Megan's bedtime stories


Tuesday night was Meg's night to stay up alone with Brian and I and she wanted to tell stories. Mind you, not be told, but TELL them. She always tells great stories! She told us one about a beautiful princess (that looks like mommy with pretty red hair- what a sweetie!), brownies, ice skates, waterfalls, and her daddy- the prince saving her. She has a great imagination- must be all the "coffee" she drinks! Then Megan said "It's late, can I go to bed now?" and then her "superhero" flew her to bed, where we tucked her in soundly and kissed her goodnight.

My how time flies


Let me tell you- the days are LONG, but the years are sooo short! Holly is 2! I can not believe she is 2! She totally acts like it!!! My Holly Jolly was promoted to the 2 year old room at church, and it kind of made me sad. I actually thoht I need another baby- then I realized Jenna was still in the nursery, so Brian can relax! LOL! We didn't do much for her b-day- we'll party over the summer. My brother feels bad for her, but we are not forgetting her b-day, just waiting till June to celebrate it! Holly is a fiesty little girl. I told her she is now responsible for her actions- her grace period is OVER!!! I think she is testing me to see if I will correct her when she acts up or let her get away with it! Here is happy Holly's 2 year old pic.

Jenna


Here is Jenna's 9 month old picture. My tiny baby is getting old! She gets all over the place now. She is affectionatelly known as trouble. She is a precious joy, loves to be held, and smiles at EVERYONE! She says dog, mama, dada, and Hi (twice).

As you can see, I have lots of scrapbooking to do!





























Christmas!

Christmas was GREAT!!! We celebrated Jenna's first Christmas, Holly's 2nd b-day, and Jesus's birthday! It was a success. We had some friends over for Christmas day and sang happy birthday to Jesus, played games, and celebrated. The kids each got their Christmas ornaments after finding the pickle on the Christmas tree. Mark got a Batman ornament, Meg got Princess Aurora holding a crown, Holly got a Tinkerbell ornament called "A little bit of Tink!", and Jenna got a Superbaby ornament and a baby's first Christmas ornament. I really love getting each chikd their own ornament each year, they really are personal and the kids love them too! It's a fun gift to begin the Christmas season.

Thanksgiving

So, Thanksgiving was great! We went to Grandma G's and had a great time. We had NO luck doing our black friday shopping, I mean NO LUCK! It was horrible!

Okay, okay, okay

So my dear friend told me I need to update my blog, so here it goes. I will try my best not to be a slacker and regulary update. I hope this will make you happy...
