Snow Fun

Gus and Abi watching me fight with the snow to make a mini snow man :o)
Yes, he is on the back of my car but we was crunched down into the layer of ice over the snow so he wasn't going anywhere (atleast that's what John said...I was at work!'

John's drive on his way home...
Amazing!

Abi liked finding sucking on the ice
The St. John's Bridge. We drive over this everyday. It's GORGEOUS!



Our house in the snow
my mini snowman :o)
Going down the tube slide...nothing but ice

Grandma's visit and some really cute kids!

Always getting into something!
Taken today...eating mac n cheese...(I like the shell pasta stuck to his left cheek!)
With grandma in front of the Christmas tree

December snow!

So on December 14th, 2008, we woke up to snow. It pretty much snowed the entire day...and Abi had a BLAST!

Snow angels on the deck...

Going down the playstructure slide...Now checking her butt to make sure it didn't get to wet LOL

My baby is 5 today!!!!

So for Abi's 5th birthday, we decided to go to 'Build-A-Bear Workshop'. This was a great idea because there were only a few kids and she is ALWAYS begging to do a bear when we walk by. So, with a few friends from school, we had an amazing time!
Picking out what bear/animal we are going to stuff...
Getting ready to stuff the bear...
Stuffing the bear and passing the cupcake...
Giving the bear a heart and strength...
The group picture...

Build-a-bear ice cream cake...not done by me :o)
Getting ready for cake and presents!

Send a card of thanks!

a few more pics from the cell phone...

John takes lots of pictures of the kiddos while I'm at work...since I work such weird hours, I really miss my babies!

While I'm at work, Gus gets what he wants...
Because if not, John has to deal with this....

If only he was like this all the time :o)


Asleep in the car LOL

Gus has learned to play peek-a-boo...daddy was very proud!

Gus playing with the dog door...

Abi and Lydiaalways climbing on something now!
always


What a handsome little man!

Trick or Treat

Belle and the Bumblebee

NO MORE KISSES SISSY!!!

Mr. Bumble Bee (need to get the other pics from my old laptop, but Abi and Gus look identical in this outfit!)Look at all that padding :o)

Waiting at Toys R Us to go trick or treating...it's fun because they get stickers and coloring books and a really cool 'earth friendly' trick or treat bag thats better then anything you would actually pay for!
