New Jams part II

I started these for Wade right after
I finished Ruby's. Boys jammies are way harder
with all the collar and buttonhole business.

I finally finished them and gave them to
Wadey on Christmas eve.
It was totally worth all the effort.
They are now his favorites.
And for the record, this photo shoot
could have easily gone on for another hour
or so. He is becoming quite the little model.

Dinner

We watched Julie and Julia on New Year's Eve, exciting I know.
It made me realize it was time for me to learn how
to poach an egg.
It was a lot easier than I thought. Especially with
all those videos on YouTube!
Anyway, this is what Greg had for dinnner last night.
I can now poach an egg! Yay!
Resolution #1 = done!

Happy New Year!

Since there was no snow in the forecast today
Greg biked in as usual.
It took him a real long time to get home but
not as long as if he had been stuck in
all the snow traffic.

I got my wish...

SNOW!!

It wasn't supposed to snow today but it did!
I pulled the kids over to the park on the sled
for some hill fun.

Wade loves the snow and sledding!
All week I have been begging them
to go outside because it has
been really sunny. They always
say no. The moment there is snow on
the ground they want out and to never
come back in.

Ruby spent most of her time building a snowman.

Wade also makes this face when he is trying
to do the back float in swim class.

We had a so much fun at the park, then
we came back and had a snow ball fight
with our neighbors.

Introducing....our newest member of the family

Holly is 8 weeks old and Santa brought him
last night. He is soooo tiny and really happy and
crazy cute.
Ruby said "Are you kidding me? Santa brought
me a kitty? I must have been really good!"

Merry Christmas!

Santa

The kids decided that we needed to see Santa today.
They had some stuff they needed to tell him and give
to him. We waited in line for 45 minutes at the mall.
They were both amazing.
They both picked out their outfits for this photo op.
They started early this morning figuring it out.
You can't tell but Wade has on green sweatpants. I
tried to get him to wear nicer ones but he insisted
that "Santa really likes green".
Ruby also decided that her dress
looks much better on backwards :)
