All I want for Christmas is...

My 2 front teeth!! So I finally managed to get some pictures of Devins shiny new pearly teeth. They are so cute....and funny.

Yes, this is a picture of Addie in Devin's bed with him. No, they don't sleep together, but every time he wakes up from his nap, she bolts up to his room and uses a stuffed horse as her stepping stool and jumps into his bed with him. She thinks it is so fun, and he is always excited to see his friend Addie.




So we spent the afternoon on Sunday making some special icecream-cone cupcakes. Addie of course loved helping and eating them!! We dropped a couple off at some friends houses and she must have been exhausted because she fell asleep in te car the minute we drove out into the street and even when we gt home she would not wake up. We brought her in and she just flopped face down on the floor. By how she isdressed you would think it was the dead of winter here, and although normally we do have tons of snow, it is still just brown grass and temperatures of about 5 above. She just loves her snowpants. Reall,y she wears them at home almost every day. She just loves to dress herself. Often her clothes are on backwards. Oh well.
Addie and Benny-the doll- found a new place to hide out.
Dev is so cute. So he is almost 8 months old now. He is growing up so fast. He has been a horrible eater, though you would not know it by his growth chart, and we have always struggled getting him to eat baby food. This past week I started trying table foods just cut up tiny, and not so tiny if they are soft, and he LOVES it. He has been doing great. Now I just have to figure out who do give the freezer-full of baby food to.
What a sweet picture hey!! I sure love these kids. Justin and I made a little slideshow on his computer the other night of pictures of our family from addie's birth to now, and I cannot tell you how overwhelmingly greatful I am for these 2 little monkeys. They are great kids and we sure have a lot of fun together. It is also surprising how much they look alike!! A couple of Addie's younger pictures looked almost identical to Devin. I guess they did come from the same gene-pool. They both have Justin's eyes and my nose.

i love your kiddos. they're so stinking cute. good thing you figured out how to get dev to eat. i hate that transition stage but it sounds like he'll skip the in between and go straight to food. sounds like you guys are having fun and keeping busy!!

ps- your kids DEFINITELY came from the same gene pool. i think they look so much alike. especially newborn.
