Let's not forget Xander!

I wanted to make sure I gave a little tribute to my nephew Xanderman! The poor boy has probably been completely neglected with the coming of these two new babies. Actually, let's be honest, "Buddy" is in town so maybe Lil is the one neglected... haha. So, Xander is so stinkin cute! He is such a funny boy!

When he had just turned one, they were living in Cali for the summer. My new husband Denver left to go to Alaska on a fishing trip for a week and a half with the men in his family. I was distraught and did NOT want to be home alone. So, I bought a ticket to Cali, with the help of my wonderful ma, and spent a week with my family! I was so excited to see Xander... little did I know what was coming. That little stinker screamed in my face all week long. Everytime I'd look at him, pick him up, tell him "I love you little man"... he would promptly get in my face and let out a good scream. So, being mature like I am, I would scream back. haha. This went on all week until it became a game to Xander. I think he actually enjoyed our screaming fits.

For his second birthday this last June, Xander's Aunt Hezzie & Uncle Denver, and Aunt Katie and Uncle Rode sent Xander his first pair of "cool boots". The lovely green rain boots pictured above became his new love. Kel said he his "cool boots" in the mail and wore them non stop for two weeks. She also mentioned that because they were so easy to slip on, he almost always had them on the wrong feet! :) I love this little boy! Once I find my favorite pic of him, I'll post it. It's real cute!
