girls and tights

Abigail LOVES tights.  She asks to wear them every day, and when they are dirty she puts them in the washer so they get cleaned right away.  Sunday we had both the girls in tights and she was so excited.  She kept saying "tights like Lily", and would point out all the colors.  I LOVE having girls!!



 


Abigail thought Grayson needed a hairband, he didn't think so


Grayson was moving too fast, but you can kind of tell they are both holding a blanket and sucking thumbs :)

Thanksgiving

We had to learn this Thanksgiving that not everything goes the way you want it to.  Tuesday and Wednesday (or Monday, I can't remember) Lily threw up quite a bit.  Or spit up.  Either way it was a lot.  Both mornings I would go in and it was soaked in her hair, and all over the bed. Once it went all over me :(

 Then Wednesday morning Grayson woke up with a super goopy pink eye.  Uh oh.  He was in okay spirits, luckily, but pink eye is really contagious so we knew we were "doomed".
I took Grayson to the Doctor and got some antibiotic.  Shortly after Lily got pink eye.  Hers was bad enough it sealed her eye closed during the night.  And it swelled up a bit. Really, the kids were in pretty good spirits for not being in the best of health.  The next day we stayed at home.  Joe got a small Turkey breast from Walmart, and we had our meal at home. It was delicious.  We tried playing Wii fit, and we gave Grayson a hair cut.  He looks so old now!!  Even though it may not have been the day we wanted, it still was a great day and I have so much to be thankful for!











life is crazy

What do my kids do when I'm trying to get dinner ready?  Find the perfect playing spot ...
This little girl is sitting up SO well.  She hardly ever falls over, and LOVES to play with whatever is in front of her.  We gotta make sure all the little toys are out of read :)
Mr. Potato Head's glasses are a coveted item around our house
 Rockin' Reindeer (none of the kids know what reindeer are, but they didn't care!)
I can now bathe three kids at once, although Lily is quick to get in and out.  The other kids enjoy sliding down the back and it gets a little chaotic ...
