Winter Photos

We had these photos taken of the kids through our MOPS group. We promised the kids a trip to McDonald's afterwards. I asked Alexandra if she'd like a happy meal, she thought for a second and replied "No. I'd like a mean meal"......

Merry Christmas and Happy New Year!

Kids + Dog Costume = Crazy Photos

Wow - give a kid a dog costume and see what happens! Poor Noel. She's a good sport. Good thing the cat got away before it was her turn.....

SANTA

The kids saw Santa at the Farmington Mall last night. David hounded him for a ride on his sleigh (and wouldn't take No for an answer), an I-Dog, and a MP3 Player.

Alexandra wouldn't say a word to Santa. So David explained to Santa that she doesn't really like to talk much, but would like Princesses and a Doll House. What a helpful big brother!

Christmas Tree Cutting

We went out and cut our Christmas tree on Saturday. We enjoyed a hike in a little bit of snow to find the perfect tree. It's huge, full, and decorated with a zillion ornaments by our kiddos. I love Christmastime!

David lost a tooth!

David lost his first tooth on Saturday. He went from suprised, to sad, to really sad, to mad that he'd swallowed it, and back to suprised. Very funny. See photo - he was sad in this one =)

David's First Day of Kindergarten

Wow - How time flies! The kids are getting so big.

David had his first day of Kindergarten last week. So far he is loving it and having so much fun. He started riding the bus today (sorry, no photos - I didn't want to embarrass him in front of the "big kids"!) and joined his new classmates in his first full day with his teacher.

Alexandra is taking the transition pretty well and is enjoying her one-on-one time with mommy. She told me after we put him on the bus "My David in 'chool. Miss my David.....". So cute!
