Christmas at our house... part 2

tickle, tickle, giggle, giggle!!

It's a girl!

oh my word.

Christmas at our house...

Amanda totally wigged when she opened a present from her Uncle E and family.
I don't think anyone could have hoped for a better reaction! Thanks so much!

Samantha spent a lot of time being affectionate and cute as always!

We like to mix our superhero characters around here.

Oh no... Hayden has his own set of tools! Watch out!

Wishing you...

and yours a very Merry Christmas!

'Tis the Season

I could eat 'em

We recently attended the holiday concert at Amanda's school and let me tell you, it was quite a production. Those kids and that music teacher got themselves some talent. It was beautiful, fun and entertaining.



Earlier while we were waiting for the show to start I took a few shot of the little ones.









And then after the show I took this one of Amanda.



I could just eat them all. If it wasn't illegal and gross and totally wrong and all...

Florida

Florida has totally wimpified me. I have tons to do, but

"it's too cold outside! wahhh!!".

What's wrong with me. I used to shovel snow off the walkway out my front door, scrape ice off my windshield and throw caution to the wind driving 10 miles an hour through snow and ice.

It may have something to do with having to drag little ones along who suddenly have to go potty once the seat belt is on. Just a couple days ago it took us an hour to get out the door with enough warm clothes on everyone. And then I opened the van door, threw the kids in and shut the door quick so they wouldn't be cold. I tried to buckle Sammie in to her carseat with her huge bubble coat on...ummm no.  Took off the coat, buckled her in and then Hayden spilled his water bottle all over his car seat and pants (the only warm ones that fit him... nice!)

Unpack the kids.
Redress Hayden as best I can without making him look like a dork.

and back out to the van.

Where were we going anyway?
