Christmas Eve

More guests

My dad had to leave us after three days and get back to work...but he was quickly "replaced" by Uncle Trey, Miss Chelsea, their dog Minka, and Caesar. It was so wonderful to have a house full of family.

I just had to share this picture of Trey using Rea to workout...she thought it was the coolest thing ever!

Reagan June turned three

My girl is three. I can hardly believe it. It has been such a blessing to witness her growth and development.  God has given her a sweet, tender spirit and it brings me so much joy to be around her. She is loving, snugly, thoughtful and silly.  She goes no where without her precious "Bunny" and would rather eat a pop tart than anything else on the planet. Her sweet tooth continues to know no bounds and her favorite person on earth (besides her daddy) is her Papa. She has potty trained herself and is fiercely determined to do things on her own. She is very excited to start ballet next month and strives to do everything that her big brother does. And like she always tells me....she's a big girl, but she's my baby.

For her birthday we did a small celebration at home with Josh, Wyatt, my mom and dad. I made pink, strawberry cake as Rea requested and we opened presents after dinner. Little miss was definitely spoiled and her addiction to all things princess was solidified. It was such a fun night with no fuss! I hope all birthdays are like this in our house.

Papa and a Red Ryder

Just before Christmas (and Rea's birthday) the kids got an extra special treat. Nana came and she brought Papa with her...and Papa brought with him a Red Ryder bb gun.  The gun was actually my dad's when he was a little boy and he has since passed it on to Wyatt. It melted my heart watching my dad teach him all about how to properly handle, use and clean a gun. It was so neat to watch dad teach his grandson about something that he is so passionate about.  It made for great pictures too!  And don't worry...daddy got in on the action too! They set up targets in the backyard and shot to their hearts content.

Wyatt's Christmas Program

On Decemeber 6, Wyatt participated in his school's Christmas program. It was pretty much the same as last years and every bit as adorable...here's the whole thing on video...

Fingernails

Daddy told her that if she eats green peppers, her nails will grow and then she can get polish on them. She checked them after each and every bite of her dinner...

A few silly ones

Here are a few silly pictures of the kids from my cell phone...
