Nathan Wilmer & Evan Michael Heins

How is it already January and Evan is already 7 months old? Crazy. We dont have a lot to report from the month. After the craziness of Christmas its been nice to have a few quiet weeks to recuperate.

We had to do the pictures of the two boys twice this month. Evan is moving around a lot more and seems to have a fascination with Nate’s eyeballs. So, these were the best from both attempts.

Thanks G.G. for the wonderful month together. We loved having you here. Stay safe and we’ll see you next Christmas!

We had a very busy week. From the 24th to the 29th all we did was run. We basically were home only to sleep. It was a wonderful week despite the hectic pace and the boys were absolutely amazing considering their routine totally went down the toilet. I had so many people comment on how wonderful and how well behaved they were. Must be doing something right.

After being postponed a week due to weather, the Heins’ packed up the van and headed out to find a tree. This will be the last year for a while that we have a ‘real’ tree because once we got it home, the finished product just didnt make the mess worth it. I hit Walmart on Boxing Day and have a beautiful artificial tree to put up next year.

Anyway…pictures from the Great Christmas Tree Search of 2010

I made an appointment at Loblaws. I packed two boys in all their winter gear. I drove 20 minutes to the Loblaws. I unpacked both boys. I tamed some VERY unruly hair. I had them looking like angels. I waited for an additional ten minutes. Then I noticed the sign. The portrait studio was not open until ten. Which is sort of strange since I had an appointment at 9:40.

Nate has decided he no longer needs an afternoon nap. Thank God for Krista (Nate’s daycare) because I would be losing my mind if he had no down time at all. This came at a time when Evan was just starting to work out a nap schedule and I was thinking I would get some time to myself during the day!

I have been collecting pictures of the various sleeping positions of Nate, and after 100 or so pictures, I thought I had seen it all. Until I went in to check on him one night. This is what we found:
