Julianne let me be in the delivery and believe it or not, I have never done that before. It was beautiful! What a heart stopping moment! I will never forget it! Oh and I got there about 10 minutes before she was born. It was crazy.

The kiddos that have been around for awhile ran around like nuts most of the time.

Hudson got to visit and hold here. He was so sweet and really in awe of her.

Stephen brought home some (illegal) fireworks for the boys to play with on New Years EVE. Stephen grew up in Houston where this is legal but in Victoria it isn't. Oh well, we went for it and so far no issues. They loved it!

Christmas Eve

arrival at the Brawner house

Major with his "pirate's who don't do anything" boat

I tried to teach the kids how to make a toast and say cheers. My advise after this experience is to wait a few more years. We had to clean up a little bit of punch after this... sorry, mom!

cookie tradition

Major decided to check it out

sweet hubby picked out amazing earrings and bracelet

Stephen got a new golf bag

Julianne treated us to this cool foot massage place. They massaged our legs and feet for an hour. They also give you oxygen, and you get to choose your smell. It was the best!

See Julianne with a 39 week baby bump? Well, it's there and I got to go to her check up that week. We both tried really hard to look sad and pitiful so he would induce but I guess he wasn't convinced. No induction yet... but stay tuned!

Merry Christmas from Grammy and Gramps

Grammy and Gramps came to visit a couple of days before Christmas. They brought us all some goodies. So, of course we started out with a little jumping on the trampoline. I can not believe I didn't get a picture of Gramps on the trampoline. He showed the boys a couple of tricks and had a little instruction session to pass along his skills. Then, Grammy jumped with the guys.

buzz and woody boots!

i think he likes them

Hudson got ahold of the camera and took a shot of his new kicks.

I'm so glad they made the effort to come visit during this crazy time of year!

Hudson's Christmas Party

Hudson's table eating lunch

making gingerbread houses

I got those mini gingerbread houses for each kid to make but as we were setting it up, I realized it was too much work for me :) So, I just gave them each the front part of the gingerbread house to decorate. No 3D for me. Flat is good and didn't require an engineering degree to assemble.

Major's party

I walked in without him noticing and surprised him. This is his surprised face.

book exchange

major's class did a group christmas present so this is the big presentation...

I came up with the idea and had lots of help from our room mom. I think it turned out precious!
