The Great Announcement

Tia put 2 and 2 together rather quickly when she saw Kade's shirt from the front and back. Then Brooklyn's shirt was also part of the discovery. It was really exciting to hear about the next arrival to come in May. Congratulations Loren and Rachelle.

Dec 16, 2012 Marie's Birthday

We discovered quickly that Kade has a great liking for remote control cars and played with them as long as we would allow it.

It was easier to pick up rather than to back up with the remote however before vacation was over he knew how to do both forward and back-up. 

Marie had a lot of assistance opening her gifts.

Showing off her new outfit.

It looked better on her however.

When the gifts were all open it was back to the toys and learning to share a little.

Catching UP _ Loren's Family Arrive In Utah

I had arrived at the airport an hour early and waited at the bottom of the stairs for them to arrive from the plane. I saw them but they didn't come down the stairs but looked as though the were headed down the hall to the outside. I rushed up the stairs only to find them not there and then realized they had taken the elevator. So when I got back down the stairs they were way ahead of me but that turned out to be fun as well when Brooklyn turned and saw me.

After a diaper change it took Kade a little while to warm-up to me so then the games began as Brooklyn led the run around me in circles with Kade following close behind and laughing up a storm. 

However I kept getting closer so he just laid down and ignored me.

They took the elevator again so I ran up the stairs to wait for them as they came out and then it was off to the car.

With Brooklyn leading the way.

Merry Christmas!!

We wish you a 

Merry Christmas !!!
