Santa = epic fail

Well, Santa was NOT a success this year.  Drey did awesome and was super excited to see Santa....Sloane on the other hand was NOT a fan.

This was the kiddos first day out of the house and into public in almost a week.  As last posted they were sick kiddos and unfortunately they got it all over again 2 weeks later.  It has been a difficult holiday season on the littles and the parents.  We are hoping that everyone will remain healthy from here on out and be able to enjoy the remainder of the winter. We will be taking in a couple hockeys games in GF the first weekend in January and that will kick off the new year with great fun!!

Wishing all our friends and family a very Merry Christmas and a Happy (and safe) New Year!!

Sick Babies

Last week was a tough week on everyone. Both Sloane and Drey were sick with a nasty flu bug at the same time.  It felt like it hung on forever.  I am happy to report that everyone is back to normal.  The house has gone back to the wild, crazy, messy way it was before.  I'm soooo happy to have my healthy babies back!!  While not feeling so good they took time out for a Christmas story (in this pic).  However, for those of you who know Sloane, know that she can not sit still long enough!!....Well she sat still long enough for this picture and then the wrestling match continued!! :) 

Wishing all my friends and family a healthy, safe, and merry holiday season!!

Halloweeeeeeeeen

Cheerleader Sloane!  With all her smiles this seems to be a fitting costume for our lil lady!!

Optimus Prime is getting ready to "roll out."  If you know Drey, you wouldn't expect any other costume!!

Busy Bee!

Birthday Party

Silly Sloane

New favorite pic

The family went to Lake Metigoshe for the long holiday weekend. It's so sad that it's the last weekend of the summer. We are not ready for the summer to be over and for fall to sent in full force. The weekends weather was definitely far from ideal and we found ourselves inside more than we would have liked. But when the sun came out or the wind died we made sure to make the best of it!! Dreyden even got a little tubing and fishing in!! This picture of my 3 favorite people was taken on Friday evening, shortly after we arrived. It's my new favorite picture!!

Just a little kiddo update:
Drey started preschool again last week. He looks forward to going, in fact we use it as a bribery tactic when he is naughty! Matt and I cross our fingers that his love for learning and school will continue for many years to come.

Sloane is on the go. She currently has 2 gears...park and reverse! She still has not conquered the forward motion on all fours, but moves around pretty good backwards. Although she has backed herself into a few tight places (under her jumper and the entertainment center). She also cut 2 more teeth this last week and now has her 4 front teeth. Time flies and it makes me sad how fast they grow up!!
