Bella misc.

Asher misc.

Watching the dump truck in the front of our house.

Reading books to his baby. He takes such good care of "her."

Playing with "Bebe" and the fridge fun.

Helping Daddy by bringing in the garbage and recycling containers.

The Dairy

We (along with Annalese, Andrea & Brent) took the kids to a small dairy out in the country last weekend. We got to feed the calves and watch the mamas get milked. It was so wonderful!

Bella Stuff

Here it is folks. The long awaited. Bella crawling.

Asher Loves Puzzles

Asher got this puzzle for Christmas (good choice Mackenzie!) and he loves it. He can even do it by himself now.

Lots of Bella

This is Bella just before she learns to crawl. I don't actually have a crawling video yet. I'm working on it.

Boowa & Kwala

They both love Boowa & Kwala now.

Snug as a Bug

This is Bella in the carrier with my winter coat fasten around both of us. (it was cold out!)

It was a fun Christmas with the kids.

Asher's BIG present

As most of you know, Scott built Asher a guitar for Christmas. It turned out beautiful and Asher loves it.

Asher's First Stocking and more

Asher got a stocking full of little goodies this year. It was all new kinds of snacks/candies that he has never tried before. He got trailmix, peanut M&M's, gummy bears, and licorice.
He was pretty excited about all of them but gummy bears are definitely the winner.

He got some snow boots (for all the snow we get around here! :-) )
You can see Bella is giving them an inspection.

Anne Sue, here is Asher opening your present. It's funny because on the wrapping paper you drew a picture of him playing guitar so he was convinced there was a guitar inside! But the box is so little....

Bella's First Present

This is Bella with her first (and only :) ) Christmas present. It was from Asher.

It was a box of Mum Mums (rice crackers that dissolve quickly for babies).

This is her first time eating a Mum Mum. Now she is addicted. She gets the shakes when she sees or hears the package.

Christmas

It's time for some belated Christmas footage.

Playing in Asher's bed (more)

Smilin' Bella

She has such a big mouth. She's just like her father. :-)

Anne Sue - see how happy she is to be wearing your homemade socks! She loves them!!

Happy New Year

Well, it's about time I get back to this blog don't you think? There is so much material that I will be posting chunks at a time over the next few days (which is what most of you request anyhow).
The above picture: Asher has spent hours of his life playing in his chair like this while I'm working in the kitchen. He loves it. Now he has company. Two peas in a pod.
