Belated Chistmas and Happy New Year!

Yes, I know I've been on break from school, but that doesn't mean we haven't been very busy! So here's a quick update since Christmas. . .




On the 23rd Kalista got to perform her His Singers songs after church. The original date was cancelled due to the snow storm and cold weather. She did great and loved that her whole family and all her cousins got to see her. Check out the props they used for one song entitled "Blitzen Boogie"

















Isaac moved one step further from babyhood by having his cradle converted into a toddler bed. He stays in it pretty well and has only fallen out twice. . . So far so good. Now if we could just get rid of his binki (We tried a few days ago, more on that in another post). . .













Christmas Eve and Day were filled with lots of family, fun, and food. Both kids were really great, even with the long hours and no naps. Santa brought them a "castle bounce house with balls and sticks" (this is their standard response to this question). But I think these other pictures show their true favorites -- a LMax leapster for Kalista and a Pirate ship tent for Isaac complete with dress up clothes.












I hope everyone is having/had great Holiday Season. Happy New Year!

Actually the nap went okay - only cried for 30 minutes. It was the 50 min at bedtime then then the 1/2 hour at midnight that did me in. Good thing we didn't throw all of them away. . . I think one day he might just use them too hard and they may break. . .

Yeah, my husband had the camera Angie. No really good pics of your kids, sorry!
