Hope you all has a Blessed Christmas with your families. Ours was amazing. So much fun with Andray and being with our families. We're thinking of you and wishing you a belated Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year!
Love, the Stang's....
Andray...our Christmas angel...
Andray's Daycare had a Christmas party...and Santa showed up! Andray wasn't quite so sure about Santa's beard...it was priceless!
OUR OWN STANG CHRISTMAS - December 20, 2008
Andray with all his gifts...Santa was very good to him, brought him a Duke outfit even for March Madness!
Andray loved his first Christmas!
STANG CHRISTMAS - December 21, 2008
The Stang Cousins...
Mya (1 1/2 years), Skyler (5 years), Andray (9 months) and Ella (4 years).
Andray loves his Godmom Sarah.
Mya helped Andray open his gifts from Gpa and Gma Stang...Skyler and Ella made sure that everyone who opened a gift had a bow on their head!
Andray's outfit was from Auntie Rachel and Uncle John...thanks, so cute!
Sarah and Eric are huge UNC fans...and they love to rub it in and make fun of Duke! Ha! So for Christmas they bought all the nieces and nephew a UNC t-shirt for March Madness...hilarious! Jake and I couldn't believe our own eyes that Andray was in "baby blue UNC colors"
FRIEND'S CHRISTMAS - December 23, 2008 - Redwood Falls, Minn.
Andray and I went into town to visit Ann and Andrew for Christmas. Andrew is our Godson and it was so fun to see him again and for he and Andray to play together. Emily, Ann's sister, showed up too with her two kids, they all played so well together! It was a good time!
FRANK CHRISTMAS - December 22-25, 2008
Gpa and Gma Frank with their two grandchildren....Andray and Isa Lu...on Christmas Eve.
Andray loves his cousin Isa...they had a blast opening gifts together!
Our beautiful niece Isabel Lucia on Christmas Eve...
Isa loved all the Hallmark musical Christmas figurines that Mom had out in the house. It didn't take her long to figure out how to make the music start on all of them!
Isa and Andray had a ton of fun playing together. Andray misses his cousin soooooooooo much already! Wish we could see each other more often!
The Frank cousins are future Huskies! Go SCSU!
Isa made this Reindeer t-shirt for Andray out of her own handprints! So special!
Andray loves his gift from his Godfather Jacob! Thanks Jacob!
Andray was kept busy playing chess with Papa Larry and Uncle Aaron as well....
Andray worked on figuring out his sippie cup this past week too!
Uncle Jacob is the best uncle ever...he had so much fun with Andray and Isa Lu!

STANG WEDDING - December 19, 2008
Jake's cousin Brianna got married on Friday, Dec. 19, in St. Augusta. It was an honor to have the wedding party and her family get ready at our house! What a beautiful family photo in the snow below.....
Well, it's been a tough week. Andray's been very sick since Saturday morning. Temp, won't eat or drink, and very restless. But we've been lucky, this is really the first bad spell of him being sick that we've had. Just tough to see them that way, especially when he can't tell us what hurts! Despite being sick, his temp did break yesterday while I was home with him, so we worked on crawling. At least we can get him to get on his knees finally! Anyway, have a great rest of your week, hopefully Andray will start eating today so we can send him to daycare tomorrow. Love, the Stang's
Jake thinks Andray's talking to the ref saying, "Straight Up!" hehehehhehe.
Dray loves his NBA basketball and can roll it back and forth with us. He also likes to throw it up in the air and watch it come down (even if it smokes him on the forehead!). I do see a little follow through in his shot too! Can't wait until he starts smiling like this again!
Happy belated birthday Mom! Well, we pulled it off! Mom's wonderful sister Sue and her husband Dennis, my awesome husband and brothers, and of course great Dad, surprised Mom for her 60th birthday. It was a very small gathering, with Mom's family and some of her closest high school and college friends. We just missed Megan, Isa, Adam and Gpa Shorty dearly at the party! Everything was worth it, especially when she saw Aaron there! Have a great week everyone...Love, the Stang's
Andray turned 10 months old yesterday, the time is just flying. He's doing well, has six teeth now, and probably starting to work on some more. Have a great weekend everyone, try to stay warm in this bitterly cold weather!
