Ft Worth Rodeo

Unfortunately Ben was sick for the rodeo, but thankfully Grand was already planning on watching Brooke and kept Ben too. Blake was excited for our undivided attention and it was a great time. Just a few pictures of Blake having fun at the midway. We all enjoyed the rodeo as well with the family.

Thumbs up before the ride, but Brent came off the ride nauseous from all the spinning!

Brooklyn 16 months

Brooklyn's 15th month stats:

Weight - 22 lbs 14 oz - 50-75%
Height - 32 in - 95%

A quick look at what Brooklyn is up to right at 16 months. As you can tell she likes to "help" and loves to get into anything and everything!!

Finding the Cheerio box again and helping herself. At least she was thinking about cleaning up with the broom in hand!

Likes to dress up in mommy's clothes

First Snow of 2011

Wow, I can't believe it's 2011. We had our first snowfall today. Wonder if we will get anymore this winter?? We went to church and it was raining. After service we walked out and it was snowing and had been for awhile. The kids were all excited and could barely sit through lunch. Brooke loved having the snow fall on her on the way to the car after church but that was the extent of her snow experience!

Ben....our neighbors came over to play

The snowman Ben and Brent made. That was it. No accessories

Ben loves snowball fights

After Christmas

Just a few random after Christmas pics. Ben got a game called Screwball Scramble and it's a lot like a miniature mouse trap game. Guess who is addicted to this game and loves to climb the table to get her chance to play. Here is how I found her on a couple of different occasions.

Yes, that would be on top of the Dining Room table.

And on another day looking so proud of herself (please excuse the outfit. Think it was an after dinner change)

Here is our Christmas card door. This is the first year we have hung them all up and I can't tell you how much I loved it! I loved walking by and glancing at all the wonderful friends and family that we have. We are truly blessed!!

Baldwin Christmas

The Baldwin family came over late afternoon on Christmas to celebrate. We had a great time hanging out and enjoyed a yummy dinner. The boys love to play with their cousin Carter!

Christmas Day

We had a wonderful Christmas day! The boys woke up around 7:15 which was great. I was worried it might be an early morning. We played with their gifts from Santa and then went and woke up Brooke. We enjoyed our family time in the morning and did our annual lunch at Humperdinks. What a fun family day celebrating the birth of Our Savior. Happy Birthday Jesus!!

I woke up after Santa had come and took pictures of the gifts he left
