FINALLY GOT OUT

We finally got out of the house. With the ice on the ground I did not think it was worth driving the roads and hauling the kids in and out of the car if I did not have to. Emmalee was watching Sesame Street yesterday (it could have been a DVRed one) and Elmo went to a gym and was doing flips and jumping so of course that is what she has been asking to do since. So, I asked her this morning if she wated to go shopping or to the gym. She used to always say shopping but it was a die hard gym answere today. Mommy was the greatest person in the world this morning. I am sure after nap it will go back to daddy. Hope everyone has a great weekend.

Family pictures

We had family pictures done in September and I just now got everything together so that I could share them with everyone. It was a great experience. The kids had fun, I did not break a sweat and it was such a short shoot that Mike was still happy when we were finished. I could not ask for anything more. Sorry it took so long, hope you enjoy.

Our first half of January

We have been having a great begining to the new year. Everything has slowed down and we have been do a lot together as a family. Mike and I have gotten a chance to have some adult time. Something that has done our family a lot of good. The kids have adjusted to spending a lot of time in the house. We have been very creative in our activities, rotated toys like crazy and we have had a lot of PJ days with movies. Hope everyone else is enjoying the new year and staying warm in this crazy weather.

This weekend we took a trip to St. Louis to hang out. It ended up being Winter Warm-up weekend so Mike got to enjoy that. We took the kids to the Magic House. They loved it! We enjoyed cooking meals at the apt. and turning off all the lights so we could watching all the cars and city lights. It was a relaxing and enjoyable family weekend. Thank you to mom and dad for a place to stay and to Uncle Steves for watching the girls. The kids had a great time playing with you when we got back.
