JK

So remembered how I said I was a horrible mom this Christmas in not capturing all the classic Christmas moments?

Well Guess what!  

I found my dad's long lost camera on which I also found some Christmas Morning Pictures.
Although they may not be as cute as so many of my friends, and I still missed a few shots that I'd love to try and capture next year, but I'm just happy I have at least SOMETHING to document our own little Christmas.

Here the kids are Christmas morning, in their Christmas PJs super excited to come out and see what Santa brought.
Santa was VERY good to us this year, but before you think we went too crazy, we got everything in this first picture for free with the exception of the Helmet and the little princesses in the doll house.

This was their first view.

And then Just to the side of that here was the other view.


The Rapunzel and Maximus dolls were not originally part of Christmas.  I was going to save it for her birthday.  But I found this idea online that had the kid leave their binkies (pacifiers) out for Santa and he would leave and extra special present in return.  We were slightly desperate and decided to give it a shot.  Well, it worked!  We are binky free as of Christmas Day!


I only had three gifts for the kids to actually open from me and Jeff.  Basically a few clothes and books.  Santa did such a great job we didn't need to do much or really anything but it was the principle of the thing.  :)


P was Super excited about his new Spider-man Sweatshirt.


The after math.  I really should have posted the video, it seriously was priceless.  I loved that the kids were so excited about each other's gifts.  "Look Parker!!"  or "WOW EM!  Look at this!"  It was such a fun morning.  
Here is one last shot of Em trying on her new princess high heals.  I got them from a friends garage sale and she LOVES them!  She was always wearing mine anyway, so she loves that she has her own now.

Anyway, Yay for not being as big of a slacker as I thought!  :)

I need a haircut ASAP! This is me saying, "I'll smile if you ignore my hair." Don't get me wrong, I am really excited I have long hair, I love having long hair , but it needs a little TLC. It has been a few months since I have even got a trim and I am still re-couping from a not so good hair cut. The last few times I have really CUT my hair, not just a trim, I was not pleased with the results. Now it would probably help if I was willing to pay more than $10 for a hair cut . . . but I'm Mrs. High Pockets as my father calls me and it is really hard for me to spend money on my hair. So I need your help! What do you think I should do? Before you make any suggestions you should know: It MUST be able to go back into a ponytail!!!!!!! My hair is STICK STRAIGHT My hair will not curl to save my life (via over night curls, hot curls, even curling irons, they just don't work) I want and need something EASY! I do not like to spend time on my hair and I don...

Em's Blessing

By
Emily's Blessing day was so great! Since we were moving home so soon after she was born, we decided to just wait until we got out here to CA so our family could be there for it. It was pretty low key compared to P's (and by that I mean less family there) but was still just as wonderful. Jeff gave a beautiful blessing. It was also special because she wore the dress I was sealed to my parents in. Jeff wasn't a fan of how long it was for such a small baby, but it was so neat for her to wear something that is so special in my family. The P-man looked like a little stud in his outfit too! I wish I would have gotten some of the two of them together, o-well. It was a fabulous day! Thanks so much for all the family and friends that were there, it meant so much to have you there and we missed those who couldn't come! Isn't she so perfect! I love this picture of her laying on the grass. She is so pure and clean and perfect ! I love her!

Disneyland

By
A little late but . . . We Went To Disneyland! So you may or may not know that we went to Disneyland back in July. It was so much fun! As we were planning the trip I was really worried about how it would be taking 2 babies there, in my mind they were way too young to do anything there but boy was I wrong! All of us had a great time and we all went on tons of rides, even Emily! Here is a list of all the rides we went on: (The bold ones were P's very favorites) Disneyland Railroad Train Enchanted Tiki Room The Jungle Cruise Tarzan's Tree House Pirates of the Caribbean Haunted Mansion Winnie the Pooh It's a Small World Story Book Land canal boats King Aurthur's Carousel Dumbo Mad Tea Party Tea Cups Peter Pan Mr. Toad's Wild Ride Pinocchio Finding Nemo Submarine Autopia (Cars) Did you know babies could do this much! I sure didn't! I even nursed during 4 of the above mentioned rides which was so nice and saved tons of time! They both did so well on all of the...
