We love McKenna


We had a great Christmas at my mom and dad's house. It was so nice to be able to get outside and enjoy the country. Glade and Addison had a great time chasing each other across the floor. They have wood floor so it was easy for them to scoot around. Glade learned he could pull himself up to standing. Now he wants to stand up all the time. We all had a good time just being together. Grammy and Pappy had lots of fun playing with all the kids. I'm sure they are enjoying a quiet house now- no one to wake them up crying in the middle of the night.
Pappy made sure Glade and Addison got to enjoy all the goodies. They both got lots of tea, mashed potatoes and CHOCOLATE PIE!

Growing too fast

Glade and Addison are growing too fast. Today I went in to get them up from their nap and found Glade sitting up chewing on the top rail of the bed. So, now we have to raise the side of the bed. That was this morning. This afternoon they both woke up and I was finished something up so they were in their beds awake. I could hear Addison laughing and squealing...I went in and she was just looking at Glade and laughing. Addison was laying on the floor next to Glade when Glade decided Addison needed to chew on his finger, so he stuck it in her mouth. She just laughed! They are getting to be so much fun. Glade is going everywhere, he really likes to get the sweeper I have and play with it. He found the presents under the tree.


Last night we opened presents with Glade and Addison. They had such a great time with the paper. They really like the toys too.

Here's how I found Glade after his nap

I put them together in Glade's bed they are so happy!

Glade has started eating crackers
He found a pen and decorated his face
Glade's present from Santa-he loves it!
Addison's present- it is a train with animals, but she really likes the wheels
We will be going to Wimberley to spend Christmas with my parents, so I may not get to post more pictures until later next week!
Have a safe and merry christmas!

Fussy Face

Glade woke up at 4:30 this morning. His nose is very congested and he was having trouble sleeping with a stuffy nose. I used the sucker to try and help, well, he didn't like it. This is what happened when I got ready to use the sucker again! After getting over the trauma of the sucker, he was able to sleep in the swing. He is doing better today, hopefully he will sleep tonight, Tim and I both need a good night's sleep!

Big Bath Tub

Our babies have graduated from the sink to the big bath tub. I have to say they loved it. Addison splashed away, she got us all wet! Glade enjoyed it, but he is still not feeling well, so we will see what he does when he is back to normal. I am guessing he will splash just like Addison did. I had to change clothes after the bath~I got a bath too I guess!

Look at us...it's a big bath tub!

Day trip to Abilene

We left early Saturday morning to go to Abilene. We had a great visit, but it was a LONG day driving there and back. The babies were good, but they were pretty tired and fussy on Sunday. Now, they are both sick. More than likely they just caught a bug. They are both running a fever and just not their normal happy selves. Hopefully they will be better tomorrow. We are staying home and relaxing.

Hopefully they will back to normal tomorrow. I haven't gotten many pictures of them smiling. They just don't feel good today. I'm off to bed, before one of them wakes up!

Lots of pictures!

It's been awhile since I posted. We have been busy! I had a great girl's night for my birthday. My mom, sister and I went shopping last Friday and Saturday and we spent the night in a hotel. It was so much fun. I ate too much and spent too much...it was a successful trip!


Here are some pictures of the babies...some are from the night with Daddy and Pappy and others are just cute ones that I want to share from the last few days!

Addison helped me open a present.She was so happy about the paper

That's all for now! They saw Santa today at preschool, so I hope to get that picture soon. Glade didn't cry until Addison started screaming, then they both were screaming.
