Recent Pictures

Carter asks me all the time to take his picture with Charlotte.  The boys really play with her a lot now.  They are probably annoying her just as much as she's enjoying it, but they chase her around the house and give her lots of hugs.  They also give her way too many treats!

A few weeks ago we went to a birthday party for Andre at Monkey's Treehouse.  The party was Mickey Mouse themed and Mickey Mouse even showed up!

The boys loved the cookies.

I had to grab a picture of Carter dressed up like a baker.  He thought it was really cool :)

Another day when speech interfered with a nap (I was so jealous and wanted to trade places with him!) ...

Two weeks before Christmas was "K" week in Carter's class.  For show-and-tell he wanted to show the kangaroos in his Australian-version of The Twelves Days of Christmas.  "On the fifth day of Christmas my true love game to me, five kan-ga-roos."

Last week the kids got to bring in anything related to Christmas.  Carter brought in this Santa that he's had to sleep with every night since we pulled out our Christmas decorations.

We went for a walk on Sunday and I let Carter hold Charlotte for the first time every.  I'm usually scared she's going to pull him down or he's going to let go of her.  But Charlotte had her prong collar on and didn't seem crazy so we tried it.  And Carter walked her for at least half a mile.  He was so proud!

We had some nasty storms come through our area on Saturday evening after we put the kids to bed but we were still up.  When the EAS tried to broadcast a tornado warning, it screwed up Comcast and we lost both our internet and cable for the next 3 hours.  Perfect.  Now we didn't have a radar to watch.  Luckily Brian was able to rig up a solution to pick up one local channel.

Rylan is starting to put together smaller Lego sets without a ton of assistance.

Rylan helped me with the Whirley Popcorn popper the other day ...
