Two More Days...

until my sister and nieces get here! They live about six hours away in southern Illinois. Xandria can NOT wait until Chelsey gets here so she can finally see her! They haven't been here since July. Chelsey is 7 1/2 and Skylar is 2 1/2. So we look forward to seeing you!

The Snow Day (from the other week)

Drake was so excited when I showed him the snow outside! He kept saying "snow" over and over, but he had to get bundled up before he could go play in it. Hadn't gotten him snow pants yet, so I managed to find Xandria's old ones (they only had a lil pink on them!), they were a little snug but good enough. He couldn't move too well in the snow, but he LOVED it!! In the one picture where the snow is falling on him, he is trying to brush the snow off the car. The picture where his mouth forms an O is when he is saying "Snow." He started crying when I said it was time to go in (I had my shoes filled with snow at that point!), you can see the tear on his cheek. He tried running off when I said that, but fell down quickly! I don't have pictures of the other two, because the neighbor kids were outside, and they quickly ditched me for them! Next time...just hope we don't get quite as much snow at once again!

For Angie...

Put some more pics of me on here, since you say you don't get to see many! One of me and my gril on her birthday and two of me and Nick.

Thanksgiving...a lil late

On Thanksgiving we went to my parents house where my dad always cooks the best food! My favorites are the turkey, stuffing and dumplings! Drake cracked me up...he doesn't mess around when he's hungry! Before the food was even finished he was yelling "EAT, EAT!" and wanted in his chair! So, he sat at the table by himself drinking a juicebox, laughing and waiting patiently for his food to get done. He pigged out! He actually ate two more times that night too! He would yell "mom!", then "EAT!" and run over to his chair at the table. It was so funny and I cannot believe how much he ate! Xavier spent most of the night playing Playstation games and Xandria watched movies. The last picture is of the five of us. Can't wait for Christmas and more food!!

Fall Photos

It's been a long time since I've posted! We've been pretty busy and I've tried to post pics a few times, but it wouldn't let me...and how fun is it with no pictures to show? Anyway, here are some fall pictures of the kids, even though there's snow outside now! Fall is my favorite time of year. Xandria and Drake loved chasing me around throwing leaves at me. Drake being the boy he is, LOVED the sticks. I will post some other ones with Xavier when I upload those to the computer (I took the ones of just Xandria and Drake while Xavier was in school).
