Christmas

Christmas this year was so fun. Brylee being on the move tried to open presents everyday. Luckily she only ripped a few before we drug her away from the tree. We finally had to barricade the tree from her.
This was Christmas Eve and so we had moved everything out of the living room to make room for Santa. Whom by the way was barely able to come to our house this year due to the Girl's behavior.

I did not get pictures on Christmas morning but we have a great video of the opening of Presents. Maycee was the funnest to watch this year. She would squill every time she opened a gift and say that it was exactly what she wanted.

This is Christmas night at my parents house. Brylee was playing with Ayson's gift we got him. I think she remembered playing it at our house before we wrapped it.

These are all the cousins in their new jammies that grandma bought. Ayson, Kimberlen, Daisee, Maycee, Brylee and Hudson.

My girls. Typical picture for them, Maycee pulling a face and everyone else looking away.

Ayson, who by the way is a month YOUNGER than Brylee. He is a big boy. This is my cousin Char'lee's baby.

And baby Daisee. The newest member of the family. Hudson is MIA which is generally the case when we want him to sit still for any length of time or hold his sister.

Last but not least the big girls in our new jammies. Minus Desiree' who had to take the baby home before we took this picture. Dustie, Kris, Char'lee, Robin, Jodie and Me.

Look what I can do!

Brylee is now pulling herself up to a supported stand. I am starting to wonder if she thinks she is going to walk before she crawls. She is still just doing the army type crawl and gets around really well that way. I am still not in any hurry for her to become really mobile yet.

Santa

We had a good Santa experience this year. Well besides missing him by 10 minutes when her took his dinner break, but after waiting 50 minutes we got a cute picture. Nobody cried this year which was great. Thanks for coming out Desiree' it was a pretty fun day.

Elmo Grows Up

Eric got tickets through his work to go see Sesame Street's When Elmo Grows up on Sunday. It was really cute but the attendance was low and there was no one around us so Maycee got a little restless and would go and sit by herself. My camera is not the greatest so it was hard to get good pictures. Needless to say we didn't make it through the whole show. Thanks for trying Dad!

Car Seat Covers

I have been making these cute covers as gifts for a few of our friends that have new babies. I am having so much fun doing these that I think I might start taking orders and making them to sell. What do you think? I am kinda thinking just for people by word of mouth. If you want one or need a gift let me know everyone just loves them.

This is a boy one. I did another boy one that was blue and brown but didn't get a picture before I gave it away.

8 month pictures

Now that Brylee is 9 months old I thought it was time to post her 8 month pictures......ok she is about 81/2 months here. No one ever told me that being on time for these types of things was a thing of the past now that there are three. Oh well, better late than never is my new motto!

TRee TiMe

Here is our cute tree. This year we decided to go a little girly. It is mostly pink and purple with a little lime green and a bunch of glitter. Pictures never do it justice, but I may take a few close-ups so you can see the detail. And a big thanks to my mom for the great tree. It sure looks real, now if they could just make them smell.

Turkey

Here is Eric's Turkey that he woke up at 3:30 to put out on the smoker. It was great and super moist. We soaked it for 11 hours in a brine prior to cooking it.
We had a quiet dinner with just my Parents due to the fact that Desiree' had her baby the day before.

Dominos and Butt Cracks

A few weeks ago the girls were playing with the domino's on the tile floor before Dad got home from work. They like to try and make a train that runs into the door so that when he opens it they all tip over. Maycee likes to help a little too much and this night Dad got home before they were done so they took them in the bedroom and spelled things and stacked them up til they tipped over.
It was just so funny to see that both of the girls' butt-cracks were showing as they sat. I couldn't help but take a picture.

This is what Brylee did while they played. She found a cucumber and she likes to play with her crib.
