"Santa...We've Been Very Good!"

The kids are so excited that Christmas is just six days away!! Anabelle's big item that she wants this year is a barbie house, and Brady's big item is the DSI XL. I think they are gonna be two very happy kids on Christmas morning! :) Can't wait to see their faces light up! :)

The B-E-S-T Babysitter EVER!!

We have the best babysitter ever! The kids love her so much and always have so much fun with her. Anabelle cried for quite awhile after we took the babysitter home that night. It is such a good feeling knowing that your kids are in good hands! :)

Anabelle made the babysitter's hair all pretty. :)

Time to Break the Wish Bone

This year Brady got the biggest side of the broken wish bone, but the way that they broke it was strange...it broke into four different pieces. :)

Mustache Man

Brady has made himself a fake mustache three of four different times now. I think he's gonna be a mustache man when he gets older....but he'll always be my baby! :)

Bunco!! FUN TIMES!!

NEVER a dull moment! :) Kudos to Krissy for getting this group going!! Some of the party themes we've had include Cinco De Mayo, Pajama Party, Ugly Christmas Sweater, Halloween Dress up...soooooo much fun!

Best costume ever Tiff! It MADE the night! LOL! Oh boy...the pictures!

A Day With Their Daddy

Jason had to take a day off of work in the middle of a bunch of overtime so he took Veteran's day off to spend the day with the kids. They had a great day together! They've been missing their daddy so much with how much he has been working. We are loving the 40 hour job that he is on now! YEAH!! :)

They took the jeep out to lunch to the Mexican restaurant where Brady loves to speak Spanish to the amigos that work there. They get a kick out of him!

These are the pictures that Jason texted me when they were out and about. They had a great time!

My Birthday

Jason and the kids made my birthday last month extra special....flowers, cake, and dinner! What more could a girl ask for. Couldn't have been any better of a day! :)

My Beautiful Babies

Off to get their Christmas pictures taken! :) Growing up so fast :(

Popcorn Ball Makin

After we got home from the pumpkin farm, we made popcorn balls. YUM!! They were sooooo good!!

Family Fun at the Pumpkin Farm

Last month, we took the kids to the pumpkin farm. The weather was perfect! We saw the farm animals, took a train ride, went throught the corn maze, the kids got their faces painted, enjoyed a funnel cake, and picked some little pumpkins and gourds. It was a great day!

Brady found our way out of the corn maze and was so excited when he got us to the end. VICTORY! :) When he realized, he found the end, he was so excited and the picture that I took is priceless!

Jeans!?!?

Anabelle doesn't like to wear jeans because she doesn't like how tight they feel. She only owns two pairs, so you can imagine how shocked I was when she got dressed for school one day and came out in jeans! I just had to take a picture! :) My girl likes to be comfy just like her momma!

A Day at the Zoo

This was our first time to the zoo this year, which is rare because we usually go many times in a year. Hopefully, we will go again before the year is over. Christmas time is supposed to be a great time to go...but it may be a little too chilly for me....brrrr. :)

This seal was so much fun to watch!

2010 - 1st Day of School

This post is a little late, but better late than never. This was the first day to school for the kids...Brady in Kindergarten and Belle in 1st Grade.

I went to their first parent teacher conferences a couple of weeks ago, and as expected, both kids are doing great! Anabelle is one of the best hand writers in her class and she is at the highest reading level in her class...level 16!! Our preemie baby is such a little go getter!! She makes us so proud!! You GO Girl!! :) Brady also had a great conference. His teacher said that Brady is very intelligent but laid back. He is on his own time. :) He knows everything that he should know and more! He goes around the classroom sounding out the words that are on the wall already! :) His teacher said that Brady just cracks him up and he doesn't know where he gets some of the stuff! LOL! That's our baby boy!! Never a dull moment with him around!! Our kids make us so very proud!!
