Baby....it's COLD OUTSIDE!!!

Did I mention that this little girl is already over 3 months old (14 weeks)!!!!!??? Love her so much and could not imagine life without her!!!! Pictures taken from Mama's lap, her only place for smiles these days =).....

Making Snowflakes!!!

I have gone ALL out, even more than my usual 7 trees this year for Christmas! I will post pictures soon of all the decor, but I wanted to post on a fun project we did this week.

I am decorating my breakfast nook bay window this year for a fun party (pictures will come next week after the event =)), so I wanted the kids to make snowflakes for the windows!! They loved it and had sooooo much fun!! Owen has been under the weather, but this was a good pick me up one day. I am sure you remember when you were in school and you used to cut out snowflakes!! Well I folded the paper and they went crazy cutting =)!! They actually did a great job!! Aunt Nicole came over too and helped out. I will show you the final result in my Christmas Decor post, but here are some cute pictures of my little snowflake makers...

We are NUTS about Christmas time around here!! Today Claire has a field trip to see the Nutcracker. She asked if she could wear a scarf like Mama =)!! She is such a BIG girl!!!

Turkey Day

Hey yall!!! Sorry I have not been around this week, Owen has been sick =(!! He is better now, but he got what Claire had on Thanksgiving day. Yes, Claire was sick on Thanksgiving. So Shane stayed home with her all day and I ran the little ones to each Thanksgiving dinner. I swear kids have the WORST timing!!! We were nervous that she would be sick for her party 2 days later, but it was only 24 hours. Here are some cute pictures from our Thanksgiving this year!

Owen's Prayer

My sweet Owen is growing up so fast!! He is becoming such a big boy and cracking us up all the time...


Yesterday evening, Shane and Owen were in the car after Shane came and got him (saved him) from Claire's dance class. Owen told his daddy, "I want to pray.". Shane says, "Ok, say your prayer.". Let me preface, Owen's praying before consisted of quiet mumbling and then a loud AMEN at the end....not yesterday...


"Thank you Jesus for Oscar, Cooper...golf, football, and baseball...AMEN!"


Thank you Jesus for this hilarious little boy!!! Shane and I have not quit laughing since he told me!!!

Have a great day!!!
