Holidays

I have been majorly slacking on my blog posts, sorry. It has been busy, busy. Andrews been working crazy hours and by the time I get all the kids to bed, and all the chores done the last thing I want to do is blog!!!
I'm almost ready for the holidays, got most of the presents wrapped and some I have had to re-wrap thanks to Miss Natalie. Luckily she didn't open anything that was hers. We spoiled the babes a bit this year. Last Christmas was not a memorable one. Andrew left for work on Christmas morning, and it was very quiet. This year my sister is here from Princeton with my nieces, Hanna and Sawyer, so Christmas morning will be very busy and exciting! Also, its the twins first Christmas so its a special year. Natalie is very into presents now, so its fun to watch her. Shes excited for Santa to come, sometimes she runs to the window and looks for him. Anyway, here are some pictures from the last little while! Enjoy xoxo

HAPPY HOLIDAYS

Bella looks SO much like her Poppa!!

Milestones

I can't believe my babies are old enough to be eating solids. I can not say it enough...where did all that time go? I guess having 2 babies makes time go twice as fast haha. I've been starting off slow with solids, making sure that I take notice if something is bothering Bella or Rhodes! So far the twins have tried rice cereal and peas. Rhodes has been difficult with eating, I knew one of them would be but I thought for sure it would be Bella. She finishes her bowl every time...little miss piggy! I'm sure Rhodes will get the hang of it eventually, he just doesn't like the texture. Here are some pictures of them having some dinner..enjoy xoxo

My Cuties

Making this a quick one tonight. I am so tired, its been a long day with lots of crying and whining! Natalie didn't nap and the twins are teething, enough said haha. Here are some shots from the kids from the weekend! Enjoy xoxo

Still obsessed with the Penaten.

My new favorite picture of Natalie. She is growing up so fast and looks like such a big girl now!

Just Some Random Pictures

So, Natalie seems to have an odd obsession with Penaten. The other night she was playing upstairs and became unusually quiet. I put down the babies, walked upstairs and this is what I found.

 She was wearing her old summer hat and using the Penaten as lipstick. This one is obsessed with make-up, tattoos and piercings. UH-OH hahaha. She's such a stinker but she's too cute so it's hard to get mad at her.


Apparently Rhodes can fall asleep anywhere. I think he's going to be the type of kid who can fall asleep in his high chair mid meal. Natalie was never, ever like that. The only place she would fall asleep was her bed, the car and sometimes the stroller if we were lucky.

 

 

Bella seriously has the craziest hair ever. It has a mind of its own and no matter how hard I try I can not get it to stay down.  Right now, its super cute but fast forward 13 years and I don't think she'll like it too much haha. All the kids have really bad cowlicks thanks to their Daddy and Auntie Katie...they can blame them where they're older!

 Other exciting news from the week is that our kitchen is almost complete. All we are waiting for is our new counter top and we also have to put on the hardware and then its finished!!! Sometime soon were ripping up all the carpet in the living room and carrying on the laminate flooring. We're also replacing the carpet in the basement and turning it into a huge playroom for the kids. I'm so excited to get all these renovations done just in time for Christmas!! One of our "gifts" to Natalie is getting the play room done. I'm thinking lots of Sesame Street wall decals and chalkboard paint for the walls!! She's going to love it. Hope you enjoy the pictures xoxo

Halloween

Well Halloween was truly disappointing this year. Natalie woke up grumpy from her nap and informed me that she did not want to do anything. Her response to dressing up was "NO". That's her new favorite word haha. I finally convinced her to dress up and man did she look cute! Those of you who know her can just imagine the theatrics from her, she was touching her face and looking at herself in the mirror, saying "pretty"...oh what a goof! It turned out to be a chilly night so auntie Katie stayed at home with the twins and handed out candy. Natalie and I headed out at around 6pm and were back home by 7pm...I guess free candy isn't her thing haha, she just wanted to go home.

She was on a mission!

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

So our house has literally been turned upside down since Friday...I've been living without a kitchen and that is no easy task when you have 3 young children! I'm really hoping that everything will be done by the weekend so that I can have my main floor back. I'm sooo excited to see everything finished and also for all the extra cupboard space! I'll post pictures as soon as everything is finished.

Here are some more pictures of the kids from throughout the week! Enjoy xoxo

Prince Rhodes

Hanging out with Daddy.

My Munchkins

I'm kind of failing at this blog thing. I thought I would be able to post daily, and that is definitely not working out haha!!! My life is just way to crazy lately. Natalie just cut a molar, and both the twins are teething too. I'm gearing up for months of fevers, drool and crying!! Poor babies.
We're starting a kitchen reno this weekend. I think I have gone crazy because no one in their right mind would tear apart their house when they have 3 kids lol. Friday we start the demo, Saturday is laying new flooring in the kitchen and living room and Sunday is installing all of our new cabinets. I'm just looking forward to Monday because that will mean its over and we'll have a beautiful, new kitchen!
Anyway this past weekend/week was busy, busy but I did manage to snap some cute shots of all my munchkins!! Enjoy the pictures and wish me luck this weekend! xoxo

Natalie

A couple pictures from our first day home from the hospital.

One of my favorite pictures of Natalie to date.

Came across some pictures of Natalie when she was a baby! She was such a cutie! Just thought I would share a couple pictures!!! Enjoy xo
