Christmas Cookies

Today, we attempted to make the first Christmas cookies of the season. We mostly made a mess but had lots of fun!

One Little Visitor

Sometime during the night this little mister crawled into bed with me. --Which is just fine. I will take the extra snuggles and cuddles.

Tristan's New Bike

We gave Tristan his new bike as an early Easter present. On this night it was finally warm enough out to take it for a spin around the neighborhood.

........and Morgan came along for the ride.

It's Saturday, It's Saturday

Tristan loves to cook. He also loves cooking gadgets like waffle irons and blenders. He spends hours making us soup, cookies, noodles and pie. I don't know if his love of cooking will stick with him, but for the moment he finds his happiest moments on the floor of our kitchen.

Here's Morgan riding around on her car - this was a birthday present. She climbs on and off and gets rides from her big brother every so often.

She also has a four-wheeler from Lexie that is a favorite toy too.

Tristan was helping me clean and had his very own spray bottle and a pot holder for a towel.

Morgan's 1st Birthday

Our New Happy Morgan

It took awhile for Morgan to be consistently smiley and happy.  She finally smiles the majority of the time and laughs and seems to be enjoying life and will even let me put her down to play with toys for longer than five seconds at a time.

Standing Up and Wagon Rides

Morgan stood up at daycare today. Bittersweet moments. My baby is growing up.

And we went for a walk after dinner. It was also the first time I actually witnessed Morgan and Tristan playing together. Tristan was tickling Morgan and she was laughing away.
