our week...

Tobiah would love to spend all day in the water if he could!
We went to pick up a toddler bed for Tobiah from a freecycle post and came back with this, too! Not that we really needed it, but the lady asked if we wanted it right in front of the girls... so one look at their wide, pleading eyes and I knew it was coming home too!
Beautiful bowling buddies
Isaiah's new read... the Hardy Boys. He started this weekend and is already on chapter 9! Ah, a book lover after my own heart!

Happy Birthday Rayna Pie!

After the kids went to bed, John and I decorated for Rayna's 3rd birthday. Lots of balloons, and streamers in the door.

See! There really were girls under there!

In the morning, we awoke to Rayna peeking over our bed and her tiny little voice saying quietly "Hey! I'm awake! And there's balloons!"

Happy Birthday, my sweet Rayna!

another gingerbread creation!

We assembled and decorated a Gingerbread house the afternoon of New Year's Eve. The kids' favorite part?... I'll let you guess! : )

Thank you Grandma and Grandpa Nash!

my funny boy didn't get to help decorate, but he did help eat!

the girls took decorating very seriously
