These last few weeks we’ve had a couple of milestones of epic proportion in the Richardson household. Yes, Noah was born which we are all very grateful for. Brooks got to meet his new partner in crime a few days after birth when he returned from a networking business trip to Savannah, GA.
Brooks has started eating solid foods. We actually did this over at Shawn & Tiff’s house.. not sure why their house, guess if it got nasty.. anyways. Brooks has also started what seems to be his new love for the Jumping Seat. Honestly, I’d be pretty stoked if they made an adult version of that chair. Its hard to think someone wouldn’t like it.
Today is Noah Christian Richardson’s birthday. Tiffany was a real champ as she delivered Noah who weighed in at a whopping 9lbs. 11oz. All are well and we were excited that Shawn was able to work out through his whole deployment stuff to be around for the birthday and as long as he was.
one of our new year resolutions is to do less tv. as we looked at ourselves we became more and more a part of our couches & spending way too much time watching television on an account of tiredness or some other excuse. so, with this new year we are turning off the tv for three days of the week. our chosen days are sunday, monday, & wednesday. we are not allowed to alternate the television for more computer time or tv program on the computer, but we can use the tv if we are making use of our wii-fit.
i however am making a bit of an exception today. i watched my buddy dixon & kids feature presentation of “indiana jones & the temple of the komodo dragon.” they started this project some time back & posting a bunch of teasers. its one of the coolest family projects i’ve ever seen… even if i’m not supposed to be watching tv today.
We hope you all had a very Merry Christmas!! Ours was quite good with the little man in tow. Went down to “Nana & Grandpa’s” house in Birmingham where we spent a few days and Christmas morning, then back home to meet up with some of the Foster Clan (which is always a raucous time).

today we took Brooks over to Rock Castle for a little meet up with Santa. he seemed rather disinterested in this person wearing red. he did however seem quite interested in a team of people wearing crimson red later in the afternoon.
