February - so far

The twins on Valentine's Day. We had a busy day that day with getting cookies/cards to the boys classes, Staff Appreciation at the school which I was in charge of, Moms & Tots & Awana Grand Prix that evening. So I changed my meal plan & did pizza. (quick & easy)

Micah was the happy winner on the novelty car. He received 1st place & so did Dad as part of the leaders cars.

Micah & his Big Screen TV "car" playing the Grey Cup!

And Dad's bathtub.

Lauryn & Leah snuggling their babies watching Sesame Street. They love these babies. They have to have them in their bed to sleep with. They like to wrap them up, rock them & sing them to sleep. The twins are now moved to Calleigh's room now, still in their crib but wanting them to get used to the room before moving into their big bed. Calleigh says "we're roomates now"

January

On January 3rd, my sister & her family welcomed baby Kacy to the family. At that time Katelynn had chicken pox followed by Jada, Jaken, Simon, Micah & Calleigh.

I made this diaper cake for Heidi & Kacy's baby shower.

Kacy - 10 days old. I think she looks just like Heidi & Katelynn.

When I am cleaning all 3 girls like to have a cloth to clean as well. Here Leah is cleaning the computer desk.

But....

this picture better describes life around here(although this was taken at Heidi's)

These 2 are so busy. I don't have to ever worry about being bored or having a clean house with these 2 around.

In January, Lauryn & Leah celebrated their 2nd birthday. We had chicken pox in the house at the time so we celebrated a week later.)with no pictures to prove it)

December/Christmas Update

Since I am so far behind with blogging I have just chosen a few of my favorite shots from Christmas & the end of 2011. Our Christmas(es) started on the 24th & we had something on every night until the 31st.

This is Simon, just as he is. I love this picture of him. He was so thrilled to receive an MP3 player for Christmas filled with his favorite music.

Calleigh on Christmas morning. All 3 girls received these matching pjamas.

Micah, quiet & calm as usual, opening a Collingsworth family piano book on Christmas Day.

I love these 2 sweet peas. If you recall we took photos of them at the piano last year. This year it was a little more difficult to get them to sit there & look at the same time. They do not ever stay still for long.

(you can see the top on the snowman from our front lawn)

Christmas on the 27th

Micah & Brennan

Christmas with the Klatt's

Katelynn, Dad, Derek, Calleigh & Micah all on one sled.

We all had so much fun that day sledding right in Mom & Dad's yard.

The twins loved it. It was their first time to really be out playing in the snow & they had a hoot.

Micah & Lauryn?

Leah & Simon

A good game of Cranium

Lauryn & Leah at Doug & Tins'as on New year's Eve.
