"The Best Christmas Ever!"

This past Saturday we got out our Christmas tree and Christmas decorations. The girls had so much fun getting things put up around the house while listening to Christmas music. Notice Kaylie dressed as Cinderella and Jadyn as Barbie ballerina in the pictures. That is pretty much how they are 24-7 at our house.

When we were done putting everything up Jadyn said, "This is the best Christmas ever!" I think I have to agree. :)

Update on Brandon

We are now scheduled for December 22nd for our c-section at 9 AM. It was originally scheduled for Christmas Eve but we were able to bump it up a couple of days earlier. I am very happy about that. I can't wait for this little guy to come!

Happy Halloween!

We had a wonderful Halloween tonight. I let the girls pick what they wanted to be this year and Kaylie chose Cinderella and Jadyn chose to be Snow White. They have been so excited to go trick-or-treating and have been talking about going for a long time now. I had to fix "Cinderella hair" and "Snow White hair" for them and they were really excited when I let them wear a little blush and lip gloss. (They have been asking to wear make up for as long as I can remember).

They would run up to each door and Jadyn would yell, "Trick-or-Treat!" I was surprised at their stamina because I think they would trick-or-treat all night if we let them. Right now they are looking out our front window watching for kids to help hand out candy. I just love having kids and finding so much excitement in all of the little things. It helps show what really is important in life.

Happy Halloween!

Brandon is coming...

Our c-section is scheduled! Unfortunately it gives our little guy a horrible birthday- one that he probably will always hate. I will be having Brandon on Christmas Eve! We are very excited to have him come but I am already worrying about how I am going to make his birthday special in the future with it being so close to Christmas. Luckily Kaylie and Jadyn are still too small to read a calendar so we are moving Christmas up a few days since I will be in the hospital for the real thing. Plus I don't think there is a child around that would complain about having Santa come early. :)

Fun with My Family In Town

We had so much fun the past couple of weeks here in Bozeman with my Mom visiting and for the last week my sister and my Dad. I always love watching them with my girls and to see the girls get so excited with them being here. The girls had big plans with them here which consisted of going to McDonalds to show them how good they can go down the slide and going shopping at Target to look at toys. And of course the girls got to make "papa cakes" (pancakes) with Papa Dale too. I think my family was papacaked out by the time they left because we had it so much. :) My Dad was able to enjoy some golf and fly fishing with Tim and able to relax a bit, which I think he enjoyed. It was really a fun trip... well at least it was for us! :)

Thanks Mom, Dad, and Kait for coming! We had so much fun with you here and are missing you like crazy. Can't wait to see you when Brandon arrives!

The Best Birthday Party I've Ever Had

Today I had a great birthday spending time with my wonderful husband and adorable girls. Tim and I had a great lunch together, without the kids, and had fun spending some time alone to talk and enjoy each other. This afternoon Kaylie and Jadyn made me a birthday cake and decorated the heck out of it. I let them put any and every sprinkle we had- including the new princess sprinkles we bought which they couldn't wait to get their hands on. It made my day to have the girls sing 'Happy Birthday' to me through out the day and just to have extra loves from them. Then at the girls' requests we finished the night off with Happy Meals from McDonalds and some birthday cake. I don't think it gets any better than this!

And yes, once again my girls are just in their panties. I can't keep them dressed at all when they are at home because clothes just get in the way of them putting on their dress up clothes. We're working on it! We are also working on Kaylie not scratching her sister. You'll know which one is Jadyn in the video by all the wonderful scratches on her. Oh brother!

The Fun of Painting

Kaylie & Jadyn got watercolor paints for their 3rd birthday and really love sitting down at the kitchen table and painting. They seriously will sit there for 45 min. - 1 hour painting, which is awesome when I am cleaning the kitchen. Well Friday night I let them paint and when I looked over I noticed Jadyn had decided she needed to paint her nails purple. It cracked me up and honestly she did a pretty good job. Once I laughed that was it and Jadyn decided to really give Mom a show by starting to paint her face. If I ever meet the Crayola person who invented the washable paints I am going to give them a big hug. :)
