Congratulations Nick and Jesie!!!

Proud parents Nick and Jesie, welcomed our newest nephew into the world. He is a healthy baby boy--8 pounds 12 ounces, 21 inches long-Beau Micheal is the newest addition to our family. We are so happy for them, and so blessed to have another healthy baby in our family. We cant wait to meet him!!!

This makes three boys for the Flinn family---as most of you know my husband has three brothers---I think history may be repeating itself, and we can look forward to a lot of trouble and playing in the future with all of these boy cousins within 18 months of eachother!!! We cannot wait until they are wrestling and running around!!!

So Far in 2009...

So far in 2009 we havent done very much. Brayden has been sick on and off since New Years weekend. Its the winter crud, and we cant get rid of it completly. His nebulizer treatments have helped so much, and we are glad he is feeling better, we just hope he is 100% soon! Nathan and I both decided that little babies shouldnt get sick. We feel so bad when they are so helpless. In between not feeling well, he has grown so much, and has gotten so strong. He loves his cereal and his exersaucer. And today he FINALLY rolled over from his tummy to his back. I am so glad he decided to do it on my day off so I could see it----he is always such a good boy to his mommy :)

Braydens First Christmas

Brayden had a great first Christmas and we enjoyed it with him. Christmas was crazy, but we are very thankful that we got to visit with all of our families. Here are a few pictures of our Christmas celebrations.

Picture of my family at Reese Christmas--this was also grandpa Nusbaum's birthday---Happy 50th Birthday Grandpa!!!!

Getting ready to go to Grandma and Grandpa's house on Christmas Eve.

Picture of Bray looking at one of his gifts from Santa. We thought he wouldnt be that into the presents this year, but we were suprised when he couldnt take his eyes and sometimes hands off the paper and the presents. We loved it!

Christmas Day we went to Nonna's for Nusbaum Christmas, Nonna bought Brayden a special little people's nativity, here they are checking it out! All of the Nusbaum cousins. About every three years, all of the Nusbaums get together and celebrate, it was so nice to be able to visit with our Colorado family, we definetly do not get to see them enough.

Friday after Christmas we hopped back into the car and went to Missouri to celebrate the Flinn Family Christmas weekend. Grandma Flinn made us pizza at her house Friday, and Aunt Amanda and Uncle Jesse had the family to their house for an all day Pajama Christmas on Saturday. As you can see with our ever growing family--we take up a lot of room...I can only imagine how next years pictures will look. We are very lucky that we get so many opportunities to be able to spend time with them.

Here is Cohen---17 months old...I wonder if he is thinking..."when are all these people going to leave?"

I know its late, but I hope everyone had a great Christmas and has a great 2009!
