Jocelyn.

It's the first of December and we had some flurries this morning! I'm really excited for Christmas this year. It's amazing how much things change when you have kids. Braden is a bit older (turning 3 in a couple of weeks) and understands more now- it's fun explaining Christmas to him, teaching him Christmas songs, yay :)


Today I took some pictures of my niece Jocelyn, she is such a ham. We had alot of fun, took a couple of breaks, and did alot of bribing (ate lots of candy!). I'm her favorite so I can do her hair, and her nails, and keep her attention for a little bit longer :) Here are a couple of my favorite shots.





She has the cutest little boots...She looks so grown with them.


She looks like such a big girl with her hair up.She was being silly and very careful with her nails, which we had just painted during one of our breaks. Love that face! And I love, love, love little girls with big bows.

Random tidbits (mostly so that I don't forget in case I don't get to jotting it down...)- Carter is officially cruising (8.5months)- seriously its going so fast. Braden informed us a couple of days ago that he's in a band- he's the guitar player. He was trying to convince me the other day that he 'had to go be with his band'. I mean he put his shoes on and was trying to get the car keys from Papa. And yesterday he showed up to my room, where I was cleaning up a bit, with a soaked arm. I said "Braden, why is your arm all wet?" Braden said, "Mommy, I had to get the fish out." Yep, he stuck his arm in the fish tank and changed things up a bit in there. Poor fish.

Now i'm hoping that i'll be able to work some magic with Braden when I try to get his shots in the next couple of days. Wish me luck!
