Papa is teaching Korban how to shave! Korban thought it would be a good idea to try to eat the shaving cream though.
3 Generations minus Korban, who wasn't interested in having his picture taken at this time.
Papa and Korban running around and playing peek-a-boo in the Marktplatz in downtown Schweinfurt, blowing off some energy!
Papa and Korban reading stories to Ian!
Papa and Ian got some good naps in as well!
Jeff's last few minutes as a Corporal.
Korban and I got to put Jeff's Sergeant rank on him! (Ian was there as well as Melissa's parents.)
Congratulations Sergeant Leeper!
Jeff's promotion happened in the Motor Park of his company. It was raining outside and Korban had a blast with his own umbrella!
We had a 12th Chemical Company Halloween Party on Friday, Oct. 30th and we had some of the cutest pumpkins in the patch!
Ian snuggled right into his pumpkin costume and slept for the entire party!
I was informed that kids are only supposed to be "cute" for their first Halloween, then they can be scary. So, Jeff's platoon seargent gave Korban a "scary" face! Korban loved the face paint and he wasn't scared of any of the scary things! I think he's going to take after his dad in that department.
Here's Korban on Halloween while he was out trick-or-treating!
Ian wasn't quite sure what to think about his upcoming bath!
He loved being in the warm water, cooed the entire time!
Snuggling with daddy!
Korban was trying to get Ian to watch his "Praise Baby" video. They are so cute cuddling together!
Ian loves his sleep! He is sacked out here mid-stretch!
We got some good awake time today, too bad it didn't happen when we were trying to get his passport picture taken!
Ian follows Korban's voice already, looking to see what his big brother is up to!
Daddy and Ian are enjoying a nap together! It's hard work being a newborn.
Korban is loving having daddy home! Here they are enjoying licking the beaters for the pumpkin cookies that they made together!
Ian Patrick Leeper was born Friday, October 9th at 1:00p.m. in Schweinfurt, Germany! He weighed 7 lbs. 5 oz. and was 19.5 inches long.
Super happy mommy! He is finally here!
Proud daddy of another son!
Korban is a big brother!
So far, Korban loves being a big brother! He is already "helping" by carrying the carseat to the car with daddy! He likes to throw the diaper's away and lets us know when Ian is crying!
With the move and everything, we forgot to get 18 month pictures taken! So, I decided to take some myself, and only a month late!
Korban was a great help in getting meals made and frozen in preparation for Ian's arrival! We had so much fun cooking together! And now "cooking" is one of his favorite words and he thinks he always needs to help too!
He thought he was so funny "reading the paper"!
Since my belly is in the way now, Korban gives me hugs from the back. He likes to be squished too!
Korban helped me make brownies to take to the FRG meeting. He was sneaky and licked the spoon while I was answering the phone! Just like his daddy!
Korban is really starting to enjoy coloring! As long as all the crayons are out, and also if I can get him not to eat them!
