January snow 2010

It snowed here like it does normally one day in January. The kids had so much fun in it, well Nathan not so much. They even played their first snow ball fight with some kids down the street.

Catch up!

Ok I realize it has been a while since I blogged. I will be posting everyday to get caught up for the next couple of weeks. The dates will be wrong on the top. Please forgive me. I have been busy chasing a toddler and my computer crashed. I still have pictures though so here we go....

Celebrating the big 1!!!

N turns 1 this week but since Nana and Papa were here we celebrated early. I decorated a fire truck cake and bought him a hat. He wouldn't keep it on very long but liked seeing it on us. Papa provided the entertainment with his puppets. He picked at his cake a little then decided to grab it with both hands and go at it. I took it away after a few bites.

Well our Christmas started at 5am with the girls ready to go. I was already up with N so I let them open their stockings and let the rest of the crew sleep. We had a nice leisurely time opening gifts. One of the biggest hits of Christmas were play quilts that my grandmother made. H got mermaides and L got fairies. The girls LOVE them. What a special first Christmas with N . He loved all his music toys. Nana and Papa being here made it extra special too.

N is 11 months old! and walking.

N is 11months old now and walking! He is so proud of himself. Always going with a smile on his face and hands in the air. He's such a happy boy.In the second video he is making the car sound if you listen close. Such a boy!

Wonderworks!

This was a very interesting place. We all had a great time.

Pigeon Forge

Pigeon Forge had some great Christmas decorations. This was the hotel we stayed in. They had a glockenspiel ( large bell instrument) that looks like a large coo coo clock.
