Merry Christmas from the Elves!

Well, I just HAD to waste my time this afternoon and make one of these funny Elf Dances! I saw that my friend, Michelle, did one on her blog and thought it was absolutely hilarious... So I spent way too much time doing one for our little family! We hope you enjoy, and it may take a minute to load. Also, push pause on my playlist, so you can hear the great Christmas Music on the video! Hope you are all having a STRESS-FREE Christmas Season! ;)

All I want for Christmas is to LOSE A TOOTH!

Ian came home from school today and was SO excited to tell me that he finally has a loose tooth! He even wiggled it for me and it about made me cry! I don't know why.... but Ian seems to be growing up so fast these days! So... we'll keep you posted on the wiggly tooth! Maybe he'll finally get the benefits of the Tooth Fairy soon! How great!

A visit to Joliet!

 

 

This past weekend, we went to visit Dave's family in Joliet! We went to Granny's house and visited Dave's mom and Grandma and had a wonderful time there! Then we went to Dave's other Grandparent's house and had a nice visit as well! One thing I'll say is that everyone over there feeds us really well and it is GREAT food! We had a good time!

Techno-Baby

 

Mason LOVE anything shiny - obviously, he's a baby. But he really likes technology stuff... like computer screens, me typing, phones and now cell phones. I took this picture the other day, and it was just cute, so I thought I'd share! It's my texting Mason!

Ian turns 6 years old Nov. 27th!

Too many pictures to post, so you get a slideshow! Enjoy!

Thanksgiving Pictures

As Traditions Go...

One of Dave's favorite traditions of the Thanksgiving Holiday is his MAN TIME playing flag football on Thanksgiving morning with all the guys from church and friends. He looks forward to it every year, and has played now for, I think, 5 years in a row. (at least!) This tradition has taken place in the rain, snow, freezing cold, and good weather. Today is a blustery 36 degrees and he is having a great time. He's still out there as I post this! The 'guys' were a little unforgiving as I, a GIRL, showed up to take pictures! I hope Dave doesn't get razzed too much! Although, someone did want me on their team! haha - yeah right! Anyway, I'm glad that Dave has this tradition he looks forward to - and then 'FEELS' the next 3 days! (from the pain! *wink wink*)

Dave and the guys. (the ones who thought it was ok that I was there taking pictures of my hubby!!!)

His most excellent play!

What a HUNK!

Ian's 6th Birthday!

Happy Birthday to IAN!!! Today Ian is 6 years old! Because it is Thanksgiving and Ian is getting older, we have decided to have a birthday party for Ian off of Thanksgiving. He will have his party on Saturday, so more pictures are to come! But today, I made him a birthday breakfast so far which consisted of (don't laugh because I really tried) 'Death Star Pancakes'. As you can see, they don't REALLY look like the Star Wars Death Star, but hey, they are what YOU SAY they are! He liked them and thought it was neat to have a 'birthday breakfast'! He also got to open Great Grandma Jensen's birthday card today, which he was really excited about and is excited to go to Walmart to spend his birthday money! Happy Birthday Ian!

More Snow Pictures

Well, it hasn't snowed for a week, but I forgot these pictures were on my camera, so I thought I'd post them anyway! Luke had a great time 'sledding'!!! These were taken the second day of the snow last week!

Mason at Five Months

So my little guy turned the big 5 months old today! So sad... he's growing up! But he is a complete joy (other than the spontaneous spit-ups multiple times a day) - but he is awesome! He is rolling over, eats baby rice and oatmeal from a spoon very well, loves to eat his fists, smiles a LOT, sits up with support, and looks WAY cute in his little snowsuit! He's a little 'squealer' when he wants to chat with you and the boys love him so much! I love this little Radio Flyer outfit, and HAD to take his picture with it - yes, he's a big boy and is already in 6-9 month clothes. What a chuck-a-lug! But I love him so much!

Oh yes, and I have to credit this way cute collage to my blogging buddy, Janessa! I already had picassa, but she informed me how to do these cute collages using that tool! I love Picassa! Thanks Janessa!!!!!
