Just a day in our life ~

Just eating a little cereal.
Marlee likes show us how strong she is.

Go Kevin/Giants!!!

Kevin Boss is my hero! How awesome is it that the Giants are in the Super Bowl this year! I think this might be the first year that I have ever cared! Honestly, I don't even know who has played before, but this year, I'm rooting for the Giants and you should too!

Happy Birthday Marlee!!!

Marlee turned 4 years old today! I can't believe how fast it goes! Everywhere we went she was excited to tell everyone that it was her birthday. We went bowling tonight to celebrate, and Owen didn't really like it, but Marlee had fun. I was actually pretty excited about the bumpers because I forgot what a horrible bowler I am. Rob won, and he was a bit proud of himself, although he really didn't have much competition. That's okay, if it makes him feel better! :)

Better late than never?

So I'm not really sure if I'm right about the better late than never idea, but here are some pictures from Christmas time. Marlee was awfully excited about the tiny christmas tree that she found, and we were pretty excited about how we actually got our tree home. (This included Rob holding it out the window as we drove home, and fortunately it was only about 2 blocks.) Our tree was a bit Charley Brown, but the kids liked it and it was only $5, so we didn't complain.

Tatum...

I was very excited to take some infant photos of my newest nephew Tatum. He was not very interested in sleeping at first, which is what I had in mind, but after a little coaxing from his mommy, he finally crashed for a bit. What a cute little guy!

I was greatful for the practice, and hope to keep getting better and maybe someday make money doing senior, baby, family, etc. pictures.

We finally started getting our laminate flooring in today! It is far from finished...but we are making progress, so that makes me happy.

With all the chaos in our house we are waiting to get our tree and decorations up, and Marlee keeps asking when it will be. I wish I knew, but I have enjoyed looking at all the pictures people have been posting of theirs. It makes it seem a little more real!

Our neighbors have a big inflatable Grinch decoration, and Marlee asked today why there was a giant frog outside their house. We told her it was the Grinch, and then later she was pretty sure it was a pinata and was hoping for some candy. Needless to say, she's pretty disappointed with everything about it. To top it off she told me to hurry inside tonight so it wouldn't get me.

Oh, and Owen has some food stuck in his tooth in this picture... but I liked it anyway.

Dewey...

The last time I saw Dewey I just couldn't help myself. I had to take some pictures of him. He is five months old already and the time is just flying by! He has the most handsome big, blue eyes, and such a cute little smile! Makes you just want to kiss him!! Anyway, I coudn't help putting my favorite pictures of him on here!

I'm getting so excited for Thanksgiving! It is a blessing to be in such an amazing family and to get to see so many of them this week! Have a very HAPPY THANKSGIVING everyone!
