Brevyn's 1st Playdate

The day after Christmas we went to see our extended family. Brevyn and Cooper Kohanski got to have their first play date (the first of many.) They didn't quite know what to make of each other at first. Then they hugged, looked at crazy puppies and laughed. I think they even told each other a few secrets.

Christmas 2009

We spent Brevyn's 1st Christmas in Syracuse. We started off at Matt's family. Everyone enjoyed all the food and desserts. Brevyn however, decided that he would rather spend the day napping with Aunt Jill. Next, we went to my mom's family Christmas. Brevyn, Natalia and Joshua made out like bandits. Natalia kept telling everyone how "soft" Brevyn was. Too cute. Brevyn got a jumperoo and it by far has been his favorite thing. Brevyn's 1st Christmas was a memorable one (even if only Matt and I will be the ones that remember.)

Christmas Eve 2009

We spent Christmas Eve with my dad and brother Danny. It was great. We opened presents, enjoyed "It's a Wonderful Life", had a little fruity goodness and relaxed before heading out the next day. Everyone loved their presents from "Santa." Grandpa Jim got Brevyn a HUGE penguin that he loved. Uncle Danny couldn't get enough of his nephew.

Great Grandma and Grandpa Carbery

Christmas 2009 was started off with a visit to Brevyn's Great Grandparents House. It was so wonderful spending time with them. Of course Grandma went all out and made us a wonderful lunch. The best part was seeing the connection between Brevyn and Grandpa. Grandpa just lighted up with Brevyn. It was the most wonderful Christmas present.

My buddy Spike

One of Brevyn's newest buddies is Spike. He is a Rhinosaurous. We got home from shopping the other day and he had fallen asleep holding Spike. Too cute.

Christmas Photos

So 5 months and come and passed so quickly. Our little guy is not so little anymore. We are gearing up for Christmas here in the Carbery house. We took his Christmas photos the other day. The wonder in his eyes is just so beautiful. You should be expecting them in a mailbox near you very soon. :)

Yosemite!

Uncle Larry

Uncle Larry and B-Rev. That is Larry's nickname for him and it has kind of stuck. He had a great time messing around with his uncle. Uncle Larry did have to give him some yummy Guinness when mommy wasn't looking. Love you uncle Larry.

Thanksgiving...Grandmas, Grandpas & Uncles...oh my

California Thanksgiving!! We got to see both Matt's mom's and his dad's families on Thanksgiving. The day was full of Grandmas, Grandpas and Uncles...OH MY! Brevyn took it all in. What a great time.

Cousins

While in California, Brevyn got to play with all his cousins. Erik, Patrick (who was too shy to pose for a picture), Hannah and Bella had a blast spending time with him. The tossed him around like a hot potato! "My Turn" was a common phrase. We can't wait until he is walking, because then he might run for cover. :)
