Blogger Problems

Hey folks,

I have lots of great Thanksgiving pictures to share. I have lots of pictures of our Christmas decorating and picking out a tree. Unfortunately, blogger is having some issues. It's telling me that I've reached my picture quota (which I know is a possibility) but when I look around it tells me I've used 0% of my storage space. It tells me to purchase more storage. (No thanks!) Some people said to start a new blog (Done: lockridgeland2.blogspot.com) but that won't let me add pictures either. I looked around some more and it seems as though lots of people are having problems adding pictures right now. So, instead of purchasing more space I'm just going to hang in there and wait patiently for the problems to be fixed. Hopefully soon, because I have some cute pictures of my little guys! :)

Happy Holidays!

Lockridgeland Update

Lockridgeland has been busy, busy, busy but still taking time to enjoy the fall weather and each other's company. Our boys are growing so fast and we're having so much fun getting to watch them learn and explore. Here's a quick peek at what we've been up to:
Caleb is starting to do some independent play with his new birthday toys. (Thanks Auntie Claire & Uncle Roger for the cool workbench!) It's so fun to watch him learn these new things but it's also nice for his big brother that he's into his own things instead of just destroying everything around him. :)

We got to celebrate Uncle Charlie's birthday and we still love his awesome fish tank. Hours of entertainment!

Levi is getting really creative and has so many new words and sentences. Here we are coming back from the park with his "sword" and "fishing pole" (both sticks) because he's a pirate.

I got to take a trip down to LA last weekend to celebrate one of our favorite people and their coming-soon-baby. I got to ride down with my mom, hang out with my mom and dad, eat some awesome food (hello, Bruxie! Waffle sandwiches, what???), go out to dinner with three amazing girlfriends, stay with the Smarts and their sweet, sweet girls, and go to a great baby shower. It was so fun! And Dave held down the fort while I was away. Everyone was happy, rested and without pants. :)

Caleb has finally figured out where Daddy is when he says he's "going to work." That means lots of door knocking, handle jiggling, and sneaky trips to see Daddy. From the outside of the door it's pretty cute, from the inside probably a little less cute. 

This big boy thinks he's a big boy. He would rather walk then ride in the stroller, so he's finding all sorts of fun, new things around him. It makes for a little more hand washing but it's pretty fun to see his interest in new things.

And last but not least, we're looking forward to the annual Turkey Trot this Thursday. It's only our 3rd year participating but we've taken two little babies with us in the past and has really become a part of our Thanksgiving traditions. Gobble gobble!
