Mom mom and our very own Buddy the Elf (What's your favorite color?)

I know the holidays have past but I am hoping many of you saw one of the best holiday movies of all times, ELF with Will Ferrell. We watched this movie, Doug actually, for the very first time!

Good thing he saw it otherwise this photo we took a few days later wouldn't have been nearly as funny.

Mommom came to visit us in Houston at the end of December. Zachary loved getting to spend time with his mi-mom. We took some wonderful photos of this visit, with Zachary and mi-mom. This one photo made us all laugh though. The others are at the bottom.

What's so funny about this photo you might ask? Check out the one below for comparison sake.

In case you forgot...................

that Zachary is probably the cutest little guy in the whole world. Sorry if that offends anyone, I guess I should have gotten rid of the probably!

The Plague of 2008!

Please keep your fingers crossed as I think the Plague of 2008 may finally be leaving our home! I knew when Zachary started daycare there was a chance he would be get sick once in a while. Hmmm. Maybe I was naive. He managed to catch a cough and has had it ever since. He also has brought every illness home to me as well. I guess that doesn't say much about my own immune system.



Well, this most recent bug has been a whopper. It started on December 29 and just left last week, more than 18 days of being ill, and not just a little sick, but full on ILL!!! And of course, as luck would have it Doug has also now contracted the plague. He is just about done his Z-Pak and Zach seems to be doing a little better too. We have scrubbed down the house, loaded up on vitamins and have been eating as healthy as we can. I have also been praying that Zach finally gets well, sleeps soundly and that all of us get stronger and beat these nasty viruses!

I hope you all load up on vitamin c, wash your hands frequently and stay away from anyone who has the slightest inclination on illness. You do not want this.

Zachary and the Aggie Motherland

This is another late post but I wanted to be sure to add it on. Zachary went to his first Texas A&M athletic event over the Christmas holiday week. Mike and Mary Walker have season tickets to the Aggie Men's basketball team and were nice enough to take us to the game with them. Here are some photos to document the momentous occassion.

Doug and Zachary on the court.

Zachary is a jumpin'

As we are actively working towards our New Year's resolutions, Zachary has taken up a new hobby of his own. Jumping. He LOVES it! Here are a few pics and a video of him jumping away! He is officially now a Zach-AROO!!!

Another funny story. I was doing something in the Kitchen the other day, so I sat Zach on the corner of the couch. Below is a photo of how I left him.

(And yes, he is crossing his little feet all the time now. So Funny.)

and another how I found him. He definately takes after his father. Doug never met a couch he didn't enjoy laying on.

A man of many, many talents.............

Happy New Year!

Happy New Year Everyone!

2007 was such a great year for us, we are very much looking forward to 2008!

and man, did we start it off with a BANG! Zach, Doug and I were all asleep at the late hour of 9pm. Zach managed to wake up at 11:58 pm requesting a celebratory drink (of Formula), then headed back to bed. I know it doesn't sound very exciting but I honestly cannot think of a better way to start the new year than with sleep and of course, my boys.

I will be updating this blog over the weekend. Listing our resolutions (including Blogging more) and updating everyone on Life! I know I haven't been as good as I should be with updating this page and I will be making it a priority in the coming year.

We wish all of you a wonderful 2008~ I have a feeling this is going to be a great year for many of you.

Love you all.

The Walker Family.
