Christmas

I know more then one post this month :-P. So Here are some of the pics from Christmas this year. Grandma Dottie actually let me take a picture of her.
Here is Jacob, I actually only have one of him, there was no running and popping his head in front of the camera every time I took a picture.Beka wouldn't smile for me so this is what I got.
Here is Ben playing with one of his new lego sets that he got from Henry.
AJ is getting so tall, he is almost taller then me now.
And Josh is almost six foot, They were measuring him on Christmas but I didn't catch what the result was.
Here is a picture of me and Joe... I let Josh take the picture and he was having trouble with figuring out how to get the picture... I guess I forgot to inform him that you have to hold the button till it snaps. Oh and Rachael escaped before I could get on of just her.
I did get a good one of Henry, wearing the present I got him.I know that she will be yelling at me later today but here is a cute one of Stephanie. And I didn't get one of Jonah because the poor baby was sick and didn't get to come back for dinner with Stephanie, I forgot my good camera at Joe's.
I got a cute one of mom, Henry and AJ goofing off together.
And dad pretended to smile for me to get a nice one of him.
My Joe helped me get a few pictures. I thought this was a very cute one of mom and me... minus the bunny ears :-P.
And since we haven't had one of these in a long time. Joe also helped me get a very nice picture of the whole family... We got several but there were heads in front of other people for the other three.
Over all I think it turned out very well.

Lots of Pics today

So I know its been a while but here are some pictures from my Birthday and Thanksgiving :-)
Next to me is the present that Joe got me along with his amazing wrapping skills. I thought i was a good present wrapper till I saw his gift to me :-P.
So I realized today that I have not put any pictures up of my handsome and amazing boyfriend, Joe up. This is one of the few pictures that we have together, usually because one of us is behind the camera and don't like other people touching ours :-P.
Yes you guessed right, he took this one of us :-D.

Here are some of the ones i got on Thanksgiving, Rachael actually let me take a really good picture of her :-)
Here is Beka Right before dinner waiting out of the way for everything to be ready.
Here is Ben Jonah and AJ all together
So as most of you know I was taking pictures for Stephanie's Christmas card for her here are some of my favorites, most of which didn't even make it on her blog :-P.
I thought these two were cute with Jake and Beka, they came along to help and i ended up having a vision :-D
I think Jonah's face looks so cute, he was laughing at Steph and me.
And this is one of the last few we took the poor baby was so tired but he just looks so cute staring out at the water... you cant tell but he is in the middle of crying since we woke him up
So here is a picture of Joe's and my Christmas tree with all our presents under it.
It looked so much like a Charlie Brown Christmas tree before we decorated it
Hopefully I'll be able to get more pictures for Christmas. :-D

Better late then never

So these are the pictures from Stephs birthday. We all went to Vitos for her birthday it was a very fun night.I got some very adorable pics of Steph and Jonah. And my Joe helped me fix my laptop so i can now share them :-).
Here is Jonah and daddy Joe playing at the table.
And Jonah With grandma :-)

I figured if i put to many pics up of Steph she would shoot me and im to young to die :-p.

Child Labor Laws

Ok so this is a typical Saturday morning for me and Kiera we tell Alex his chores and force him to do them before allowing him to do anything else... Lol ok or not... I was cleaning the bathroom today and Kiera was vacuuming so Alex was following me and wanted to help me clean the toilet. I'm not complaining :-P

I'm sure that there must be some sort of child labor laws that prohibit this. But at least he is having fun.

But at least its not all work and no play.

He wanted to help clean my bathroom but wanted to play instead of help clean his own playroom. Kids these days... or just normal 2 year olds

But at least he was entertained on the horse instead of pulling out the rest of the toys as we cleaned them up

Cutie

I went to dinner with my favorite sister last night and her husband and my nephew Jonah. Isn't he the cutest baby you have ever seen. I think so!!!

Rainy Days

So it does rain in Arizona. We took Alex out in the rain for the first time on Sunday. He liked to watch it but really didnt like being in it. He kept going out to the edge of the patio then stopping before he hit the rain it was so cute.

We tried to get him to go out on his own and almost did a few times. This is Kiera trying to convince him to stick his feet out in it but he wasnt having it.

And this was just the cutest picture of them. He was so cold but he didnt want to go back in after words.

One day he will relize that rain in Arizona doesnt come enough.

People Suck

So last night at 11 PM i get a call and find out that some one threw a rock through our window. We don't know who or why since we just moved in. The only guesses are that it was the neighbor that was riding Kieras ass and swerved around her because 35 MPH isnt fast enough to drive through a neiborhood, who we found out lives 4 houses down from us. Or the cops theory that some one does not like how loud Neil's bike is and was actually trying to hit that and missed and got the window.

So this is the rock that they had thrown its huge and we dont know where they found it cause no one has these in their yards.
Piles of glass..

More glass...

But at least the landlord should be fixing it soon.
