Taylor is 8!

How can 8 years go by so fast?  My Taylor is 8!  She is such a sweet and special little girl.  We are beyond blessed to have her in our home.  I think the real shocker was she was going to be in Activity Days now!  Baptism for this little girl is Feb. 1. 

We went to Build-A-Bear for her bday as well.  She picked out a rabbit and named it Hopper.  Then we had a party at our house with some of her cute friends.  Happy Birthday TAYLOR!

Sadie is 6!

I know I say this all the time but time goes by way too fast and I can't believe this little girl is SIX already!  I swear she was just 4.  We had a fun birthday weekend.  Went to Build a Bear, had a party, and ate lots of cake.  Sadie is such a joy to have around.  She LOVES lemon cookies so those were a much for her birthday.  Also per her request we had steak and potatoes for dinner.  She is definitely her father's daughter.  She is into anything girly.  Loves to cause mischief.  She's a sneaky little child.  Sadie is also the best cuddler!  She just melts into you.  She is starting to read and LOVES it.  She is really good at it as well.  Sadie is one smart girl.  She never ceases to amaze me.  I'm so lucky to call her mine and have her in our home.  HAPPY BIRTHDAY SADIE RAE!

Christmas 2013

Christmas has already come and gone in a hurry!  We had a good holiday despite the fact that Jeremy's mom was in the hospital recovering from getting her cancer removed.  We did the usual and made gingerbread cookies for Santa, read the Christmas story, and opened new pj's.  The girls woke up at 5:45 am to open presents.  They were nice enough to wait to wake us until 6.  Taylor and Sadie got their American Girl Bitty Baby Twins to share, Raigen got Lalaloopsy's, and Garrett got some trucks.  Santa was pretty good to them this year.  Jeremy surprised me with a new laptop (I killed our last one and our desktop hehe).  And I surprised him with new shoes. 

This is what Garrett does all day long with his tongue.  It cracks me up.
