Team Anders Christmas

Waiting for Santa
I hope this quick update finds everyone happy, healthy and 5 lbs heavier like yours truly. OK, OK, I don't really hope for the last part but dang I need to slow my caloric roll :) 

Anyway, we've had quite the crazy December so I've been horrible with keeping these posts current after my birthday. Sorry bout that. But here we are. Gonna hit you with a few more over the next couple days (I hope). I'll start with Christmas.



 Our holiday break started on Saturday the 22nd with a fun family trip to Columbus and the Center of Science & Industry (COSI). They have a kidspace that Easton really enjoyed. Tons of stuff to climb on, jump off and throw around. 




 Christmas Eve was a day off for both Jace and I so we had a major lounge day. It was EXCELLENT! 
Not much to see here. The scene stayed the
same for many, many hours
We let Easton open one gift.  Jace loved it.

E spent the rest of the night playing
without any pants on. why not?


Merry Christmas Eve
Easton woke up around 8am on Christmas morning and it was time to see what Santa had brought our little homie. We skyped with Grandpa Dean and Grandma Cheryl and then Auntie Sherry and 4-16 the original. As to be expected our little man was totally spoiled.  Thank you, thank you, thank you (love, Easton)!

Thanks, Grandpa Dean :)
The afternoon finally rolled around and it was time to go pick up my mom, dad and brother at the airport. This is the first Christmas we've spent together since 2008 so I was really excited.  We got back to the house in the late afternoon and opened all our presents. It was fun to watch Easton get a little more excited about unwrapping his gifts compared to last year.





Merry Christmas from the Tomlinson/Anders!

After little E went to bed we had a nice family dinner :)
Cheers!
I hope you all had a wonderful time wherever you spent your holiday!

Introducing...Easton Douglas Anders!

Easton Douglas Anders - 3 days old More pictures @ http://www.our365.com/ He's here, he's here!!!  Jace and I welcomed our son Easton Douglas to the world this past Saturday, April 16th at 4:22 PM and we couldn't be more proud.  It was an awesome experience...not so much in the "incredibly cool, can't wait to do it again" context but genuinely in AWE of how mother nature and modern medicine can work together to ease a woman and efficiently deliver a baby.  Before I tell you all a little bit about our story (again, no worries, I won't blast all the nitty gritty across your screen) I must say a HUGE thank you to our staff at Winchester Hospital.  Though I know not a single of of those doctors, nurses and other staff members will read this they will forever hold a special place in our hearts for the outstanding service and love they showed all three of us!!  They exceeded any expectations Jace and I might have had and just had to throw that out there. ...

My Bachelorette Weekend

Jace has been in MN since Thursday braving the cold with  Team Franchise at the 2011 US Pond Hockey Championship .  The team made it to Sunday again this year but unfortunately couldn't get by the "Pulled Hammies" this morning to advance to the finals.  Better luck next year, boys! :( So, since he's been gone I've been catching up on projects around the homestead since it's been so damn cold outside.  On Thursday night I scanned in about 80 old family photos that I had received over the years from my Aunt Kathleen.  I decided to do this because I'm building an online baby book for mini-Ma$e and you can add pictures - thought it'd be fun to add some old family photos.  Anyway, I won't overload you with too many but here are some of my favorites...the rest can be viewed here . Moving on... Friday started off with another snowstorm - excellent.  Hanscom was open for business...well, that is, for everyone ex...

Trunk or Treat 2013

We just got back from Trunk or Treating at Easton's daycare...how flippin' fun (and pretty roarsome as Henry Hugglemonster would say). Mr. Blondie waiting for the trunk or treating to begin! Still figuring out that the chocolate must be unwrapped first. No hurry to explain :) Homeless Lion with a Market Basket bag. Score one for the parents. Some pretty creative pumpkins!
