5 months

Little man that's right its your 5 month birthday today . You may kill me for taking these pictures of you someday ,but I will take my chances . I took pictures of you in a rocking Santa suit Grandma Rosie found for you . I hope each month to capture a picture of you that I can tell what the season was and time of year . So this seemed most fitting as it is so close to Christmas .



your update for this month .
-you are a card love to laugh
-love your morning cereal
-can hold your own morning bottle after cereal
-have cute dimples like your dad that I can see more now that you are smiling often
-enjoy the exersaucer
-have had prune apple juice for the obvious reasons
-not often grumpy but when you are its for a good reason
-no teeth yet

Salty & Sweet

A simple and quick holiday treat . Rolos ,pretzels pecans or M&M's and a drizzle of white chocolate.YUMMO !

Holiday Photos

I must say you can dress us all up and take us out .
We look damn good if I must say so myself

And what is the chance to have a almost two year old and almost 4 year old along with a 4 month old and get everyone looking at the camera to get this group shot by self timer . Not bad at all !

HAPPY HOLIDAYS from our family to yours .

Santa Rocks

PAPA got the kids some holiday shirts this one was Addys . Post other two kidlets real soon as they suit them perfectly .

Tree Time

I love decorating the tree as do the girls and they are pretty good at it too . They tried spacing them out and making sure each one has the "perfect "spot just in case Santa sees it Addy would say .After school was done and the little kids had needles we pretty much spend the rest of day off and on decorating and redecorating the tree . Just a simple down day .

Busy

Started this week off busy . We headed out with the kids to Brandon to pick up our tree and suppose to get Santa pictures but we did not check on it prior and there was no Santa on Tuesday in Brandon , so the kids were told that he was sick . We went to our fave tree lot to pick up our tree and they did not have 12-13 foot tree for us as they did last year , so we had to settle with a 8-9 footer .What do you do ??This was not our day .
So we stopped in to pick up our fave drinks at Starbucks .Customer service is always Excellent here .The girls were really wanting chocolate milk which they don't have in cartoons there ,but the man behind the counter said no problem he easily good whip up to small chocolate milks .I enjoyed our drive home with my Starbucks in hand and a few good Christmas magazines too . A added treat was three sleeping children .Always a bonus .

I managed to get a photo of myself with the girls before we left in the morning that rarely happens .(me getting in front of the camera )Didn't turn out that bad either .

Grandmas are awesome

The girls stayed with my mom and dad while we were gone for the weekend.They made these crafty projects while there. Addy also came back home singing away Jingle bells and We wish you a Merry Christmas too . Thanks to Ma and Pa for watching the girls they had a blast .

First Santa Visit

The hubby , little man and I got a weekend away to Minneapolis this weekend . Our little man had his first experience with Santa .Santa apparently was staying at our hotel and visiting the kids that morning at breakfast he was pretty much wrapping it up and had time for one more visit with our little man.This Santa was mighty good I tell you !!!He wrapped Vann up in his coat and was talking to him and cuddled right up with while I snapped away with my camera.
