All I Want For Christmas...

...Is My Two Front Teeth!

How cute are his teeth? I just love them, even though they came in all wrong! First his two bottom teeth came in, then one day I thought he was being cranky so I checked his mouth and found a tooth...but it was a side one. Then a few days later and a lot of Motrin, in came the other side tooth! What a silly boy. My other kids got their front ones after the bottom ones, but he just has a goofy vampire smile for now and I love it!




Today Bethany and Eden hung out with us all day and it was so fun! We always have good times with them. We laughed so hard, maybe a little too hard! :) He He




Well, the babies were playing on the floor in the other room and I hear Boston laughing with the other kids. I go in to see what was going on and I found Bos stuck in the bottom of the bassinet. All I could do was laugh and take a few pics. I love babies!

Newest member of the Fam



**Meet Relic!****

This cute 6 week old Boxer is an early Christmas present for the boys! Max has always loved dogs and has wanted one so bad. They were so surprised when John walked through the door holding him! Actually, they were in disbelief and just stood there with a smile. Max buried his face in the couch for a minute before running and hugging him. Our wonderful friends, the Rogers have pretty much the perfect dog, Jasmine. I have never really been a dog lover but I really like Jas. She is so sweet and good with their kids and ours. I have always wanted to take her home, so when they were going to breed her I just knew I had to have one of her puppies. Well, she only had three and we were so lucky to get one! They are all so dang cute but one had a white nose and he was ours! Every time we would leave their house Max would be so sad and say- I just want that dog with the white nose. No other dog would do.

We have had him for almost a week now and he has such a good temperament. We are in the middle of house training him and he is doing soo good. It is actually easier than I thought! He sleeps all through the night and waits until the morning to go to the bathroom. He is great. I have never done this before but have done a lot a research on Boxers and how to care for them, so I just hope that we will do OK. I think he is the perfect dog for our family and he has made us so happy! BIG thanks to the Rogers Jaxson was playing with him and they both fell asleep together. So cute

HAPPY THANKSGIVING!

I have so much to be thankful for. I am so grateful for everything that I have. I am grateful for my little family, and for the chance I have to be the mom to my sweeties. I love my husband for everything he is, for what he has taught me, and for how hard he works for us. I am grateful for parents who taught me so much and raised me the way they did. I am grateful for the rest of my family and my friends, for the wonderful relationships that I have with them. I am thankful for my savior and for the gospel and how much joy and peace it brings to me. I am grateful for the free world we live in. I have so many blessings. Last but not least I am thankful for such low gas prices!



Thanksgiving also means Brooke and Sam come to visit. We have had so much fun taking this chain apart everyday. It was soo long and the boys thought the day would never come, but it is finally here. Brooke and Sam are coming in late tonight and we can't wait!




Last week uncle Shooter called and was going to be working right by our house and he wanted the boys to come along. He drives a HUGE dump truck that the boys just love. Thanks Craig you are the best!






Max is talking on the radio (probably to patrick!)



The purple one is the back of his truck. I didn't get a full shot of it.




I never posted Maxs' kindergarten pic, so here it is! Isn't he so handsome?
