Beginning of December

Here are some pics from beginning of December....I promised myself I would do a better job at blogging after the new year. I'm still trying to do that. I'm going to catch up and then really will be better :)


So excited to get the tree up!
























Everyone playing Uno!

November

November came and went like a flash. We have so many things to be thankful for this year. Beautiful, healthy children, good health ourselves, many happy moments and countless other blessings we are grateful for. We were so lucky to be able to spend Thanksgiving down in the Springs with Nee, Pop, Ann, Tom, Ben, Catherine & David. It was a great time!! Thank you for hosting us, Nee & Pop :)


Here are a few highlights of the month (so sorry there are a lot of pics!):



Hailey Bailey Boo has graduated to sitting in her high chair. Such a big girl!


Such fun bath times....Hailey is always lounging somehow and loves the water just like Jackson!



Jackson talked Alex into getting on his PlasmaCar and took him for a ride around the kitchen. He learned quickly that he can't go as fast with someone on the back!



Another storm; another fun time shoveling :)




It was coming down!


Fun time sledding :)



And making snow angels!





Hailey chilling inside....she doesn't know what snow is all about yet---next year :)



Hey!



Daddy's little girl for sure!



Hailey enjoys reading the WSJ with Alex...it's very interesting :)



Still loves to stick her tongue out!



Such a happy baby!




I don't let Mommy take too many pictures of me any more.



Fun in the leaves!


Helping Mommy do laundry :)



Jackson likes Hailey to tackle him (she likes it too!). There will come a day when she might be tackling him more than he wants her to :)



My shy pose :)




Yippee!!


My precious babies :)


Not really into getting their picture taken right now......


Hey!


Miss Hailey loving food :)



Cutie pie!


Jackson loves to play hockey. We usually play in our basement but here he is practicing outside!



Whatchu talkin' about, Willis?


My First Christmas hat was a bit too small even a month before Christmas!






Still not enough hair for bows, and can't keep headbands on for long :) We try every now and then!



Love this smile :) I'm so lucky to see it all day, every day!



Waiting for Santa.


Going into Santa's Village




Love this outfit. Thank you, Debbie!!



Overall a successful visit to Santa! Hailey wasn't so sure about things after I put her on his lap, but I only left her there for a few seconds and didn't even try to get her to smile. Jackson really liked seeing Santa and talked to him for a bit :)

Fall Festival, Pumpkin Patch & Halloween

October ended just as fun as it began!



Jackson trying on Hailey's pumpkin hat.



Homestead Elementary School's Fall Festival
Jackson waited in a very long line to try to dunk a teacher :)



Riding on the hayride.





It was a great ride!




The girls all matchy-matchy :)




Our little pumpkin!




Visiting the pumpkin patch....Jackson is so strong to hold Hailey :)



Cheese!



Just hanging out in some pumpkins!




It's pumpkin time! Jackson decided to paint the pumpkins this year.





Hey!






Happy Halloween!
















It was a super fun Halloween!!
