It's not just about the gifts but i wanted to remember a few of them. i was given so many nice things and as i've gotten older i've enjoyed giving gifts so much more than receiving them.
It was actually a lot of work helping Alli open her presents, then open mine once in a while, then watch everyone open theirs... let alone Emily and Kadin's gifts. Next year will be a complete and total tornado... one 2 year and two 1 year olds! Hahaha.
i can't wait to head to the zoo this spring and summer. Thanks Grandma!
My tail bone pain is getting ridiculous. i can't believe i'm going to have to make an appointment to have my coccyx checked out (which includes uhh insertion).
In other news...
Here's Andrew digging us out of the snow today.
Our friend finally ventured out to find food.
This isn't the deepest area but it was handy.
The birds are very upset about the water situation.
Christmas might be missing a few people this year because of the weather. It'll still be good though. Just a few a short days away.
Ya know what's really weird about this whole mom thing? i'm responsible for cutting 30 finger nails and 30 toe nails on a regular basis, plus my own. Andrew said he wouldn't mind if i was in charge of his too.
i LOVE this picture. It is Allison's personality to a T. =)
i think she's going to have gorgeous skin.
His eyes seem to be staying blue.
Allison with one of her beloved Ikea dishes.
=) We did it!
Unfortunately, Allison was NOT happy to be near Santa, the babies were spitting up everywhere, everyone was crying at one point... it was such a huge ordeal getting these pictures. But it's over now, yay! i already emailed the photography people to let them know i'm pissed that 2 out of the 3 pictures we paid for are blurry. We chose the USB option, no prints, so when we were looking at the photos on their screen and she promised "they wouldn't really look like that" we believed her. If only a do-over wouldn't take 3 hours and make us go insane...
At least they still look adorable. i LOVE the outfits we found.
Thank God Grandma came to help us. This is our first family picture. If we look exhausted, well, we are!
Can't believe they're almost 3 months already! i also can't believe we let them sleep in our bed most nights. There is not going to be room very soon! Well, it's already a tight squeeze. Last weight check @ 9 weeks they were both around 11lbs. but they're far beyond that now, i'm sure. The smiling and cooing has begun. SO CUTE.
Allison is amazing. She's so smart and cognizant and funny. She is also throwing MAJOR tantrums these days. The walking is in full force, she has finally started using some of the signs we taught her and she loves books. A whopping 14 teeth are now in her mouth (at 14 months old). Last visit she was about 30lbs. and is wearing 18-24mos. clothing and size 7 shoes.
i'm doing pretty good. My only real complaint at this point, besides the obvious lack of sleep, is my tailbone. Although it's more common to injure it during a vaginal birth (which i didn't have) it's also possible to hurt it while being pregnant. The muscles in that area are incredibly painful when i sit for long periods (while pumping, feeding, etc. for hours each day and night) and even worse when i get up. Only time will tell what happens with that. Ouch!
Okay, that'll do for now.
Emily's almost smile.... they're both smiling a lot more now.
Farmer Allison. She looks so adorable in these overalls.
i can't believe Thanksgiving is so close. i love love LOVE this time of year and it's going to be even better this year with the babies and with Allison understanding more. This week is going to be a big week for us: Andrew has his vasectomy on Friday! i'm sure he's super nervous about this so say a prayer for him. We're all done having these beautiful babes-unless God wants a miracle =) i'm awfully sad i won't ever be pregnant again but we certainly have our hands full right now!
