Who do you think he looks like?  A lot of people say William looks like Claire.  I think he's a good mix of both kids.

 I feel something on my head that's not normally there.

 Oh wait, you have one, too!

Okay, one more picture.

Since over three months have passed since I updated this blog I figured it was about time!  Hopefully it won't be that long before the next post.  Enjoy!

 All snuggled up on a cold winter day!

 Nicholas and Claire had fun sledding down the hill in our back yard!

 Building this snowman was fun, too.

 After sitting in the jump up a few times, William got the hang of this contraption.  Now he practically flies in this thing!

 Silly kids!

 Brother bonding time.

Such a happy boy!

Christmas

The kids enjoyed the Christmas festivities this year, including decorating the tree,

visiting Santa,

baking cookies (and eating them, too!),

and posing for pictures.

Thanksgiving

We were blessed to spend Thanksgiving with John's side of the family.  Here is Grand Dad meeting William for the first time.

Grand Dad spent lots of time reading to the kiddos.  Here is is with Nicholas, Augustine, and Claire.

Grand Mom and Claire bonded as they read and colored.

We were even able to get outside for a little while and enjoy some sunshine!

The Aoun-Scivicque clan.

Grand Dad brought this awesome LEGO pirate ship that was John's when he was young. 

 

Nicholas and Claire had a great time carving pumpkins with Daddy.SS

Since Nicholas is not allowed to call his his little brother Billy, he decided that giving his pumpking that name was the next best thing.

 

Claire loves posing for the camera

And here is the final product.

 

Welcome Baby William!

 William Michael was born on October 5th at 7:10 a.m. 

He made such a fast entrance into this world that we were fortunate to make it to the hospital in time!

Nicholas was more than thrilled when he found out he had a little brother!

 Claire was just happy to have a real baby to hold.

 Here are big brother and sister taking a peak at William's full head of dark hair.

 Here is our new family of five.

 When we got home a few days later we discovered that William loved to sleep in his swing as long as it was NOT moving. 

 We spent lots of time holding William

 and cuddling him.

 Here are daddy and William having some guy time.

 I love spending quiet time in the evenings snuggling my little guy.

This is his favorite sleeping position.
