Blocks and more.

Peter and Marissa have been playing with blocks lately and I was able to get pictures of what they created. also she has been asking for me to take her picture so here are some of the pictures along with the block pics.

She got on his feet and said "mommy take a picture"

A cat and a snake

The star family Mega block style. Well minus the dog.




she kept moving so this was the best one taken with her in the pic.

Building a tower.

A building.

A really tall tower!!

She isn't potty trained yet..she just wants to sit on the potty like she is going....sometimes to avoid a bath.

Well....

Well, I have nothing to write about. Marissa and I have been spending alot of time with our neighbors lately. They have 5 kids and Marissa and the 2 girls get along great. Plus i have found a great friend to hang out with or have some girl talk with. I took a couple of pictures of Missy but not very many...the camera is never in the place i need it at the time.

(Her shirt is not for the new kids but a shirt from college..i know i had to ask.)

We did go over to my grandfathers place to visit. My niece and nephew were in town from college and I only took a few pics and i can't seem to find any of them except this one above.

Peter was getting up and Missy came over and got real comfortable in Peter's lap it was too cute so i grabbed the camera real quick.

I will be 31 in one hour. Nothing big planned this weekend but hopefully in the next few weeks.

Have a great weekend.

Nothing much

Well New years has come and gone and it was hard to get back into routine on Monday. We had been sick half of the 2 weeks peter was off. When Missy is sick we let her have her paci. Monday came and it was hard to keep the paci from her...We did ok that day, Tuesday she was at school so it was fine...then yesterday happened....i have never in my life seen a child hyper-ventilate over a paci. I never gave her the paci but she did find it and at that point I was too tired to fight again. Today of course is school so she should be fine and she is playing at the neighbors after school which should keep her from thinking about it. Here is some pictures.

She wanted her picture made..but her nose was really running. Up close a little gross.

Her funny face..per her request...she is a hoot.

I am getting closer to my birthday..I can't believe its almost here. I am very blessed. Hope you all have a great Day!!

Christmas Eve,Morning and Day (long post)

For Christmas eve we always go to Peter's sisters. They have a huge spread and lots of laughter. This year I took my camera but forgot the sim card and was only able to take a few pics..

Missy and Cousin Evett...she got a little doll she can dress and undress...so much fun!!!

Peter's sister goes all out for this dinner.

Ok we look horrible here...but it was the only one I could get.

Christmas Morning

We had a few things for Missy plus Santa brought some as well. She had lots of fun opening presents.

Showing off her keys and sunglasses.

Pony Castle play set

Wearing a sweat shirt I bought.

Off to my Sisters house.

On to Christmas Day!! We have in the past had family at our house. This year my sister hosted the get together. We decided to just have finger foods this time...Less mess and less work.Missy got some great things and it was great spending time my family. My grandfather was able to leave rehab to come....he was having trouble going through Christmas without grandma. We miss her so much!! I will post a pic from last year of her at the end.

Cousin Melissa helped Marissa open her gifts.

Almost all of the family some are behind the camera.

Opening gifts.

Hope you all had a great Christmas and Happy New Year!!!

Playdate

On Wed 2 of my friends came over with their girls for a play date. They had so much fun. Tried to watch a movie...they went back and forth from the movie to the bedroom. The women got to talk and kids played works very well. Then we ate lunch and played some more. When it was time to go they were tired and not too much of a fight. Marissa went down right after they left and took a great nap. Ladies we must do this again. Thanks for coming over. Here are some pictures i took.

They were singing Christmas songs on the fireplace

Sitting on Santa's lap

Some kids sit well on Santa's lap while others scream. Marissa would fall into the category of screaming. Its starts with last year at circle of friends, then at legacy they had Santa visit again and now this year at circle of friends. I thought it was too funny not to blog about how my child loves to talk about Santa and gets all excited about telling him what she wants for Christmas but when she sees him in person she decides to scream instead. I know i am not the only one who has a child that hates sitting on Santa's lap which makes me feel a little better. Here are the pictures.

Christmas Pictures

Well i finally got Christmas pictures made. They came out great. We also took our family Christmas picture. Here they are!

This one above is my favorite!

Now for our family picture. A few of them were too funny not to post the last one is the one i am sending out.

Have a great Weekend!!!
