Christmas is over :(

Christmas is officially over. We had a wonderful Holiday Season, kids had a blast on Christmas Eve (Well maybe only Madi, Carson did not nap all day so was a grump). Took me an entire day to clean up the presents and put them away. If I never have to unwrap another toy we will be happy. They package them so difficult to open. Madison's favorite toys are her new digital camera, her new kitchen, shopping cart and a new tea set. Carson loves everything he got. Loves his tool bench, dance tower and big truck full of blocks. It was a Merry Christmas, we are starting to save for next year.

Matching!!


We have matching aprons. Thank you aunt sandy for sewing us matching aprons. We will use them often. madison loves her new apron and was especially fond when she saw that Mommy had one that was the same. I am sure we will make a lot of fun stuff together in the kitchen in our aprons. Maybe next year for Father's Day we will make ones for Daddy and Carson. Don't want them to feel left out.

Too Pretty


We got all dressed up to go to our Aunt Kristi and Aunt Jo's baby showers. We had so much fun visiting with all our family and friends. I look at this picture and I see a grown up little girl. Where did my baby girl go? She is becoming such a cute kid! I look forward to all the many big kid adventures ahead of us.

Christmas Cookies




Madison was so happy to be able to pick out and make cookies all by herself (without any messes) We bought the nestle ready to bake cookies and she put them on the cookie sheet all by herself. She was so proud of herself, it sure was cute. Mommy is enjoying her time with her kids a thome.

We're having another baby

It is official, I went to the doctor today and we have a due date. We are expecting our bundle of joy July 28, 2009. We weren't trying to have another but will gladly take what the lord has trusted us with. Carson will be 22 months and Madison will be 3 1/2. We are starting to get excited and accept that our family is growing once again.

Where has an entire year gone?




an entire year has passes and seems so fast. I thought I would post some pics from Uncle Greg's last year and again this year. My kids are growing so fast. Where did the year go?

Vacation has officially started.

I am officially on my three week vacation and am loving every minute of it. I get to be home with my two precious children that I love so much. Let's see what is on the to do list for this week:
  • Go See Santa
  • Bake Christmas Cookies
  • Wrap presents
  • spend time with family
  • Go to Color-me-mine to paint something for Mommy for Christmas

We have a lot to do and although we haven't gotten much done my kids are so happy to be home and to be able to play with their toys all day long. I am so grateful to be home but honestly I feel like all I do all day long is laundry and clean house. This is our fifth day home and I haven't felt like I can rest yet. Three weeks will go fast but I cherish these few weeks I have with my kids before I have to go back to work.
