Poor, sick Tristan!

Poor Tristan has the stomach flu. He is lethargic and can't keep anything down. He is so little that he does not understand what is going on. Feel better soon buddy!

What happens when you sit on an empty box? You fall in of course. LOL!

Such a happy girl!

Elizabeth is such a happy girl! She smiles all the time now. So pretty!

Her first time in the bumbo seat...she liked it but didn't love it. Hopefully it will grow on her.

January snow fun...

Oh how they love the snow! We still have snow from December in the yard. Emilia picks snow up and yells "NOBALL!" and then throws it. Thanks Oma! :)

"Help, I've fallen and I can't get up!"

Our awesome kids!

Aren't they cute?!

Awww...sisterly love!

What a cheesy smile!

Tristan tackled daddy.

Joker the "referee."

Emilia getting in on the tackling too!

It's been a while...

Hi everyone! It has been a while since I posted anything on here. I had a lot of catching up to do. Have fun looking at the overload. I will have more tomorrow as well! (Hopefully!)

Emilia's 3rd birthday party...

What a great party! Emilia wanted Mickey Mouse Clubhouse as the theme. We had the kids enter through the clubhouse doors to get to the clubhouse party on the other side.

Happy Birthday!

Emilia picks out a prize while we play some party games.

"Sleeping Giant" game. Steve pretended to be asleep while the kids tried to sneak a toy away from him. He would sit up and growl at them if they got too close.

Hanah, Rory, Payton, and Todd watch as some of the kids get scared by the giant.

The rubber duck game. The kids picked a duck and got as many prizes as the number on the bottom.
