Big Girl Bed!

It's official...Kendra now has her own big girl bed. Her and Colin are sharing a room and they are very excited!!

Vocab...and more vocab!

Kendra continues to wow us with her vocabulary and her full sentences. She usually uses her tenses correctly too. It is so amazing to listen to her talk and wonder where she picked it all up from and when she changed from a toddler to a little girl. On the way home today, she said "Mom, when it rains outside, we're gonna have to put our umbrellas over our heads". Along with this gift of speech...she is also becoming a very skilled negotiator!

Santa Came While we were gone!

He filled our stockings with treats and toys....as requested...A pink cupcake & a Superman suit...and also a pirate ship and barbie washer and dryer! And maybe the most exciting gift of all, the kids each got their very own chapstick!!!! :)

Christmas in Iowa

Early Christmas at home!

Gingerbread Houses!

Santa - first timers!!!

The kids were SO excited to see santa. Colin (of course) had SO many questions for him....where were his reindeer, how did he land without snow on the ground....it was very cute. Official Santa wishes: Colin - a flying suit (to which santa responded by looking at us and chuckling!) and Kendra - cupcakes!
