Randomness

The kids were mesmerized and excited to check out the air popper I got for my birthday.

Love to see all three of them playing together. It makes me smile.

One tired baby.

Two tired big kids. How sweet to see them touching each other and not screaming.

Mommy's Christmas gift.

I felt a little mean taking this picture. She got herself stuck like this after her nap. I left the room to get the camera so I could snap this pic. She was so sad.

Sophie and Olivia love to play together. You wouldn't think they would care too much about each other since they are so little but they always migrate to each other when they play.

This cracks me up. Pam and I were playing the kids handheld game systems and Noah was playing Daddy's DS. This picture just makes me laugh, little Olivia trying to see what's going on too.

My sweet little Livi Boo. I have a picture almost exactly like this of each of the other kids too.

She loves to play toys and I love to watch her play. It's always fun to see what she chooses to play with.

Our hooded cutie.

Christmas 2010

Aren't we a lovely bunch on Christmas morning...

Olivia got a little dolly from Santa in her stocking.

I loved that even though she is so little Olivia was totally paying attention to what her daddy was showing her. Too cute.

Getting a closer look at those pacifiers she got.

Mommy and Olivia opening her very first Santa present.

She didn't stay interested for a super long time but she did a great job helping pull the paper off.

Not nearly done with everyone opening gifts and Olivia was pooped. She had a little nap while the rest of us finished up. All the Christmas fun sure is exhausting for little ones.

Noah was just about able to hide behind his pile of gifts. Lucky kid.

Finally he got a pillow pet too!

Zoey LOVES the puppy purse her G & G McKinlay sent her. Totally awesome gift. She had it on her the whole rest of the day.

Seriously my very favorite Christmas gift. I just adore my little Livi Boo!One of the funniest gifts ever. My in-laws crack me up!

Trying to be helpful by chewing open Grandma and Grandpa's gifts.

Christmas Eve 2010

Not quite sure what had Noah so surprised.

Our 3 beautiful babies. Ok, 2 of them are getting further and further from babies but I am thinking it is likely I will be one of those moms who always thinks of them as my babies.

Noah had to make sure to tuck his shirt in so we could make sure to see the football on his new jammies.

I had such a hard time finding Christmas jams for Olivia. I was thrilled when I found these. How much more adorable can she get?

Zoey is so over me having to take a picture for everything. She is a pretty good sport most the time though.

Look what I can do Mom! Noah comes up with the weirdest stuff. Oh dear...

Santa always goes away with tasty stuff from our house. Zoey wrote Santa's name on his cup. I thinks it's funny that the S is backwards.

Look at all those presents just waiting to be opened. I am so thankful every year for the ability to put presents under the tree.

Christmas Cookies

We loved baking and decorating cookies this past Christmas. Zoey is so fun because she is getting more and more into this kind of thing. My mom and dad came over and did some cookie decorating too. It was a fun thing for everyone.

This is the way Zoey holds her mouth when she is working hard on something.

I am pretty sure Noah ate more M&Ms than he put on cookies. That's half the fun though right?!
