Jason's Hand...

I'm not quite sure why Jason wanted me to take a picture of his hand, but I was a good mother (yes, it happens occasionally) and obliged.  And now I'm sharing it with you.  Enjoy!

Cooking

I was cooking in the kitchen (strange place for that, I know) and the kids wanted to join in on the 'fun.'
Here's Shelly & Jason all dressed up in the aprons.  
She's intent on finding that illusive recipe 
(even though you can see the dough already made in the Bosch)
I think she just caught on...

Annie Moves!


Video of Annie crawling...


Apparently it disappeared...   Sorry!

New table

Mark made us a new table, and it looks great! It's about twice the size of our old one (this way we might actually be able fit around the table and have guests over at the same time!) It was an adventure getting it to fit in our cute little house, but we actually ended up opening up our living room more than it used to be. Thanks honey! You're awesome!
Here's the table before we moved the bookcases (the old table was against the wall on the right of the photo - the new table will not fit there)

Shot of just the table!  I'm so excited!

Mark giving us perspective on how big it is.

And, our newly arranged room (living room/dining room/play room/all purpose only-room-in-the-house-that's-not-a-bedroom-or-bathroom room)

I like it!

Bathtub

The kids love bubble baths at Grandma's house!  That's about 10 times more bubbles than I give them at our house (on the rare occasion I even let them have bubbles)

Annie's First Tooth!

Annie got her first tooth today!  It's her bottom right tooth.  It helps explain all the drooling that's been going on around here lately, and all the screaming and the hard-to-comfort-baby we've been dealing with.  Well, one down, lots more to go.  At least we get to move onto solid food soon!

Sleepover with Grandma!

On New Years Eve!  
They took full advantage and had way too much fun!


Grandma made everyone their own huge snowman sugar cookie to decorate

Seems Emily was not amused.
(I think she was just upset about being caught trying to steal the silverware...)



Shelly showing off her snowman

I think this one is Jason's

Shelly's snowman is now missing a head - probably didn't take too long

Emily should be a professional... 
(or not)
I think this was Annie's.  Her's looks rather plain...


Getting ready for bed

Yea, they'll be asleep in no time!
