Pump It Up With Santa!

Not that either one of my kids cared at all about seeing Santa...but it was a great time to go to the "jumping place" with Daddy and some other family that doesn't normally get to go at the same time as us! Last Tuesday we went to Pump it Up with The Prindle Family, Michelle and Tegan, and Uncle Trey and Aunt Monica. It was especially fun since the kids hadn't been in a while. (Momma is still out of commission for bouncing and climbing, so we haven't been able to go during the days!) The kids and adults had a great time!

Rachel's 3 Year Pics

We finally got around to having Rachel's 3 year pictures taken. She did so well, I had very hard time picking 1 pose out for the package! Luckily, Sears emails all the prints. Here are 15 of the 42 the photographer took! She is sometimes a handful, but moments like this make it all worth it! (The 10th pic is the one that I picked for the package!) :)

Short Noah Update

He finally has a couple more teeth! The first of the 2 came in 2 weeks ago and the second of the two came in this past Tuesday! He is very into taking things from his sister and then quickly running away from her. it can make us all crazy at times! But he also has a sweet side. He is now willing giving us kisses when we ask. (well, usually anyways!) He loves noodles, Cheetos, and has recently fallen in love with apple juice! The sweet taste keeps him begging for more. (although we have had to limit him bc it can make for quite a bit of pooping!) :) my great sleeper has also recently turns into a nightmare! The past week he has been waking up between 4-5am! As you can imagine this is a HUGE ordeal! Hopefully once he is through teething! and we get his horrible diaper rash (from all the pooping) under control, he will get back to normal! But overall during the day he's a pretty happy, loving, destructive little guy! It's true as they say, children change EVERY DAY! I'm thankful to get to experience almost every moment!

Rachel Elise Turns 3!

Our "baby" girl is already 3! It seems like I was in the hospital just yesterday, but she is so much a part of our lives, it seems asthough she has been here all my life. I cannot wait to see what the futre holds for this precious life. Happy Birthday, Rachel Elise!

We had her party before her birthday, so Momma and Daddy took Rachel to the zoo by herself so she had a special afternoon all to herself. Pics of the fun afternoon are below. The party pics will be posted soon!
