We get to find out on January 8th if were having a boy or a girl. Katelynn wants a girl really bad. Trevor really dosent care.

Christmas Tree Time

The kids loved putting up the Christmas tree this year. They did want to wait for me to get the lights on they were dieing to put things on. We had a great time. I love my little family.

Trevor's Ginger Bread House

Trevor got to pick mom or dad to take him to his preschool ginger bread making night and he picked DAD. They had so much fun. Trevor loved it and was so proud to show me. After I took the picture he was eating it. I had to stop him. He still needed to go to bed sometime. But the next morning before I knew what he was doing he was eating it and it was gone. It lasted one night and one morning.

Warm Wood Stove

We love our new warm wood stove. We got it right after thanksgiving and it has been so wonderful. The kids love the warm heat in the morning to get dressed by. I have to say I like to do it also. When the weekend came we had a sleep over in the living room. The two big kids had a mattress and Jim and I have one. Zachary slept in his bed for part of the night. That night was a very very windy night. Remember we had only had the stove of about 3 nights. I had gotten up in the night so I put a log on the fire and it started to smoke alot. The wind was so hard that it was blowing right down the chumming. So our house filled with smoke and the fire alarms went off for a while. They finally stopped. A few hours later the went off again for ever. Katelynn and Trevor SLEPT through the whole thing but Zachary did not. So we had a really ruff night and we all smelled like smoke the next day. BAD.

Christmas Ornament

Trevor for preschool got to hang up a Christmas ornament that he made on a tree in Vale. He was throwing a very large fit in the car but finally stop to hang his ornament. He did a great job and loved it. Very nice Trevor James.

Vale food bank

Trevor got to go to the vale food bank for a school field trip. For about a month they collected food. We were getting food out of the pantry one morning and I grabbed corn and green beans. He was so mad at me cause he thought that he was going to have to eat the green beans. Now he understands that he doesn't have to eat them they are for people that don't have food. Zachary and I got to go also. We had a great time and the boys loved helping put the food on the shelves.

We love New York

Grandma and Grandpa went to New York and brought us back shirts. All the same. The kids loved them and made Jim and I put ours on also. Katelynn slept in hers and wore it to school the next day. Trevor wore his the next day also. Were so glad that there home and had lots of fun. Thank you so much for the great shirts!!!

Tooth number 2

On the 8th Katelynn lost another tooth. She was so happy. She couldnt wait for the tooth fairy. $2.00 more dollars. We love you our toothless wonder.

OK so I'm alittle slow. A few weeks ago Katelynn had an award ceremony and she got 2 awards. Golden Shoestring Award and Alphabet Expert Award. She was soooo happy and was smiling from ear to ear. She is doing great in school. She is writing all the letters and small words and she is even reading small words. Great Job Katelynn Dawn. We are sooooo proud of you!!!

Halloween

Happy Halloween!!! The kids feel asleep at 430pm and about 530 didn't want to get us so we could make it to the trunk or treat. We finally made it there around 645. The kids still go alot of candy, after that we took the kids to a few house, grandma and aunt Peggy's. They had lots of fun. Zachary didn't like the hat for the honey pot.

Katelynn Dawn lost her first tooth.

The princess lost her first tooth. It has been very lose for alittle while but she had been scared to pull it. So daddy told her to hold it and then he bummed her elbow and out it came. She was sooooo happy. She was so happy that she went in the kitchen and dropped it. It took us about 5 mins to find it. Before she went to sleep I was laying with her talking. She asked what the tooth fairy brings and I told her money. She said that she didn't want money cause Zachary always puts it in his mouth. I told her that the tooth fairy bring paper money not money for Zachary's mouth. She also said that she wanted a surprise not money, like a toy or candy. I told her money is all that she has. So this morning she was happy with $2.00 and coloring pages from the tooth fairy. Good Job Tooth Fairy!!! So we went shopping today to the dollar store so she could spend her $2.00. She loved it. The tooth next to it is lose also. So it shouldnt be long and shell lose another. Watch out tooth fairy.

Halloween Parties

So I was able to go to both kids Halloween parties for alittle bit. All the kids were so cute and were having lots of fun. We love parties. Thank you Rosalie for watching Mr. busy boy Zachary for me. I took him to both parties for a short time and he is very busy and was disrupting the classes trying to learn alittle before the big time parting. I love being with my kids. They bring me so much joy. Here is Trevor with his buddy Colten. As spidermans.

Katelynn's Pumpkin Patch

Last week Trevor and I got to drive over and meet Katelynn's class at the pumpkin patch. We got to ride on a tracker trailer out to the pumpkins. The kids had fun finding a pumpkin that they could carry. That was the rules. After the whole class found one they had snack and got to play games. Everyone played Duck Duck Goose. Trevor loved it. Trevor and I were very happy that we were able to go with Katelynn. Thank you Nana for keeping Zachary for us. So we could have alittle big kid time. After the patch Katelynn had to ride the bus back to school and Trevor and I went out to milk shakes and Joann's to get some ribbon. Thank you for a great afternoon kids. Mommy loves you.
