time and he looked at me and said, "Mom can I step on him please?" Oh brother!
Grandma's lap was the chosen nap spot of the trip. He fell asleep every time he laid down! We need you to come back Grandma!!!

Orlando w/ Gma and Gpa Hill 12/1/11

 We hung out for a bit at Downtown Disney and had fun looking at all their Christmas decorations.
And then we went to the Gaylord Palms hotel to see ICE. We went to the TX one a few years back and loved it! The theme this year was Shrek and it was really cool...I stayed out with the baby, but everyone else went in to see it. 
Going down the ICE Slides!!

The nativity room at the end. So pretty!
The hotel was decorated so amazing for Christmas. We were in awe the whole time!
They fed the alligators that they had inside when we were there and let me just say the guy feeding them was just crazy! He was surrounded by them the whole time and he would just kick them down when they started trying to crawl on his legs.  Ya I wouldn't be surprised if he only had 4 fingers on each hand...or less!

Thanksgiving and Grandpa Hill's Birthday

We were so lucky to have Grandma and Grandpa Hill here for Thanksgiving and for Grandpa's Birthday this year.  It really was so much fun!
Flying with Daddy
Three Turkeys :)
Our littlest turkey :)
Yummy feast
Hanging out and relaxing
Brady and Ty decorated for Grandpa's party and blindfolded him to show him his surprise. He loved it!
Pumpkin pie cake
He got a quarter book and by the end of his trip we found all the P's and D's for each state (many trips to the bank to get quarter rolls in order to find them all!!)
Love from Ty...not sure he's loving it though!
Watching some football while we decorated for Christmas.  My buckeyes did not do so well, but at least the Ducks pulled through for the Oregon fans in the house!

Grandpa and BB decorated a gingerbread house. It turned out great!
