Lost Time

So, I have been out of the blog loop for quite some time. Hopefully I am back in to business. I am almost caught up to Christmas. I will do my best to catch up. I am only limited by my three little cherubs and the hussle and bussle of the house. Enjoy all the new pics. Not all at once, you'll get fired.

Fridge fun

From every fridge

Every fridge deserves an ice storm. I don't think it's been this empty in ages. Like since we moved in. :)

Inquest Holiday Party

From inquest party

This was a fun holiday party at Inquest. There were lots of kids and our kids had a fun time playing. they were worn out by the end. It was nice to visit with all the new staff.

Refugees

From refugees

This was a group of pics from mid December during the ice storm. We were all shacking up at the Creaven ranch. Our house got down to 37 degrees. There is one pic in this batch of 47. At the time we didn't figure on it going much lower. We were blessed to be back home in 4 days.

Winter Fun

From winter fun

This is early winter. Look at the joy on their faces. So much winter ahead. But in the beginning it was all smiles.

Ginger House

From jen

We made a gingerbread house this year. It was fun. Sawyer had half and Caleb did half. The Arsenaults and Creavens came for dinner and we had a nice visit.

EI Christmas Party

From EI party

This was Sawyer's Christmas Party for Early Intervention. Sawyer and Audrey and I went to the party and had a really fun time. It would have been nice if we had known more people, but the kids had a great time just the same. Destinee, Sawyer's teacher came with her son. The kids did lots of crafts and had yummy food. They got to meet Santa and Family. And got presents, even some to take home for Caleb.

Early December Pics

From early december

These are some pictures from early in the month of December. The first couple are of Sawyer passed out in his toys. Pretty funny. There are some more cute pics of all the kids. Just fun stuff, no real events.

Sawyer was working his magio with the paint brush. He loves arts and crafts. It was nice for us to have some time to play with paint.

I was outside doing some yard clean-up and Nana was entertaining the kiddos. They were making Monster cookies. Jen and John stopped by with Caroline.

Grandpa Slide

This was a lunch time visit with Grandpa. Audrey was having a blast sliding down Grandpa's legs. Super cute.

Boo Boo Woman

From boo boo woman

This is Audrey's turn with boo boo weekend. She had slipped and bumped her chin causing her to put her teeth through her tongue. It was really nasty. Then a couple days later, she slipped off the dining room table (one of her favorite activities, naughty girl), and fell smack on her head. These are the war wounds to show for it all.

Creaven's for dinner

From visit with the babies

Makes ya want to have more, doesn't it. Nieces that is. This was a visit with Kaylah and Sydney. We get together often and the kids really enjoy eachother.

Sister Mary Audrey

From sister mary audrey

This is the work of her Titi Michelle. We were sorting out her tights to see if we had any hand-me-downs for the girls. Michelle put a pair on Audrey's head. Though she is actually more than agreeable to have them on her head, they are not very becoming.

Grandparents Day

From grandma day

This is Grandparents Day at the preschool. They do such an amazing job every year to show how much we appreciate having the grandparents in our lives. The kids make gifts and the staff do such a nice job putting together a program for everyone. We were blessed to have Nana, Grandpa, and Grandma Janis join us. Caleb was thrilled.

Inquest visit with Daddy

From inquest visit

This is the kids first visit to Inquest. The office was still coming together, but it was nice for the kids to see where Daddy works. We went out to lunch and checked out the place.

Some November

From november

Some bits and pieces from November. Visits with the twins and so on.

Children unattended

From children unattended

This is what happens when children are left on their own. Heaven forbid someone go to the bathroom by themselves. As you can see I'm a mother of 3. Grab the camera and then the kid.

Movie night

From movie night

Movie night in the play room. It was fun. the kids loved it.

Anderson Visit

From henry's play date

This is our playdate with the Andersons. This is our first play date. Lunch and some fun play time. A nice visit for the Moms too. Unfortunately Emmett slept for much of it so we had them back more recently when everyone could play.

From end of fall

This is one of the last hurrah's of fall. and a visit with baby Caroline.

Audrey's helping hands

From helpful hands

Man this gal is helpful. She's showing Jane how it's done.

Facebook

Apparently our blog readers have noticed the lack of updates here lately. The answer to that is because Sarah has discovered Facebook.com. She promises that she will return to posting lovely pictures of our children soon, but if you need an immediate fix, you will need to join facebook.com and look up Sarah.
