Finally

Trenton has now started to walk. It is so funny to watch him walking. He makes sure he is balanced before he moves again. Much different from Lilly and Deacon who just went for it.

"Oh Christmas Tree"

This year our Christmas tree is very different from years past. My mom gave me the idea for this years Christmas tree. I painted Lil's hands green and made a Christmas Tree on our front window.

Our Trip to the Zoo

The day after Thanksgiving, most families begin to set up for Christmas or they go shopping. Our family, has for a while, gone to the Zoo the day after Thanksgiving. This year the numbers were few, but the moments were grand.

Clint, Deacon, Alex, Tyce and Kelsey

When we entered the Zoo, Lilly immediately wanted to feed the ducks. We told her that was the last thing we do at the Zoo. For the rest of the day she kept asking if we could go feed the ducks.

Cry or Laugh

Lilly does two things: she either makes the boys cry or she makes them laugh! Well today she was making them laugh!




I was working on a project in my bedroom and she and the boys were in the boys room playing. I start hearing laughter from Deacon and then from Trenton. I asked Lilly what she doing. No reply.....which means trouble!
Then Trenton comes crawling into my bedroom and I see that he is covered in milk.
Yep, Lilly had taken the boys milk bottle and was squirting it on the boys!

2nd round

This morning we took the kids to get there second dose of the Flu shot. This time was much better then the last time. While waiting for the Flu Shot, Lilly asked "Are we at the Doctors office?" I replied "yes" She then said "Why?"
I told her that she was getting her flu shot, so she won't get sick. Then she said " I didn't drink the water!"
Thinking for a moment I realized what she was talking about. Lilly and the boys often take baths together and we all know that little kids pee in the bath. Lilly would sometimes drink the bath water and we have told her that she will get sick if she drinks the bath water. I told her that she was still getting the Flu Shot and that everything was going to be okay!

Brunch with Belle

Having a great time

Where the Fun Never Ends

Clint and I took Lilly to see Disney on Ice last night! It was a blast!
I had the most fun just watching Lilly dance. When she dances she sticks out her tongue and and shakes her head.


We're a sucker for the sweet stuff!



Lilly was so excited about Nemo!

The End!

Lilly was sad to leave! She said "We should go again!"

All the way home Lilly wanted us to tell her about Pinocchio! (We ended up telling her the story over 10 times) That was probably her favorite part of the whole show! I wish I took some picture of it though!

Much thanks to Disney!!!
