New family photo...finally

Well we finally got us all looking nice all at the same time enough to take some family photos. Here it is.

Christmas stockings

I finished Alexa's Christmas stocking and it went pretty fast. Scott and I have made each of us a stocking (as each kid came along) and I think this is the best one yet. And I think she likes it!

It snowed for the first time this winter. already?! uggh! But we are prepared with new coats for the kids. I'll be getting a few sleds soon. Yeah for winter!

Jace-ism

This week at FHE:
Dad Q: Who is Jesus?
Jace A: He's that guy in the sky who is so good that we have to do what he says.

The things kids say...just gotta smile!

What is it about a 2-year-old...

...that makes me want to run away to Africa and hide
...that makes me sigh out loud
...that makes me laugh
...that makes me groan
...that makes me pick a box-full of cheerios off the computer room floor
...that makes me pick up 1000 beads off the art room floor
...that makes me scrub the marker off the walls
...that cuddles oh so sweetly when she is tired
...that says more puzzles, Mommy, please!
...that makes me chase her giggling, naked self down the hall after I have dressed her for church
...that makes me ever so glad she is mine
