Addie's Stocking

Here is Addie's stocking that I made (a little late) but Santa still didn't forget her:)  Now she has a stocking to match all of ours...

First Bath Together

I thought why not?  Josh is in the middle of basketball season and I'm at home alone with the kids a lot...so I tried something new.  They both loved it! I know my "oops" sign is funny, but this was the best picture I got:)

Our Christmas Babies

Holiday Projects

Any excuse to get the cricut out!

These were for Addie and Colt's teachers (filled with goodies of course)

Oh and I had a little help.  Tried to do a lot during nap time, but he woke up...hence the nice hair do.

Colt's classmates.

I cut the tags...these were actually labeled "flags" but they look like Christmas trees too:)

And just like last year, I made the tags for all the presents, some I did letters and others I did Christmas trees.  But it was fun.  I broke down and got new fun wrapping paper.

That's all I'm doing:)

Growing up and adding on...

I'm going to start comparing family photos of every Thanksgiving since the kids have been born. It's fun to see how they are growing not only up but growing in numbers!

Addie 3 Months

Addie turned 3 months today.  I know this may sound weird but I feel like it's taken a long time to get to 3 months, maybe I feel like she's been around forever.  We could just eat this little girl up, she has ended up becoming SOO easy!  Exactly what we wanted, especially having a toddler taking up a lot of our time and attention.  She will lay on the floor on her playmat, bouncer or swing for a long time and be content as ever.  She does love to be talked to and will stare down anybody.  It's sweet.  She smiles easily and sometimes I think she can't smile as big as she wants when she gets excited...it's so sweet.

Her stats: (measured at home)

Weight - 14 lbs 6 oz
Height - 25 in

What she's doing now:

Eating 5 oz every three hours
Wearing size 2 diapers
Wearing 3 month clothes and some 6 months
Sleeping through the night (usually goes to bed around 8)
Sleeping less during the day
Loves her mobile, playmat, but mostly me, Josh or Colt playing with her
She doesn't talk too much only a little, she really likes to blow bubbles
Started drooling
Her hair has still not fallen out, and she continues to hold on to that ear hair!

She's doing great at daycare and one of her teachers told me yesterday that she was their easiest baby!  Yay!!  I go see her everyday at daycare and play and talk to her.  She gets so excited when I come see her.

She had her first laugh yesterday also.  She's been on the verge of laughing but hasn't "chuckled" yet, but she did yesterday.  I was pretending like I was giving her a zubbert on her belly and she thought it was pretty funny:) 
Here's our sweet girl at 3 months

With her Daddy

I love this picture, she's like "who has me now?"

Happy 3 month little girl!

Colt's Christmas Party

Colt has his Christmas party today.  It was so cute watching these little kids playing together.  As I have posted before, Colt's teacher is very creative and does sooo many cute things.  I think in all they made about 5 ornaments...not sure if I'll be keeping up with 5 ornaments every year...that's a little much for our Christmas tree.  All the parents brought a food item and we enjoyed talking and watching the kids.

This is what Colt had on for the first hour today...made by KK...so stinkin cute!

And the following is what he wore most of the day thanks to the potty training days...

This was a really good idea...this is the manger scene with Joseph, Mary and Jesus made out of marshmellows.  Apparently, according to the teacher, these will last for 5 years.  Ours only lasted for 1/2 a day due to little creatures called dogs finding them.  Haha.

What a cute little elf!

Sam worked on his ice cream just about the whole party.
