Aspen is WALKING!!!!!

Well it is official Aspen is walking now. She started walking a couple of weeks ago but now she just keeps walking more and more. I think she loves knowing she can walk and be big like her brother and sister. She always giggles and laughs when ever she is walking. She is so stinking cute!!!! She turns one this month and I can't believe she is growing up so fast. Patton also turns two this month so we are going to be having a double birthday party. It will be lots of fun. More Posts to come on Patton and Aspen.

SNOWMAN!!!

Since it snowed Addilee has been begging me to build a snowman. We haven't been able to build one because it has been so cold that the snow wouldn't pack together. It finally turned off a little warm so we built a snowman and she loved it. Patton had fun but didn't really know what we were doing but he had fun just playing in the snow.

New hair cut

Before

Before

After

After

Patton needed a new haircut so bad so I finally got Ben to cut his hair. His hair was getting so long and shaggy. Ben did a great job cutting his hair which I new he would he always cuts his own so I wasn't worried. Patton did great I was a little worried because he has never had a haircut with clippers so I didn't know if he would sit still but he did great!!!! Now I have my handsome little man back!!!

Sledding

We decided to take the kids sledding after it snowed. Addilee loves to go sledding and this was Patton's first time and he LOVED it. I was a little worried about him getting cold but he had so much fun. Reece and Parker came up to go sledding with us and they had lots of fun also. I left Aspen with my mom and dad because she is so small and I had no place to put her so I left her home. We had lots of fun and look forward to doing it again.

Merry Christmas

Merry Christmas everyone hope it was great! We had a wonderful day full of excitement and fun. I got up early and got myself ready and then just waited for the kids to wake up. Addilee comes running in the living room and comes up to me and says mommy as she rubs her eyes she looks at the tree and says with all excitement DID SANTA COME!! Then she runs back to Patton's room wakes him up and says PATTON SANTA CAME WAKE UP LETS GO SEE WHAT WE GOT!!! So of course they both come running. They were super excited for everything they got. Addilee asked for a microphone and a radio and Patton never asked for anything specific I think only because he still didn't really understand. And of course Aspen couldn't ask for anything either. So for the most part it was all a surprise. We had a great day and was so thankful for everything we received. Thank you all for everything. We love you all and hope your day was just as blessed as ours.
