Oh yeah, November...

As most of you know, I sorta missed November... better late than never!! So, here is a quick snapshot of last month...oldest to newest!!

(11/12) This was his first toast, he looked that thing over for a good minute before he tasted it.

(11/13) We are so lovin' playing "peek-a-boo." Daddy was on the other side of the door, they played for a good 10 mins!

(11/13) Then Esten figured out he could hit the door into Daddy & the game became more fun!! He was cracking up laughing.

(11/19)Esten LOVES his bath duckies!! He has three, but this one is his favorite...you can see why. The ducks head doubles as a teething toy!

(11/19) The hunt is on... lovin' those gross motor skills!!

(11/19) Cutie!!

(11/20)Brayden was in a play @ school about the feast between the Pilgrims & Indians... Donovan asked him why he was a Pilgrim & not an Indian?? He's the one in the center wearing black jeans & white polo... traditional Pilgrim attire.

(11/24)Yes, I still swaddle him to sleep & even worse, I use the special swaddle blanket I got for Adria; but, he still looks cute in pink!!

(11/28) We had a small Thanksgiving dinner (just the 5 of us) on Friday because I worked Thursday... in our PJ's & with plastic plates; so fun:)

(11/28)Esten really digs his toast and he is already sooo good with the sippy cup;)

Yeah Me!!

Still waiting on the star, but it is decorated!! Brayden said he wants a star this year & not an Angel... off to Walmart I will go!! Adria & Brayden hung all the decorations and I didn't even go behind them & move everything around in traditional OCD style; I'm so proud!! Merry Christmas Everyone!!

We are now in the Christmas spirit!!

Today, Dec 13th, we all had a fun filled day of dancing to celebrate Christmas! We had two dance shows. The first one @ 12noon @ the Burleson High School gym & the 2nd was @ 5pm outside with wind gusts up to 30 mph. Here is Adria posing with the Christmas tree that they had a drawing for (Brayden is in the background).

Here are the girls dancing with their sweatshirts that we made... such a cute group!!
And apparently Donovan's lucky streak was passed on to Brayden; he won the Christmas tree that they were giving away!!

Santa was also at the event, yeah me!! So I get to be a good Mom this year because I had the kids picture taken with Santa!!

And at home with our newly won Christmas tree... I guess this year we get two trees!!
MERRY CHRISTMAS EVERYONE!! Now if I could just find the time to decorate the 9 foot monster of a tree in my living room before Christmas Eve...
