November iPhone photos

Well. I'm sitting at the hospital. It's 2 am. I'm having consistent enough contractions that I can't sleep but I am still a ways away from having this baby... So I'm letting whit sleep. But I'm bored and need a distraction. Blog time, right?!

So here's the nutshell version. I voted early (thought of course poor Romney lost. Boohoo).


Then we had actual Halloween. Wahoo.


Kanga tried to eat a tootsie roll.


Emmy had some crazy hair (whenever she pulls out the bows).


I sold my old dining set to make room for the new one. It's the end of an era!


The kids went swimming. In November!!





Dora fought the good fight most nights begging to sleep in with me. When whit was working she sometimes won.


I got my hair done dark to minimize roots post baby.


Love that man.


Emmy shuffled on her knees a lot. Even though she's been able to walk for ages. This was her knee shuffling at a soccer game for Eli.


Bonus video of Emmy dancing.

And of her walking. Cutie.

Once she started walking all the time I realized iPhone photo quality may suffer for a while. She won't stay still!





My little panda. So cute.


We decorated ginger bread men.


We went to bass pro shop's winter wonderland.





Kanga was sweet. She's getting so big!!





Clint, Emma and I went on a date to see Twilight 5.


We all played at grandma's house.


Kanga watched tv with me. Check out her furry ears in the bottom right.


We put up our clearance tree from Costco after Christmas. It's too tall by like 8 inches!! Boo!


We had thanksgiving dinner. Yum.








The next day we went to dewberry farms to get a tree.


Then later that day the big neighbor kids played with Eli and Dora. Brendan is in 5th grade but was so nice to Eli and cece is I'm 2nd grade but she played with Dora. The kids had a fantastic time. It was cute and sad! They're growing up!! They were climbing this tree until they discovered ants in it.


Emmy loves her dad so so much. Cute!!


We finished reading the old testament and went to celebrate for dinner tonight.


The kids had a ball. We wanted some fun family time since we knew we were coming in to be induced tonight.


Man I am so so tired but I can't sleep! Contractions stink!!

Baby makes it worth it. :)

Christmas Tree Cutting at Dewberry Farms

We decided to go to Dewberry Farms on Black Friday to chop down a Christmas tree.  Emmy is sure cute when she wants to be--when she's being funny.  She sure has a strong personality though--and with her teeth coming in she's had a rough time.  How can you resist that little smile, though? 

 Here we all are on the train.  Daddy, his little angel Emmy and Eli.

 Here's my little mini-me.   We were all loving the kettle corn. Yum!

 This little pea loves NOTHING more than her daddy.

 Love their special little bond.

 This one can be a handful but she sure is a sweetheart too.  Warms my whole heart.

 The kids INSISTED on an Arizona Blue Ice tree. Also I need to note here that I tried to get him to revise his decision to wear a Jack-o-lantern shirt but he would not budge.  I guess it's my fault for not already putting it away!

 Whit cut it down--here he's holding it.  Emmy is such a mess now that she's walking.

 Here goes Eli on the zip line.  He spent like 30 minutes in there--loved it.

 Dora rode some squishy balls around and around.

 Then we all went to the pillows.  Emmy had trouble because the little one was deflated.

 The kids were so cute together.  I am so glad they are such close friends.

We had a great time, and now we have THREE different trees set up in our house.  It's beginning to feel like Christmas!!
