Baby Buddies

Maggie loves her friend Elsie. As you will see in the video. She puts everything in her mouth right now, even her best bud's head.

So Full of Laughter

Hanging Out Upstairs

I will explain this picture in a moment, but first!


Hanging out upstairs is a rare occasion. Usually we have to give a warning to all those who dare to enter the kid zone. This month has been unique because of my sister. She was determined to help us get some order so the kids could clean on their own upstairs. After the massive clean up, we hung out in the toy room the rest of the week.







Oh yeah the picture....This is Annie saying, CHAAARRLIE you better clean that up!"

Every time Joe would sit on the ground, all the kids would migrate towards him.

Our Wedding Album

Annie asked to look at our "Wedding Bible" the other day. After a few seconds, I realized that she meant the photo album. As we looked through the pictures the kids had some cute comments.

Charlie: "You married now momma, yeah now you're a princess."

Annie, "Wow mom, that's a beeeaaautiful dress, (pause) How did you go potty?"

This Girl Can Make Some Noise

Maggie is totally into anyone who is 6 feet away right now. Let me explain. If daddy walks in the room, she shrieks. She likes it when he holds her, but she loves it when he stands from across the room and smiles at her. At church last night, there was a little girl spinning around in the narthex and every time Maggie would shriek. The kids made a game out of it this evening. They would leave the room, then sprint back and stop in front of Maggie. As soon as they were in viewing distance, she let out her shriek to show she could see them. Watch below:

Christmas at Grandmama's House

We spent Friday evening with grandmama for her special Christmas festivities of a delicious chicken dinner, Dominic the Donkey, and present opening. Annie and Charlie looked so adorable in their pajamas grom grandmama.

Swings

ALL 3 kids love the swing set John built for them for Christmas. They've been able to play on it everyday since Christmas. For all my friends in Ohio, I know that this is a strange concept. Swings in December? But yes it has been in the 60's and 70's here.

I'm Going

Here is Charlie putting on his shoes. Let me give you some background. We cannot get Charlie to put on his shoes ever, even to go outside to play on the swings which he loves. Here you will see a video that motivates Charlie enough to put on his socks and shoes all by himself.




It was a very fun visit from Uncle Joe, Aunt Angela, and Thomas. We were all sad to see them leave, but Charlie especially.
