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!

I want these-

Why is it that the boys always get the lashes? Now don't get me wrong my boys lashes are beautiful, I wouldn't want them to not be. So are my Dads, and my brother Jeffs; my Grandpa and my uncle also have some lovely lashes. Do you see the trend. It is just not fair! I guess I will just be happy to admire my boys- they sure are lovely.

{Aleck}

This boy just melts my heart - - First thing in the morning, he always comes to find me with a smile on his face and says,"Mom I awake". - Then he needs help to go potty, as he sits on the potty he looks up and says, "I love you, much", with a big yawn. - He loves hugs and kisses. - He can throw a tantrum like pro. - He loves. - He is not good at sharing. -He is stubborn. - He looks up to his big brother. - He never gives up. - I feel his preciuos spirit, it fits his body perfectly. - He is strong. - I am so thankful he is mine, for a time, and then on through eternity.

Preschool

Aleck started preschool the last Monday in February, I don't think I was ready, but he seems to be just fine:) Today he was going crazy waiting for the bus to come and get him, he was so excited! These are pictures from his first day of school- He has started saying cheese when I take his picture {if you couldn't already tell}. He had to show off his backpack. I felt so bad on that first day, he had been so excited to go on a bus, but I didn't tell him that I wasn't coming. When I handed him off he looked so scared, it broke my heart. I am so glad that he didn't start crying, I don't think I would have let him go if he had. He would hardly look at me as they were buckling him in. At this point I was holding in my tears- so I wouldn't make a fool of myself in front of my neighbors. {Oh boy, I sure love this kid}
