Happy Birthday Sweet Kiddoes

at 04/27/10 2:48PM

It's been birthday season around our place lately! Abby turned 4 last month and then we celebrated Joel's 1st birthday this past weekend. The time flies by so quickly! Abby had her first "real" birthday party (meaning, besides just family) and we had a fun family shindig for little Joel. They both seemed to enjoy their celebrations. Here are a few high-lights:

Getting Ready for Christmas

at 12/09/09 3:42PM

I love December! I so enjoy all the Christmas carols and the fun of shopping for everyone, picking out things I hope they'll love. It actually snowed here in Houston! That was an amazing treat for us. Seeing my kiddoes in fuzzy PJs and watching Christmas movies on the weekends with the fam. Memory making moments!

I love your pictures. The kids are just precious. Hanging out watching xmas movies is the best. Merry Christmas.

So sweet! If you want more snow, come up here! We have 80% chance of snow tonight and our high tomorrow is a whopping 11!!
HOpe you and your sweet family have a wonderful holiday! Sounds like you are off to a great start!!!

Happy October!

What a fun month we've had! Joel learned how to sit last week and got his first 2 teeth. Abby has been delighting us with her vivid imagination. On Halloween morning, she woke up with a very friendly imaginary monster named Monty. He slept in her book shelf and was black & white with blue eyes. We're glad he was friendly! She wanted to be a princess...again...this year. Joel was Cousin It 1st for the adult Halloween party and a lion for the kids' party. Hard to believe November is already here. I'm looking forward to our extra hour of sleep tonight. Now, if someone could just tell Joel about sleeping in that extra hour!

I love their smiles!!! Such happy kiddos! Can't wait to see them!

by chispa at 10/31/09 8:01PM
You have a beautiful family! I love all of your costumes too...so cute! :) Miss you all!

by txwhittlec at 10/31/09 8:26PM

by scline at 11/02/09 10:03AM
Beautiful kiddos! I can't believe Joel is old enough to sit up already! Time flies!!

by scrappyhappymama at 11/02/09 3:20PM

I have a ticket for Mary Poppins this weekend - Sat matinee. $64. Would you like it? Prime 1st balcony view. I saw it in Dallas and it was cool! I'm asking a few of my Houstonian friends :)

A conversation with my 3 year old

at 09/24/09 3:56PM *

“What’s this song about mommy?”

“Well, it’s called, ‘I Have Decided to Follow Jesus’. It means the people singing have decided to live their lives for Jesus, like Mommy and Daddy. When we were baptized we decided to live for Jesus.”

“I’m going to live for Jesus too. I’m going to be baptized too!”

“Yes, one day when you’re bigger.”

“Look, Mommy!” Stretching out on floor. “I’m bigger already! I’m ready to be baptized!”

“Well, I think you need to be a little bit older, Abby.”

“How old were you, Mommy, when you were baptized?”

“I was 11.”

“Yeah” (pause). “One day soon I’m going to be 16. Then I’ll be baptized.”

Treasuring all these things in my heart! These little conversations are so precious. Little seeds being sown…

Awww... Little Abby is so sweet :-) Did you get my message?

by littlebit at 09/24/09 4:15PM
awww! great profile pic! :)

by spike427 at 09/24/09 4:21PM
Sweet! I love your picture!

by sunshinebear at 09/24/09 6:00PM
Precious! We have had so many conversations like this with our oldest. I'm afraid he may really start pushing the subject too soon!!

by sjb at 09/24/09 6:19PM
Aww, my sweet Abby! Give her a hug from us! Give one to Joel also!

by chispa at 09/24/09 6:37PM
Very sweet!

How do 2 brown-eyes parents produce 2 blue-eyed children?

Getting so big... Joel is already 4 months, Wow!!

they are so sweet!! my husband has brown eyes but our baby has blue eyes (as does all my family!)
aren't exersaucers great??? :)

by spike427 at 08/31/09 4:13PM
Such a precious family!!

by sunshinebear at 08/31/09 4:17PM
:) I can't believe how big they are!

by laughing_eyes at 08/31/09 5:38PM
Very good pictures! I'm happy for you.

The blue/brown question is like our blood type question: How do two parents who are A+ have a son who is O+ ?

by anne at 08/31/09 6:17PM
Very complicated answer about the eye thing. Eyes are weird. I won't get into it, because it's boring.

Ken has brown, I have green, and all three of our children have blue.

by kaceyatthebat at 08/31/09 7:27PM
Lovely pictures! Looks like everyone's doing so well!

by beckyd at 08/31/09 8:21PM
recessive traits are great aren't they :)

by sparker at 08/31/09 9:56PM
Well, it happened with us and my Mom having brown eyes. So funny! Cute family pic and your kids are so adorable! Love the Bumbo! :)

by txwhittlec at 08/31/09 10:10PM
Yay! Pictures! You know I think I saw a little bit of Aaron in a couple of Joel's expressions....hmmmm.... :)
