Time Out!

So the blog is on a "time out" for right now.  I know some of you will miss it and I am sorry, but I have all my kidos pictures documented in our computer folders and although I enjoy sharing them, the fact is, sharing them is for everyone else (not us)....and frankly it takes a lot of time to do it.  My time for right now is gonna be more focused on "doing" these things with my family instead of sharing about them.  Who knows, there may be a post or so in the near future,or it may be awhile, but for now it's what has to be done...

Christmas Pictures

Tonight we decided to head over to Target and get a few family shots next to the huge ornaments they have out this time of year.  Of course, I envisioned the 4 of us in a fun/not posed/amazing shot, BUT the reality was 2 kidos so excited about the ornaments, and the pure joy of running on the grass, that Daddy couldn't even set up the tripod because he was just running after us (that is him running after us, after me running after them). So the below is what we got, which I have to say turned out not too bad (after some cropping and whatnot I have to add).  Not my envision...though with 2 kids, it never is...why am I still not getting this?! But, I got smiles of my two littles that I love, and even a few with me in it, so I will take it! 

Good job Daddy, sorry your smiley face isn't in any of these but thanks for capturing what you did!

1st Haircut!

Abigail had her 1st haircut tonight and she did great! Thank you Cool Cuts!

I love the style her hair has grown into naturally, so I had them just clean it up a bit, not a major change

Thanksgiving Dinner with us Four

Yummy Pumpkin Cheesecake

My new 3 crock pot! This made the dinner so easy with very little mess...two of my favorite things!

Yummy! Not so bad for my 1st solo adventure with cooking a turkey...

Trying to get us all in a picture...Abigail is on the floor, of course, because she didn't want to eat anything I cooked...

Momma with her loves (if I could only get us all doing a nice smile at once...)

My sweet girl!

Super Hero Sibs

This is an everyday occurrence in our house! 

There will be no evil-doing around here with these two on duty!

Funny story, the other day when I was off to work Abigail was a little fussy as I was leaving. Now usually she has no problem, they both LOVE Jen our babysitter! They are often in dress up/playtime madness well before I hit the door, but today she wasn't...so I text Jen about 5 minutes into my drive to check in.  I receive a text back "don't worry, she is fine, she is fighting evil villains as I text." Well, as long as everything was back to normal {smile}
