Falling behind

It is more than fair to say that I have fallen behind with my blog this month. After the girls came home from Hawaii, I have been very wrapped up with them and their finals and life itself. So now that finals are over and we are starting to move into February I guess it is time for me to get my butt in gear and update. So here goes.

Paige and Abigail on vacation

Oh, have I mentioned that my angels got to go Hawaii with the rest of the family? No, well they did and are having a wonderful time. I have only heard from Paige so that means that Abigail is having a fabulous time...she only calls when bored and how can you be bored in HAWAII??? 85 degrees and beautiful! Paige has sent a couple of pic's from her new camera so I thought I would share them.

Jingle Bells

Abigail taught Isabella this song during Christmas break, we didn't know about it until now and so we took this video to share with everyone.

Monkey See Monkey Do

Playing dress up

Murse or Man bag

I can have my purse and drive my car!

Isabella has finally decided to try doing the whole dress up thing and has such a willing playmate in Jack, she can get him to do almost anything with her. Why else would he don a purse? Oh, that's right because its fun and functional. Heidi was able to snap a bunch of shots of these two, I just tried to pick the best ones.

One Christmas Photo

So we were more than a little lacking with the Christmas photos this year, in fact I think this is the only one we took. Jack sitting up at the table eating chips and salsa. What awful parents...well we will try to make up for it next year.

More Snow Pics

Merry Christmas!

We hope all of you have a wonderful Christmas with family, friends, loved ones or whom ever you choose to share your holiday with. We have been blessed with many things this year and are thankful for each and everyone of them. God Bless you and keep you safe.

Love

Kim, Heidi, Paige, Abigail, Isabella and Jack

Monday Morning Snow

Santa falling over in the front yard.

The squirrels and the birds haven't really been out since it started snowing. On the left is the squirrel feeder, both the platform and the lid are 5 inches deep in snow. Hope the squirrels are staying warm and dry.

We woke today to another good 8-12 inches of fresh snow. It is truly a winter wonderland at our home. Except for traveling to work and the store we are so happy to have some real winter weather and what looks like it will be a white christmas!!! I feel a little Bing Crosby coming on.

Baking Cookies with Mom

Jack is my little helper most of the time, and now that he has figured out to move the chairs around to get up to what he wants nothing is safe. However today was different, he and his sisters had been helping to measure, stir and pour.

Jack's first BIG booboo

Jack got his first real BooBoo this weekend! I had plugged the straightener in and put it in the bathroom sink, turned around to see what Isabella was doing and within a couple of minutes Jack was screaming. He had grabbed the cord and pulled it from the sink and grabbed it with his little hands. He burned his hand as seen above and then his thumb on the other hand. If this doesn't make me feel like a horrible mother I don't know what else could. He is doing just fine, doesn't even notice that they are there, Thank the Lord above!!!

Walk in the Snow!!

This past Saturday when it started snowing again, we took a little walk down to the school by our house. While the walk there was nice and quiet the trip back was filled with a screaming little boy. Isabella and I had a wonderful time and she was not ready to leave when Jack was, but as we all know the squeaky wheel....well you know. So when he was ready we had to go home. We had a nice walk in the snow no matter what the noise.
