Maw credibles.

Interpretation: I want more Incredibles. Yep, these two are still asking to watch this every day.

the girls.

Jocelyn and Gabriella.

Braden and Gabi.

sleepy face.

Lately I find myself [often] feeling sad and kind of emotional about how quickly Braden is growing. This afternoon when he woke up from his nap, with his sleepy face, I wanted to kiss him and cry. Is that weird? Ok, probably but so what! I hope he never gets tired of his mama's kisses and hugs and lovin [without being the weirdo mom & all]. I love this boy. He changed my life and everything I thought I knew about loving someone.

And no worries I didn't forget my baby who is also very big boy these days and almost 2!

the other day.

Carter was insisting on watching tv with his neck all weird like this..

but I did get a cute shot of his face like this :)

experimental.

When it comes to the kitchen and cooking I stick to what I know. That doesn't say much because I don't know very much about cooking and I don't really like following recipes.

These last few weeks I have been doing the Daniel Fast with the staff and other folks from our church and it has really been a stretching and experimental time. I've had to eat things I would normally pass up and try things I wouldn't normally do and I have learned a lot! And most of our meals have included alot of this...

It's been quite a few weeks and i'm thankful but I surely am ready for my cup of java ;)

Incredibles.

For the last three days Braden has asked to watch the movie The Incredibles. When we allow them, they hop up on the couch and sit next to each other just like this. Love it, love them.

Snow day.

We woke up to this.

[expecting around 12 inches by the time its all done]

So it was a good day to organize, do laundry, play games with the boys..

And of course, build snow forts.
