Catching Up

Blake and Ashley having fun with the Halloween costumes Grandma got at the after Halloween sale.

Ashley loves sunglasses.

This wig is the same color of Ashley's hair and I wanted to see what Blake would look like with it on. :)

I laughed and laughed. :)

The kids making "barf." A mixture of yogurt, grapes, some kind of seeds and other nasty things. Ashley said, " Mom, do you want to try some of our barf?" Yeah, no thanks.

Ashley got her first hair cut. It was a TINY trim.

Last month I came home and found Gilbert like this. I bawled. We had had him for 16 months. I took a picture because my kids were with Eric. I ended up just leaving Gil in the bowl until they got home (only a day later). I cried again when we flushed him. My kids were sad, but I definitely cried the most.

Blake wrote me a cute note. "I love Mom."

Ashley got into some old makeup. Do you see it even in her teeth? :)

Blake, Ashley, Lucy and Clay. Ready for church. They came out for Thanksgiving and "Thismas." Christmas at Thanksgiving. The exteneded family gift exchange. I couldn't find my camera that day, but found it the very next day. I hate that when that happens.

Ashley and my sweet white elephant gift I got from Mindy. Now Uncle Spencer says I have no excuse not to run in the rain. Hahaha.

Cute, cute baby Henry. He looked so much like Blake did when he was little, I had to take a picture.

My little buddy.

Lucy and Henry.

Ashley wanted her pic taken too.

She pulls the funniest faces.

Blake opening up an early birthday present from G&G Livingstone. They may be still in Canada on his birthday.

He was so excited to get a Woody doll with a string. Thanks G&G!

Grandma is so nice and let Ashley open one of her birthday presents early.

The puffy skirt Ashley wanted!! Thank you G& G!

Jessica and I at Cyndi's. Cyndi is the hostess with the mostest. She did not want me to take her pic. Cyndi you always look great!!

Getting ready to decorate cookies.

One cookie decorated. Ashley has not been letting me do her hair lately. Its driving me nuts. She swirls her finger around her hair and makes serious snarlies. And she wonders why it hurts so bad when I brush her hair?

All kiddos busy at work.
