My sister came with me to stay for a few days with her new baby who is 1 month younger than Levi. And what else could we do but have a photo shoot! i have no idea how people do it with twins just having two the same age in the same house keeps us busy and i don't even have to take care of one, If they were both mine i would be a crazy person right now! My hat goes of to all you Moms with twins and especially ones with other kids. You are amazing people.

On a farm?

Notice the cows in the background. I swear Nate's Law School in not on a farm! But yes this is less than 5 min. from our house

Lovin Levi

How cute is this boy. I just can't get enough of this darling boy. The only way he could get cuter is if he would sleep 10 hours at night. Hey a Mom can WISH! And for all you who have those kids who sleep 12 hour the first week home from the hospital i don't even want to hear about it! I can't believe he is already 2 months. These last two months have been a blur, but i am coming out of the fog now. 

a warm spell

Meg was happy for the warm spell she could play in the backyard and be nature girl, picking leaves and walking on the wall.

Easy Bake

These two can whip up a whole lot of mess!

BUMBO

Back in School

Math, spelling it comes easy to Rex!

Rex had a great first semester in first grade. 

Emma was recognized as the student of the month, by her teacher.

As always everyone knows and loves Emma

Potty Time

The only good thing about potty training is this picture!!!!

Christmas fun

Not just any Mr. C but the same one has been coming to our house since i was a kid. 

Big SIS

2nd cousins Christmas Eve

Here are the kids New Years WISH... I 'm just wishin to learn how to juggle 4 kids, lose the baby weight, make healthy exquisite dinners that Meg will eat, not likely unless sugar and chocolate milk are healthy, teach my kids all they need to know so they can be amazing people when they grow up, Organize everything that has not yet been organized since the move, nate and i just opened the last box this week! Not bad considering he was in law school and i had a baby! Get my husband through Law School, and not go crazy!
       

Bake your own Cake!

So Nate and i both had birthdays this week, and we both made our own cakes! Not planned... it just worked out that way.

My birthday is on New Years Eve it can get boring just waiting around for the new year to come so i made plans. Kids made petroglyphs like the indians to commemorate the past. We had a balloon launch for our wishes for the future, hats, poppers, a motorcycle jump at the paris hotel, fireworks on the strip. THE WORKS! (pictures to follow next post or so!) I have been wanting to make these Sweet little treats from here

SO I DID!

and thats how i made my own cake

Nate's birthday was highly neglected. I don't even have a picture of the cake he frosted and with candles made a "32." then carried it in for himself because Emma and i and Rex are addicted to My Sims Kingdom on the Wii and he had to come get us so we would sing to him! Poor guy.

The best part was when the kids asked where his presents were Nate asked them if they bought any. At first they said no then they got an idea. 

Give him something we have!

So they ran and found things and wrapped them in blankets

Even Meg caught on to the idea! It was really funny. 

By the way my brothers says these are freakin' awesome but.... they take a long time to make fairly simple but a long process

Cousin Christmas PJ's

I always loved Christmas Pajamas, is it because it was the only present i got to open on Christmas Eve. I'm not sure. I still remember a nightgown i got that was Christion Dior Pink silky one, that i thought was amazing. There were flannel pj's, matching pj's. This year their were light up pj's, High School Musical pj's, & Dr. Seuss Pj's

FALL FUN

Can you believe this is the street we live on...

This is just before we left for the Christmas Holidays
