More fun sleeping pictures!!

I thought that I would share more pictures that I have taken during naptime. They still enjoy sleeping underneath their fitted sheet.....and at this time they will take a pillow inside with them.





I also took this picture because I thought that it was so sweet.......sleeping on the floor next to one another!!!

How many chocolate bears?

Today at lunch I caught Jordan counting and lining up his Teddy Grahams. He has been counting and saying his ABC's a lot lately. It used to be telling us every color that he saw....but, I guess he has moved on to other things. :)

Cute Santa site

Check out the cute videos that I made for the kids:

We have been talking to them about Santa to help them understand who he is......whenever they want to see Santa they ask to get on the computer and I will show them the videos. They love them!!!!

My Turn

It is the age of "MY TURN". Everything has to be done by both Kayla and Jordan. If one does something than the other has to take their turn. See example:

Also, they are obsessed now with seeing themselves on my camera. So.......they want me to take a picture or video of them and then they run behind me so that they can see themselves or as they say "MY". I think that it is funny that they don't say "that's me" yet.

"MY, MY, MY,"




Don't you just love the shirts? They say it all!!!!

I also apologize for the lovely bed-head that they are both sporting. :)

A Visit with our Cousins

Kayla and Jordan got to visit with their cousins Vada and Lauren a little over a week ago. Their Aunt Jessica drove in for a few hours and their Aunt Katie came by so that we could have some family time together.

Vada, Jordan, and Kayla had so much fun playing together with the strollers and catching balls. It is wonderful to see how well they are playing together now that Kayla and Jordan are getting older.

Once Katie and Lauren arrived we went to Applebee's for lunch and had a very challenging time. We sat in a round booth and all of the kids ended up next to each other with Jessica on one end and me on the other side of them. Katie, of course, was on the very end with Lauren. It was a lot of reaching and wiping up spills....mostly my kids (they are still not very good with the straw/cup concept).

It was great to spend some time with everyone and sadly I did not get a chance to take any pictures of Katie and Lauren.

Thanks for visiting us!!!!! You are welcome anytime!!!!


Here are some pics that I took of their "Mean faces". Isn't this silly?

Snow!!!!!!!!

I was surprised just as much as everyone else when we woke up on Sunday to see snow on the ground. We took it easy that morning and decided to go to the late church service. I had promised Kayla and Jordan that after lunch we could go outside and play in the snow. This was the first opportunity to wear all of our winter gear and it sure was fun putting it all on. :)

The snow was very wet and perfect to make snowmen. I tried to make a big snowball but then the kids decided they really weren't that interested.



They had more fun brushing all of the snow off of all of the outside things (Kayla) or making little "no-balls"......as Jordan puts it.



I gave him a snowball and told him to throw it at Daddy. Inside we went and he threw it at Jeromy....it was funny. That is what he deserved for not bundling up with us and playing outside :)

Silver Dollar City

I had the opportunity to spend some time with my Dad, Aunt Fay, sister Michelle, and brother-in-law Ben one weekend in November to celebrate my sister's birthday and Thanksgiving. It was a quick trip with a lot of shopping, eating, and having fun.

We went on the Branson Belle Showboat on Friday night....Saturday was all about the shopping.....until later that day when we went to Silver Dollar City and stayed until 11pm. On Sunday we again shopped for a bit before driving home.

Hopefully next time we can find a little more time to visit so that the whole family can go.
