Fancy Adlee

Just happened to look at this post again. Here is some pictures of.....what in the world was I writing?

Here is are some pictures of Fancy in her fancy dress with her fancy doll.



Here she is with her fancy pantless baby brother :)

Randomness

Here a few random pictures from our somewhat chaotic month.













I love Adlee's new picture pose... hand on the hip + lots of attitude + cute little smirk = Adlee (aka Fancy)

We + Coby

Happy Birthday to Coby!

Bowling

We took the kids bowling last week. They had a lot of fun, and they even finished all ten rounds (is that what you call it in bowling?). I think we will have to take them again soon.





Notice Adlee's tongue hanging out and her kick at the end. I think she is channeling her nanny!

Happy Birthday Joe!




Funny thing how all of the pictures I have of Joe is him laying around on the couch :)


Jenny, is laying the correct word for that sentence?

Cabin Fever

This freezing, cold, snowy, winter is getting lllllloooooooonnnnnnnnngggggggggg. We decided to brave it and take the kids to the park a couple nights ago. We went to feed the ducks and geese and they also got a little bit of time to play. The kids got some energy out and we all enjoyed the fresh air.





So, Hudson and Adlee don't mind the geese at all. My big four year old Porter is a bit of a chicken. He would not get close and actually spent most of his time attached to my leg or hiding behind a tree.

Fancy Adlee

Adlee loves Fancy Nancy right now. We borrowed some books and are reading them over and over. Today she dressed like Nancy.

Christmas 2010

We had a pretty good Christmas this year! Joe had to work on Christmas day so we woke Porter and Adlee up at 5am so that Joe could see them open their gifts. Joe went off to work and I had the joy of coercing them back to sleep. We were not quite sure but maybe if we went back to sleep Santa might come back again and leave more presents. It ends up that it doesn't work like that but thank goodness for Grandma and Grandpa and their sack of toys.
The kids got way to much... as always! I look at everything wondering how in the world we are going to fit one more thing in to our home and then the toys are magically absorbed into the chaos that is our life.

Here the kids on Christmas Eve. Look at Hudson's little grin..melt my heart!



5am is super early!
Adlee loves her doll and kitchen!
Adlee helps Hudson unwrap his toy!
Porter and his new bike!

Hudson loves his Rex dino!


The kids were in their very first Church Christmas program a couple weeks ago! Adlee and Porter both had songs to sing and a poem to recite.
Porter played with Adlee's hair, Adlee yelled stop several times very loudly, I was sure their was going to be a brawl before it was over.
Adlee was always a bit behind on the motions:)


The kids with Santa and no one is crying!
Look, it's Melvin our Christmas Elf! Melvin spends the month of December with us watching over the kids and then he reports back to Santa each night. Every morning Melvin is in a new spot in the house and the kids have a Melvin scavenger hunt each morning. We ♥♥♡♡♡ Melvin and we are sad to see him go back to his North Pole home. Only 334 days until he comes back!
I love our chalk door!
I love our stocking sign!
