Lollipop, Lollipop

I walked into the living room yesterday afternoon, to find this!!  Dad snuck Kaleigh a sucker and she was loving it!  Alec was steadily telling Dad that sister couldn't have a Lollipop!

We also found sister’s first tooth trying to poke through yesterday afternoon, so that must be the culprit of her early fussy mornings!! Hopefully it’ll come on in quickly and we can get some restful nights!

On a side note, we had A LOT of fun surprising Dustin this weekend with a surprise 30th birthday party at Nana’s!! I think he was a little suspicious by the time we got to Nana’s since plans were changing so quickly, but so smoothly…. Ha! Thank you Nana for the wonderful party and to all of our friends for help making it happen!  Happy Birthday Dad, we love you!!

Ho! Ho! Ho!

We had a great trip to see Santa today after church!  Alec told Santa he'd like a Dune Racer and "something for sister."  After we told Santa what we'd like for Christmas, we went picked out gifts for our sweet little angel off of the Angel Tree.  We picked one that is the same age is Alec so Alec was a great helper and picked him out lots of cool stuff!  I hope he and his family have a very blessed Christmas!

Happy Half Birthday Kaleigh Marie!!

Happy Half Birthday Kaleigh Marie!!  We love you more and more everyday, if that's even possible!!  You are such a happy baby and love to do just about anything as long as someone is close by!  You are eating lots of baby food now.  We've tried just about all of them and you love everything except fruit!  I think you can sniff out a fruit from a mile away!  And you make the most horrible face if we try to sneak a spoonful in!  You must be going to be our picky little eater!  What baby eats green beans but not pears, bananas or apples?  You are eating 4 six ounce bottle everyday with lots of oatmeal in the bedtime one.  As of two weeks ago you were still getting up about 4 am EVERY night for a bottle, so last week we started the "cry it out" process.  Poor baby, for Thanksgiving break, we started letting you scream for a while at night and not giving you a bottle.  After 5 nights, you got the hang of it and are now sleeping all night!!  We put you to bed about 8:15 and you sleep till around 7:30.  YAY for Kaleigh!  This month you started doing lots of new cool things!

You love to chew on your hands and feet!

She's going!

Going!

Gone!

You can't crawl but you can certainly get whereever you want to go!  The other night I missed you for a half a second and found you under my bed!  Apparently you saw something you wanted while I was putting brother's pjs on.

Brother got to camp out in mom and dad's room one night over Thanksgiving and you thought you'd give it a try for a minute!

You love the swing at Nana's!  It goes super high!

You also decided that you love to ride around in Alec's little car! 

If your sweet, he'll even pull you around in it with his bike!

Thanksgiving Celebrations!

We had a great Thanksgiving with lots of eating, visiting and playing!  On Thursday, we did Thanksgiving at Dustin's parents for lunch and with my family for dinner.  We especially missed Papa at my family's dinner this year.  He was in the hospital awaiting triple bypass surgery the day after Thansgiving.  He is finally home and we hope he's finally on the real road to recovery!

Alec LOVES to wrestle with dad!

Cousin Will got stuck in Kaleigh's bumbo!

Alec did lots of entertaining Kaleigh over Thanksgiving! 

I'm so thankful for these two wonderful children and the special love they have for each other!

Funnies....

Alec is always talking and you never know what he’s going to say!  Here are a few funnies from lately!


On the way home one afternoon he saw a car with it’s lights on and says:  “Do we not have our light heads on?”

While eating a Happy Meal:  “I'm getting full of fries. I'm growing big like dad”


On the way to town, he says “Look at that cool red Jeep Mom! Do you want one of those” Me - Yes, I want one do you? “No, I want a black truck for 20 pounds!”


This morning Dustin asked if he wanted to be a doctor when he grows up, he says, “No I want to be Spiderman, he helps good people and he punches bad people!”
