Christmas 2012

We enjoyed a wonderful Holiday season with these three munchkins! They just had so much fun and LOVED opening presents; often asking for more please!!

Loving the new tractors from meme and poppy! Pretty much the only picture I got from family Christmas... 5 grandkids loving presents makes for craziness!

Counsins... Riley, Kelli, Clayton, Brekon, & Ellyot

Riley having fun with Auntie Kaily! 

Kelli was sick on Chistmas day. We thought she felt better when I came home from church with the boys in the morning so we ended up taking her, but later threw up at the lunch table. She enjoyed snuggling with her daddy.

For some reason the kids are into car washes. We make them for their trucks out of blankets, blocks, or whatever we can come up with. Well, they thought it was cool to make a car wash with presents for Jayda.

No nap=tired kiddos. The boys both fell asleep while eating supper!

About 6 weeks shy of turning 3! Really? 

New backpacks...

and new ornaments on the tree! 

Most important we celebrated Jesus' birthday. I really tried to talk with the kids about that this year, and by the end of all the parties hopefully they can remmeber that!

The last few weeks I feel like we've been staying home a bit more. We love to venture out and the trio loves to go away, but I am running out of things to do! I've been trying to do more crafts with them without my house being completely destroyed. They love to paint so I put paper across the kitchen table and let them go; it took up lots of time and they loved it!

Kelli and Riley ripped the play kitchen apart and were using it for their "potty's". Yes, they are probably ready to be trained but their mom isn't quite ready. We are gearing up to start after the holidays.

This past week we enjoyed making Christmas cookies with GG (great grandma) and my mom. A little hectic at times, but lots of fun!

Clayton's Root Canal

This past Monday we made a trip to the dentist for my buddy Clayton. He had a root canal done on an upper tooth that was damaged by falling through a baby gate last winter! When we got there they gave him some medicine to make him sleepy, we waited for half an hour and they they brought him back. He was pretty excited to sit in the big dentist chair again. They put some "gas" on his nose and away they went. Within a few minutes he was out cold and did great through the entire appointment. He was such a trooper!

Christmas Tree

As always we get our Christmas tree the weekend after Thanksgiving. The kids had a great time trying to find the 'perfect' one!

The best family pic we could get!

Trio with my parents.

Best part of all... everyone had a chance to help daddy cut it down!



november fun

The last few weeks we have enjoyed a new house going up next door! These boys love the big trucks already, they can hear them coming down the road and race to the window to see who can see them pull in first.

We had tons of fun painting at our friend Grayden and Sadler's house. The trio loves crafts! They especially like play-doh, stickers, and painting.

Enjoying a lazy afternoon with daddy. Yes, Riley is sleeping!! 

Such a triplet picture... all 3 doing something different! I LOVE pictures with the three of them together, but it's getting harder and harder to take ones that actually turn out! I finally asked them to do a funny face and this is what I got!

"LOOK MOM, we made a train!" I love the way 2 year olds think! They were so proud of themselves for coming up with this!
