1. Isaac got his first tooth today!! He is so excited and loves to show it off :) It is just a ripple, but oh, so sweet.

2. Andrew stands in his crib now! Ugh! He is growing up too fast!

3. First night of trying to sleep train the twins...NOT looking forward to it :( But we all need sleep.

4. Sean is loving his new color books; trucks and dinosaurs. He colors and then hangs it on the fridge with tape. Very cute :)

5. Making lists of things to do before selling this place. Closets and paint touch ups are next. Great place, if you know of anyone wanting a new house or rental ;)

Holidays

Here's our "Top 10" of this holiday season!

10. Organizing our house! We will be putting it on the market in the next few weeks, and I need to make sure it is in tip top shape!
9. Alli visited us up here! She came to visit us and some of her old friends on her way to a wedding. We had a blast hanging out, swimming, and going out to eat! Thanks, Alli! (Don't you just love wet socks...NOT!)
8. Andrew is now pulling himself up on things and standing...it is all going way too fast!
7. Isaac is clapping his little heart out and rocking back and forth on his knees. His first tooth looks like it is about to appear any day, too!
6. Sean is in toy heaven :) Monster trucks, motorcycles, Scooby Doo, Playmobile, Pillowpet, dinosaurs, remote cars, light saber...
5. New Year's Eve was spent with a great family at our home. Adults and kids had a blast :)
4. Gave Molly a really fun baby shower with my sisters!
3. Had a great night out at the Jacoby house! We sure have missed them and enjoyed our time.
2. We were so lucky to have been able to spend the holidays with our families! Our kids were showered with lots of love and lots of gifts :) Very magical! Thanks everyone!
1. We started our family tradition of waking up Christmas morning at our house to open Santa's presents and have breakfast! Rocked!

Daddy Time :)

Wow! It is so awesome having Graham around! He cooks, cleans, does laundry, plays with the boys, and still has time to watch a movie with me! I am wondering how I got stuff done without him ;) We are enjoying this time while he is on a break from school. Next semester will be tougher yet, as he will not only be studying for regular classes, but also studying for his first set of boards. Crazy!

We have a CRAWLER!

Yup...Andrew showed us his new trick while Graham was feeding our dogs :) He made his way right to Gus's food dish! Sean, Graham, Isaac, and I were all able to witness this awesome event, which makes it even better! Watch out world!!

Let's Catch Up :)

Wow! What an eventful few weeks we have had!

10. Went to Bentleyville (city of lights). Thought we picked a warm night, turns out the wind was blowing off the lake...NOT warm! We "ran" through the exhibit and were back home in less than an hour ;)
9. That night, Sean woke up sick with the flu :( I have never seen him so sick! It was scary and heartbreaking, Graham and I were up all night with him wishing it were one of us. Thank goodness the twins didn't get it.
8. Snow, snow, and more snow! Sean had fun shoveling and playing with dadddy. His cheeks were blazing red for a long while. The twins have had to buddle up, too. They have gotten some use out of their snowsuits, and hats and mittens!
7. Freddy the Elf came to visit for the month...we spotted some reindeer tracks outside one morning, so now we know how Freddy reports to Santa each night!
6. The twins have learned how to wrestle...thanks to watching the nightly match between Sean and daddy!
5. Andrew now has 6 teeth, sits, and claps!
4. Isaac is toothless, sits, and can really get around a room! He loves to make his way to the tree...
3. Sean entertains his babies by singing, dancing, and bringing them toys.
2. Sean does exercises with me...thanks Jillian Michaels for trying to wear him out...works for me, not for him ;)
1. Coloring, drawing, counting, cutting, and wrapping are new skills added to Sean's resume! He does an awesome job and gets to work on our Christmas calendar every day!
1/2. How could I not mention the Gingerbread Houses! We had some friends over on Friday, and the kids made these houses. Not sure who had more fun...daddy or Sean :)

We are enjoying this time of year and are excited for Graham to be done on Friday for a few weeks! We also can't wait for Christmas!!
