january catch up

We moved just a couple of miles away from our old house about 3 weeks ago.  Today we finally got everything set up with our cable and can get online. Here is a recap of what has been going on other than unpacking, setting up the house, Mommy feeding sister and changing diapers.

 Kids go in this cabinet, right? Don't worry GP, we are not allowed to do this anymore.

 Our first Friday family fun night at the new house shared with Kami and Poppy

 Brother fell asleep on the way home from a trip to Target with Daddy, and yes, he fell asleep in the middle of eating a veggie stick.

 The face that Brother makes all the time now.

 The face we prefer.

 I love sitting by Sister and singing and talking to her, even if she is asleep.

 I decided to try out the dry eraser markers on Brother's face. 

 These were Daddy's little people when he was a boy and now we get to play with them.  We had a race complete with spectators stands.

 Lots of hugs!

 Our first time in the new big bath!

 We like to pretend that we are the babies!

 Playing duck, duck, goose with our friend Mr. Mark.

Silly Mr. Potato head!

one month

We are finally back up and running with Internet access!  I have lots to update you on, but will start with these one month pictures of Sister (from 2 weeks ago). She continues to melt our hearts!

everyday we fall a little more in love with her

Sister is precious!  I say this almost daily when I look at her. Brother and I can play pretty rough together, but both of us have been SO gentle and sweet to our Sister. We love to watch her sleep and sing to her when she is awake.

 Teaching her about toy cars

 Brother sharing his new cars with her

 We really like to give her sweet kisses on the head

Sister getting her first bath- she did not mind it as much as I did!

 More kisses!

 I love holding her in my arms and snuggling.

She likes to sleep when I hold her.

Daddy with his 3 little blessings!

uncle charlie

Uncle Charlie found some very fun shirts for us for Christmas.

 Brother's shirt- "I learned it from my Uncle"

 Sister's shirt- "If you think I'm cute you should see my Uncle!"

We hope you come home to visit us again very soon, Uncle Charlie!

a great visit

GP, Aunt Corky, Gibby and Bella came to visit us and meet Sister the day after Christmas. Boy, did we have a great time playing together!

 Bella is a natural with babies!

 Daddy took the boys to play at one of our favorite places- Catch Air.  Gibby is one super fun cousin!

 We scored some snacks during story time!

GP with all 5 of his grandchildren. We miss you guys already!  Come back soon please!!

christmas day!

We woke up on Christmas morning (with wild hair!) to fun presents from Santa!

 Checking our what the big guy left us

 "This is the game I wanted!"

 Brother really liked these animals and kept roaring!

 Trying out the bowling game

 Next, we headed to Kami and Poppy's house.  Guess what?  Santa filled our stocking there too!

 Isn't sister precious in her Christmas pajamas?!

 Brother loves his Poppy!

 Next, we opened some presents.

 Mrs. N also made an awesome quilt for Daddy from all of his swim team t-shirts. We are so thankful for such a talented friend!

 We gave Poppy a remote control helicopter. We really enjoyed taking it outside for a test flight!

After a nap at home we headed back to K&P's house for a lovely Christmas dinner. We hope you and your family had a wonderful Christmas together too!
