It's never too late, is it?

We got the tree's all decorated, this is the kids tree, with there new ornaments for this year.

We started out the months celebrations with QUINTIN'S 7th BIRTHDAY!!!!!!!
He was very excited to turn seven, the only time he wishes he were six again is when he has to go to a quiet time for seven minutes instead of six. We are so thankful for Quintin though and the wonderful person he is, what a special spirit he has and we are so blessed to have him in our family. He is our BIG BOY!
Our annual Flint (Aunt Fae) Christmas Party, with a pinata!

Christmas with the Knight's

Christmas morning at our house. Alecks favorite was his bristle blocks and he still just loves them, it is the only toy he wants to play with. Quintin got the BIG Indiana Jones Lego, he was super excited! If you can see Chad on the bottom, he was also very excited to get NHL 2009 for the Wii (thank you Cori!). I got the book Emma which I just loved! We tried something new this year to try to help us focus more on our Savior and his birth. We only got the kids three presents each, one from Mom, one from Dad and one from Santa, then their stockings. We still got our traditional new Christmas book, pj's and new Christmas outfit. The feeling this year was so wonderful, we were so much more relaxed and I could feel the spirit in our home so much stronger. In past years it has just seemed so overwhelming. Thank you soooooo much Tash for your idea, support and example we LOVE YOU! Thanks to all who have supported us this Christmas season!

Christmas with the German's. I just love this picture of my Grandma with he sister Beth.

Christmas with the Watson's, we had lots of fun playing BINGO and exchanging gifts!

Through it all Aleck kept us entertained!

Memories.....

1. As a comment on my blog, leave one memory that you and I had together. It doesn't matter if you knew me a little or a lot, anything you remember! 2. Next, re-post these instructions on your blog and see how many people leave a memory about you. It's actually pretty funny to see the responses. If you leave a memory about me, I'll assume you're playing the game and I'll come to your blog and leave one about you.

Long time..... no post

Things just get crazy! But we are always having fun! Things we have been up to since I last posted. We celebrated Aleck's second birthday- time flies..... I cannot believe he is two! He has been talking more and more each day- we were so worried for awhile but he has speech therapy now and is doing great. He is such a fun little guy to have around he keeps me on my toes! Valentines........... My two little leprecons..... What a wonderful life I have!

It's raining babies.......

You know when you want something so bad, and everywhere you turn everyone has that something that you are wanting. This is when infertility is the hardest. I was shocked when I found out that I was pregnant last June- and all too suddenly it was over- by the end of July the baby was gone, never to feel, or know if it was a he or a she. I really feel like I handled the " loss well", all things considered. Now as my would have been, due date approaches I don't know how to feel. Some days I am just sad and other days so frustrated- and then on others I just try my best to not think about it. And then I see him- and him- And I remember- I am blessed with two beautiful children who are incredible and bring me so much love and joy. "At times the clouds of sorrow will hover over me. Then I call on my Father for help and he is sure to comfort me." -Martha Payne Jones Thomas June 17 1878 All is Well.
