A COUPLE CHRISTMAS PICS!







My mom got the girls some dance clothes so Kamree wanted to wear both her skirts! Lexie is modeling her new hat and gloves and of course the traditional Christmas jammies! Thanks Grandma Joanne!

CHRISTMAS SCENE...


...IT'S FUN TO BE SANTA! :)

RANDOM PICTURE OF ME!

Only my mom loves to take pictures of me!

MY SNOWFLAKE KAMREE!


BIG SISTER LEXIE!


Lexie is learning how to read very well and she absolutely loves it! She also loves being a great big sister to Kamree.

JORDEN IS TOO FUNNY!!


This child never ceases to amaze me! She isn't really sleeping, she just thought it would be a fun place to pretend to sleep! She brings a lot of humor to our house! Thanks Jorden!

KAMREE


Future dress up queen!!

OUR HOUSE


This is our second house Jeff built. It is beautiful inside and out and I love the plan. Plenty big with lots of cupboards and storage! In a great location as well.

IT'S BAT GIRL!!....I LOVE THIS LITTLE GIRL!




KAMREE




Lexie and Jorden decided to fix Kamree's hair with an assortment of clips, etc... Kamree loves hanging out with her sisters. I love Kamree's camera smile! She does it every time :)

DRESS UP QUEENS...


I am not sure why I even get my girls dressed each day. I should just take out the dress up bin every morning and say "pick out what you will wear today!"

JORDEN

Jorden still falls asleep in interesting places. She will never admit she is tired or willingly go to sleep. It just has to happen when she doesn't expect it. She loves to play games on the computer so here she is all tuckered out in the computer chair :)


HAPPY HALLOWEEN!!











HANGING OUT ON THE STAIRS........


KAMREE












KAMREE IS SO CUTE AND FUN! SHE IS GROWING UP SO FAST AND KEEPING UP WITH HER BIG SISTERS. SHE IS AT SUCH A FUN AGE, LEARNING TO TALK AND UNDERSTAND. I LOVE THIS LITTLE GIRL!



SISTERLY LOVE




These girls love each other so much and have so much fun playing and laughing together.

LEXIE'S FIRST DAY OF KINDERGARTEN



Lexie loves Kindergarten and is such a smart, wonderful girl who LOVES to learn and grow bigger!

FLOWER GIRLS

Lexie and Jorden were flower girls for the most beautiful bride ever, my friend April. It was a lot of fun and the girls loved being little princesses for the day. Thanks April!

I just thought this was the cutest thing. We went on a walk over to the park. On the way there and on the way back the girls held hands like this. I love the looks of their little hands intertwined like this....ahhhh....makes my heart melt!! Jorden wanted to make crinkle nosed smiley faces like Kamree for the pictures. I love my girls!





OUR MODEL!!!!


Lexie loves to pose and have her picture taken. Of course I think she is just adorable so I love to take her picture! We were out shopping and Lexie put this hat on in the store and said "Mom, this hat is just so cute on me!" I agreed so we had to buy it. "I love you beautiful girl!" I am so glad she is mine :)

Lexie did a dance workshop last week. She had an hour of tap and ballet every day. She did the workshop at the same place I danced growing up. I was able to help teach her class and also teach the ballet portion of another workshop. It was fun to be involved in dance again. Lexie is a very talented dancer. It will be fun to watch her grow and improve her dancing.

This is Kamree's picture face. If I ever bring out the camera she flashes this face. Never fail! I love it!! Jorden and Kamree have been playing a lot lately it is very fun to watch.

WHAT A MESS !!!!!!!!

So....I spent a few hours on the phone one afternoon, of course mom's do not have time to talk on the phone!! But it was a well needed conversation. Here is what happens when you ignore your kids too long. This is the result of a whole box of rice krispies dumped out on the floor. Who do you think was the one who made the decision to dump it out? Jorden of course!

"Our house".....or should I say, "The house" Jeff is building!


Jeff is building our second house right now. He works on it all day (literally) every day (except Sundays of course). We plan on just selling the house and we will only move in if it has not sold by the time it is done. Crazy life, yes I know!! Part of me would love to move into it because it is an awesome plan and would be fun to live in! But on the other hand the sooner it sells, the sooner I can eventually have my own house. Also, I could live without 2 more moves in my life. We will just have to see what happens. Until then, Jeff is working really hard on it and it is fun to see the progress!!

TRAPPED!!!


When Kamree wakes up in the morning or from a nap Jorden likes to go in her room and play with her. Jorden climbs in Kamree's crib and they play in there for a little bit. It is especially nice in the mornings. I can continue to lay in my bed and have a little bit of peace before I get up and get busy!!!

Yummy shish-ka-bobs! Aren't these beautiful! One great thing about summer is the BBQ!

MY GIRLS!!!


Awwww....so precious! (love pictures that spotlight drool)


Kamree is so awesome about going to sleep! All she needs is her armful of babies and her fishies turned on and she is done! (I made the mistake of leaving and coming back in with the camera because she looked so cute. She was not too happy about me disturbing her peace)!

Well we are back together as a family and enjoying normal life again! We moved into a rental so I am very happy to have my stuff out of storage and have my own place again!! We start digging tomorrow on our new house!! Yes it sounds exciting, except I might not live in it because we are going to sell it. One day I hope to have my own house that I can stay in and call home....it's O.K. to dream, right?? The joys of life with a husband who can build houses :) Our family is excited for summer! Bring on the sun!! Jeff will be busy building so the girls and I plan on just playing all summer! I hope to keep my blog up to date now that we are settled again with my own computer, so check back in from time to time and let me know how you are all doing!

Lexie and I made pizzas last night. We made the dough from scratch and they were quite tasty. Lexie loves to help me in the kitchen. She really enjoyed playing with some flour when we were done. She loved the feel of it on her hands! Kids are a good reminder of the joy we can find in the simple things of life!

Sleepyhead Jorden....zzzzzzzz

Jorden just can't seem to stay awake these days. She has not consistantly taken naps for quite some time, but for the last week she has taken one every day. She can't make it through the day with out one. I am not sure what to think about it. Of course it is great that she is taking a nap, but the problem comes when she will not go to sleep on time.....I wonder how long this will last??


Lexie LOVES her new bike!!!


Never a dull moment.......
