Pics

I've got tons of pictures on my computer that i want to put up, so when i don't have anything to blog about I'll just post some cute pics.
Sierra and Tanner sharing a soda. So adorable.
These pics of the kids were so cute. For our Christmas card I wanted to put One picture of the kids with piper and than one of each of them alone, but they would only let me have 2 pictures total. I absolutely love the pictures of Reece with his hands in his pockets. As soon as i put pants on him he's asking about his pockets, these days.

Group Bath

While Nichole and the boys were visiting last weekend, we gave all 4 kiddos a bath at the same time. Luckily our tub is pretty good sized and they had plenty of room. I remember taking baths with my siblings and cousins growing up, it always made bath time more fun to have someone to play with. We were only going to do 2 at a time, but when we put Sierra and Tanner in they right next to each other and weren't even taking up half of the tub so we decided to put the little boys in too. I love capturing cute memories like this in pictures.

Reece, Carter, Tanner, Sierra.
Aren't they all so cute.

Update

So , I feel like I've been incredibly busy over the past few weeks. I haven't felt like blogging at all, and I have had so much to blog about that, I think, I got overwhelmed with all of it.I want to do a Christmas post and add a bit of everything else and call it good. Then I can start new.


We had a great Christmas over at Dave's parents house this year. All but 2 of Dave's siblings were there and only one cousin was missing. It was quite a house full, but it was so fun to party on Christmas Eve and to have all of the kids wake up and have Christmas morning together. Reece was actually running a fever for the 3 days we were there so he was pretty grumpy, but we tried to keep his fever down as much as we could and tried to keep his mood up as much as possible. Sierra loved playing with her big girl cousins who are also very much into Littlest Pet Shop's, so they got along great.

When the kids came down on Christmas morning Reece wasn't interested in the gifts at all. He went right for the Guitar.

This is Sierra's Hulk face.



Our little family on Christmas Eve.

After all of the Christmas excitement was over, we came home and actually had guests at our house for 2 nights. My sister in law, Nichole and her 2 boys came over just to hang out while my brother was out of town. It was a lot of fun and the kids played together so well. It was actually pretty relaxing for having company over, sometimes that can be a bit stressful, but it wasn't.


For New Years we went to my brother's house and hung out with most of my family. My mom had come to town so it was fun to visit with her for a while too. We mostly hung out and played games and ate snacks, of course we didn't get to bed until almost 2 in the morning, but ti was a great time, too bad I didn't take any pictures.
We just had Christmas with Dad today so i dont have those pictures on my computer yet, but hopefully I'll be able to post some in the next few days. I'm hoping to get back to a somewhat regular blogging routine. At least a few times a week.

Long Time

I have not felt like blogging at all lately, I've just been too busy with birthdays and Thanksgiving and now preparations for Christmas. I am pretty excited for Christmas this year, we're finally getting the kiddos their bunk beds and I can't wait. We also get to pick out some twin size bedding so that'll be really fun. I got some really cute pictures of the kids the other day, Reece absolutely loves his cowboy boots and he'd gotten them on all by himself and was so proud. He always says "I did it" when he manges to get his boots on by himself and it comes out so cute. I love how he looks with just his diaper and boot on, and his boots are on the wrong feet too so that makes it even cuter.

He's making one of his silly faces in this picture, I love it.
Muscles.
Marching through the kitchen, I couldn't really get him to hold still for a picture that day.
My little monkey.
CHEEEEESE!!!

Could Somebody Tell Me Who This Is?

I don't recognize this child at all. Reece looks like a boy in this picture, not a baby. I'm not ready to admit that he's growing up, he still feels like such a baby when I hold him in my arms, but when I look at this picture I don't see a baby at all. How cute are those little boxer briefs, I love how they go all the way down to his knees. And in case you were wondering, NO, he's not potty trained, he's barely even trying yet and I'm not ready to really push. Actually about 5 minutes after I took this picture he pooped in those adorable little unders. I guess eventually I'll have to accept that he's going to grow up, but I don't think I'm ready quite yet.

Sierra's First (Official) Haircut

Sierra had her first official haircut on Sunday. I say official because some may remember our little mishap a few months ago. All I did was let them trim it, she still doesn't have much hair for a four year old so I didn't want to do anything drastic, but I'm hoping the trim will get things rolling and her hair will start to grow more now.
Before the cut.
Being perfectly still.
First snip.
She watched herself in the mirror the whole time, she didn't move a muscle.
End Result. You probably wouldn't be able to tell her hair was cut if i didn't say anything, which is exactly what I wanted. She kinda looks like a weirdo in this picture for some reason.
