All I want for Christmas...

All I want for Christmas is my chubbikins Ty!! He is so round and plump and delicious. He reminds me ALOT of Hunter, when he was this age. Ty is a very happy baby. I love his little round head, which sits on his shoulders. I have to make sure I tip his head back to wash the rolls in his neck! I cannot believe that he is almost 5 months old.




Making tortilla snowflakes. We were a little sprinkle happy.



Homemade Christmas decorations, ready to paint. If we were to hang Hunter & Jacksons hands on the Christmas Tree, the tree would probably tip over because they are heavy!

We supported our local Candy Cane Parade. Our neighbor Stephen marched with his middle school band, he is quite the drummer.



We celebrated my 34th Birthday by grabbing a bite to eat & watching Arthur Christmas in 3D. After the movie we enjoyed a homemade ice cream cake my friend Janeece had made, it was delicious!

Grateful

Ty & I flew to Utah a couple of weeks ago. It was quite refreshing. Ted played Mr. Mom Friday-Tuesday. He said there was a short window when he thought, "Hey, I could do this." Then that short window ended. I arrived home to roses, balloons, cards & sparkling cider. He must have really missed me.



Do not be deceived by this face! You should have seen Brayden trying to be helpful by rolling the dough into balls, rolling them in sugar & helping unwrap the hershey kisses. He doesn't appreciate when I try to help him, he really is Mr. Independent.:)


"Hello Mr. Turkey how are you? Hello Mr. Turkey how are you? With a gobble, gobble, gobble and a wobble, wobble, wobble. Hello Mr. Turkey how are you?" We loved Jacksons Thanksgiving Feast Performance at Stepping Stones Preschool. He was so excited to be an Indian, the morning of he told me he was getting his face painted with war paint. After the Feast I told him that his war paint looked so cool. He then looked upset and told me that it wasn't war paint after all. That is was just his teachers lipstick!

Halloween Festivities Part II

Trunk or Treat

Recent happenings...

Guess what? I dropped my camera yesterday, during the spooky sprint. I was very sad, but once I get looking at my pictures, they are pretty shabby. I was able to replace my camera at Costco & am quite excited about it. Those pics coming soon.

A Day at the Farm

Brayden's speech therapy program had a day at the COS (the local college) agricultural farm. Those little piglets were so cute. We were able to sample their frozen yogurt, each boy received a pretty sweet coloring book & an added bonus...Ty slept the entire time.:)




A little Wii sports competition. It was Dad & Brayden's turn at baseball. Believe it or not, Brayden actually hit the ball a couple of times & he has a pretty mean pitching arm!

6 weeks old

This picture was taken at 10 days old, but I cannot believe it has already been 6 weeks! Our theme right now is to "enjoy." To enjoy this sweet little newborn. Maybe it was Jackson who was extremely colicky, the theme back then was to "survive." :)
Ted just read this and he said if he was picking a theme & writing this post he would say, "Axel Rose said it best...Welcome to the Jungle." :)
