Sprague Family

I just had to put pictures of Atticus and all his presents! Okay, those are not all for him, but he did have a ton. Ryan did most of the opening of presents, that is what ryan is good at. Atty did try to help! Atticus playing with his new toy!! Hope you all had a Merry Christmas!!

These are some pictures taking at Sandy's house. They crack me up! It moves, sings ( wayyy off tune!) and lights up. It is just so addicting! Look, you can kind of see his teeth! He has his two bottom ones that are pretty much full in now, and the top ones are close! He just might have his two front teeth for Christmas !

So in celebration of Christmas soon coming, here are some pics of atticus in Christmas attire! These first two were taken by kelly at their house. It took a long time to get a smile out of him! "if you can't bite/chew it, why have it?" These were taken at Walmart and I love them! Every time he smiled he would kick his leg! Hopefully atticus will see some real snow when we are up in wenatchee for the holidays..

We had to share the smile we get whenever Atty see's us after a nap. (We woke him up because we had to leave)

Yikes. I have been so bad about posting! Hopefully I will get better! We had a WONDERFUL thanksgiving (minus some colds). My whole family came down and stayed with us. ( that's right 7 people, one baby and a crazy dog in my little house!) We had a good time going to the beach, decorating my house (okay mostly just me) playing games and eating lots of food! ( Atticus keeps his eyes on the dog, and apparently so did I! And that black thing on me is a carrier for Atticus ) I love how we caught Xerxes mid-run! This is our family minus Ryan at the beach (poor guy has to work Friday after thanksgiving!) I'm taking the pic. (that is atticus's "wheres waldo hat!") Sarah took some AMAZING pics as our holiday photographer . Julie and Xerxes ran most of the time while we were at the beach. Mostly Xerxes. He had the time of his life. Told you they were awesome pics. I'll post more pics soon, i have a ton of fun Atticus pictures to catch up on!

This is one of the best Pics of Xerxes i have ever gotten. Isn't he so cute? (You can't even tell how crazy he is) Atticus in his "Cowboy Tim" outfit as Ryan calls it! Wow. I got both of them to look at me at the same time! What a shot! This is how Daddy watches Atticus! (hehe not all the time but it was a funny picture! and of course that is homemade ice cream Ryan is eating) Dad this one is for you... Atticus is so going to be a computer boy. (he always reaches for the keyboard when i have him in my lap!)

Atticus was such a cute little pumpkin last night! (Although he just wouldnt smile for us...) We passed out candy at Aunt Sandy's house and then when Atty got to tired and no candy was left we came home. Atty went to bed, but after passing out what candy I could fine (a bit old, but no one complained!) Went and hid in the bedroom! (We live on a MAJOR trick or treat road, its crazy!) This is Beamer, Sandy and Kelley's little dog. Attiucs loves him! This is Atty and I passing out candy... or Atticus trying to eat the candy. I think he was a little frustrated when I wouldn't let him have any... :)

This is so I don't get in trouble for not posting an update! This is Atty's newest habbit, sucking his bottom lip. Its so cute! Grandma bought this outfit, and he does look cute. "I'm just hanging out on the porch, blowin bubbles..."

Ryan got a little tired, so we let Atty drive, as you can see he is a very careful driver, hands on 10-2 and looking out for traffic! :) Move over daddy I am ready to drive now! (Its in the blood!) Atticus as a cute (and surprised?) puppy! My two "dogs" (its hard to get them both still!) Well it has been a little while! Atticus and i were in Wenatchee last week to visit his other set of grandparents! We had a great time, although "Nana" Claimed that "it went by too fast!" We will be up again around new years. But everyone got to come home, and it was great to celebreate my dad's bday (won't mention age...) with everyone. I still have to find a few of the cute pictures we took while up there, but here are some that we took in the car and then a outfit I had for Atticus that I wanted him to try on.

This weekend we went to Crater Lake! I had never gone, and was excited. We were afraid that the fires might close the park, but it was open. And apparently it was national park day or something, so we got in free! Tara, Ryan's sister came with us and it was a lot of fun, albeit smokey from the fires! Here are some pictures... I love the one with Atticus! Can you tell that Atticus does NOT like to be still?!

This is for you Mom who wanted something she had not seen. This was last week, the first time in the jumper. He is a bit tired and not so sure he wants to be there! It does show off his super strong legs! :)

July 4th was Atticus's first holiday! We got to go hang out in Wenatchee, which was wonderful to enjoy their nice warm weather. Sadly, we were only there about two days. But we got to see fireworks, have our baby dedicated and see some good friends! My mom and Atticus, kicking and having fun Cherries, Ryan's favorite part of summer in Wenatchee! Us by the Columbia on the 4th Wenatchee is so Beautiful!! I miss you! Dad and Atty hanging out.

Okay, so I finally am going to try this new blog thing... So all you people who don't get to see us everyday ( basically everyone we know) Can know whats going on with us! Of course the big news is our almost 4-month old boy, Atticus Glen! He was born May 22, after I (Diana) was on 3 months of bed rest. He has been a wonderful treasure... who reminds me of that fact a few times a night still! Anyway, I'll post some pictures of our adventures this summer with him. For now, here are some from his first month: With Daddy and Aunt Tara! Right after Attticus was born (with Aunt Sandy) Atticus at one month! My dad with his new grandson! Uncle Robbie!
