Tooth #2

When Isaac was opening up his presents last night, I was paying no attention to Emilee until she yelled "I pulled it out!" I looked at her and she was holding a bloody tissue in her mouth but she had a huge grin on her face. She had pulled out her other bottom tooth. If you know Emilee then you understand that I was in shock that she would pull her own tooth out! I have been telling her since the other one came out that it wouldn't take much to get it out and obviously mom was right once again! I wish she wasn't scared to go to the dentist because she needs the other two bottom ones out so her new teeth move forward. If you look close in the picture, you can see the new ones growing in behind the other ones. McKenna scared her when she said that the dentist was going to pull them out. Yes, he needs to, but don't tell Emilee that. That makes my job of getting her to go even harder!!

Happy 4th Birthday Isaac!

My little boy is now 4! I wish I had pictures from when he was born to put up here but I can't find the CD my husband put them on. :( Oh well. Isaac has been really excited about his birthday for a couple of weeks. If anyone tried to tell him he was going to be anything but 4 he would get mad and tell them "NO! 4!". He requested his favorite foods for breakfast, they are fried eggs and sausage. He ate 4 sausages but didn't eat the eggs. That is really weird. And for dinner he wanted mac and cheese and hot dogs! At least it was easy, even if no one else wanted it! He got to go out and play in the snow with Nana, Papa, and Ginger (I finally found his snow boots I have been looking for for weeks!) and that was a highlight of the day! He told me he threw a snowball at Nana!Yay! A new toy that he will sit and play for hours! And it's okay because it is educational!! Double Yay! He has a Leapster but I think he is getting bored with it. Now he has a V-Smile Pocket. We already have a V-Smile so we already had a ton of games for it and I got it on sale the day after Thanksgiving! Triple Yay!!
He loves new clothes! He must take after his mom!

Yes, he is a mess. This is after breakfast but before I got him cleaned up.

Eating the sausage mom made for breakfast! I don't know how many he has in his mouth!

Does It Get Any Cuter!?!

Logan wore the cutest outfit to church last week! It actually used to be Isaac's but Isaac never would wear the hat. Logan loves hats! He did not want his picture taken, however! Usually he hams it up for the camera but not on this particular day. He ran into the corner and tried to hide. Oh well, that made the pics cuter if you ask me!

I finally posted!

Okay. So my excuse for not posting for a whole month is that life gets crazy sometimes! Okay, so some of the time I was just didn't want to wait for the pics to load onto blogger because sometimes that takes a while. Anyway, I am caught up now so there ya go!!

Decorating the Christmas Tree

We usually put up the Christmas tree the day after Thanksgiving but I was lazy this year and we didn't get it up until today. Now the kids will quit bugging me about putting it up. Yay! I can't say it is gorgeous, but it is up. I still need to go in and do some redecorating from Logan putting all of his ornaments in one spot but it is up. So, the moral of the story is, our Christmas tree is up!

Happy Thanksgiving!

Thanksgiving at Nathan's Mom and Dad's house!Isaac was excited to eat!
Kenna and Lucas. Lucas' hat is... uuummmm.... I don't know what to say about Lucas' hat.

The men! Steve wanted to deep fry a turkey this year so here is Steve doing all the work with the other guys supervising.

Finally!

Emilee has had 2 loose teeth for months now but she won't let us near them to pull them out. Well, she came home from school last Monday, and one of them had fallen out!! YAY!! She finally lost her first tooth and she is almost 7! It is about time! The other front bottom one is hanging on precariously!

Another Cool Do!

Nathan and McKenna sang in church last Sunday. They did an awesome job! McKenna wanted a cute hairdo for the occasion and she has been asking me for a heart in her hair for a while now so I decided that it was a good day to try for it. I think it turned out pretty cute!

Potty Training

Okay. So, we decided to begin the potty training process with Logan a couple of weeks ago. It is going very slow. He goes in the potty when he wants to but not consistently. I guess he is barely two so I shouldn't have any expectations but it would be nice not to have to change diapers anymore. If anyone has any suggestions on how to make it easier they would be appreciated. You would think I would be an expert by now but that is not the case.

Happy Halloween!

Happy Halloween everyone! I hope your kids got lots of candy, and they eat it all tomorrow and are on a sugar high for 4 or 5 days! Just kidding. I just think my kids will be! I may have to ration the candy! I usually do.

McKenna is supposed to be Sharpay from High School Musical, but I think she looks more like Hannah Montana. It's funny because she hates Hannah Montana!!
