I'm an Aunt X's 5....
Well come June I will be the Aunt to 5....BOYS!! We found out while we were visiting in TN that my sister will be having another boy at the end of May!! So including our 2 boys that means there are 7 boys between my sister and Rob's sister!! Thats a lot of boys and some strong odds that another Stanton would also be a boy....when the time comes!! They sure are cute boys though....just sayin.
Kara, don't hate me...this is the only picture 1/2 picture I have of baby boy # 3!
Next time lets make sure we take some pictures....
Christmas 2010
This year we traveled over the rivers and mountains to multiple grandparents houses!! The boys and I left Monday the 20th and went to my parents house to visit and to go to one of Jackson's best buddies birthday party! I can not believe our babies are almost 4 years old!! After staying there one-sleepless- night the boys and I headed on to Cookeville to GeeGee & Papa's house where we planned to do our entire Christmas!! We had a very busy couple of days visiting Rob's whole family and other friends in Cookeville.
| Too much fun?!?! |
| The kiddos! |
| They almost look innocent! |
| Cheese! |
| Did you say Santa was coming here??? |
| Suckers!! |
| Santa came!! |
| Oooo...that one looks good! |
| That was WAY too much fun!! |
| Rob was being waay too goofy! |
| GeeGee & Papa |
| Well the kids were in bed.....so I photographed the dog.... |
The day after Christmas we headed to Kingston for Christmas with my family. Mimi had fixed us all lots of yummy food and treats. By the time we got to my mom and dads the boys were sleeping a lot better. Although Jackson likes to wake up with the sun..or before... We had a wonderful visit with both families and the boys sure are spoiled!!

| Mimi got the boys a mini foosball table. They loved it!! Maybe a lil too much! |
| Where's Jackson?? |
| Bennett the Elf. |
| The 2 twinkies...these guys are very similar in size, looks, and attitude!! |

Take 1..2...3...
I was trying to get some pics of the boys in front of the Christmas tree last night and of course it was an act to get them to sit still, beside each other, and look in my direction...I mean really!! Whoever decided that a "good" picture is one that all people are looking at the camera and smiling, never had children (or boys at least)! It is very cold and very slick here! Only 9 days until Christmas!! We can not wait!!
| Apparently when I say "look at mommy's eyes" they think they need to show me theirs! |
| Bennett is 1/2 smiling. Jack is not looking. ugh.... |
| "Let's take a picture for Santa" got this reaction..... |
| Then Bennett had to copy brother. |
| I thought I would ask them what was on top of my head...so they would look at me. They did. But I got deer in the headlights too! |
| Both looking. One smiling. Score! |
| And. Done. |

All Aboard!!
Saturday the Children's Museum in Greensboro did a Polar Express theme day. They encouraged the kids to wear their pjs(no encouragment needed here). The boys had a blast. I was glad Robert was there with us..bc these two are EVERYWHERE when we go to this museum. It was hard to even get a couple pictures, my camera just can not keep up with them...seriously I think I need to donate it to a momma with girls who will pose for more than 3 seconds. All in all it was a great time and we were all exhausted afterwards. ;)
| Look! Im on TV |
| The face says it all! |
| A spot of tea?? |
| Snow fight! |
| Bennett = Sugar rush, Jackson=sugar crash |

Home for the Holidays
This year has been different that year's past. Normally come December Rob has been gone for training either 2-3 weeks. Last year was 3 weeks! I'm not sure how I even survived that...its all a blur thats for sure! That is not an issue this year..and hopefully for years to come! We have been enjoying being at our new home together this Christmas.
| Our stockings. |
| Winter wonderland |
| Our Christmas tree...note how much clearance there is...maybe 1/4 of an inch!! |
| Why do I need to go anywhere when I have these little entertainers!! |
| Ho Ho Ho |
| And yes....I cut his hair....actually I made Robert take him....I knew I wouldn't be able to watch the curls fall to the ground. |
