ellee's "tandy" house

I was in Costco with my Mom last week and they had their Ginger Bread Houses out!  I had to snag one.  This is the first year that Ellee is old enough to do stuff like this!  So much fun!
Last Thursday after we saw Santa, I brought the Ginger Bread House out for her to decorate.  She got so excited when she saw all the candy!  She spent a good hour and a half decorating.  And of course half of it ended up getting eaten before it even made it onto the house! Best ten bucks I've spent in a while! :)  Here are some snapshots of the decorating process!

 decorating "tandy" houses take so much concentration!

 so proud of her finished house!

Santa!

We went and saw Santa a week ago. As you can see from the pic Tucker was not phased by sitting on the strange man with a beard's lap! On the other hand that was not the case with Ellee!  Like last year she would go nowhere near him. We were able to get a pic with her on it, but Shayne and I had to be in it also. We wont be sharing that one! Next year I think Shayne and I will make sure we are presentable before we see Santa! ;-)

I'm back!

Life has been busy!  I had all these plans for a summer re-cap post in September, but as you can see that didn't happen!  I have decided to skip that.  I am hoping to get some highlights up as I go through pictures from the Summer, Fall, and now Winter.  We will see though, no promises. :)

So.... now that Tucker is 6 months old, I thought I should probably make time to start posting again.  I'm hoping to post regularly, but between working full time and being a full time mom I don't get much free time!  But, I will try! :)

Here is Tucker at his 6 month well check.  His current stats are: 14 lbs 8.5 oz (5th percentile), 27 inches long (32nd percentile) and 41.2 cm head circumference (3rd percentile).

He is our Perfect, Healthy, Baby Boy!

He is babbling, sitting up, playing with toys, eating solids, smiling up a storm and giggling at all the silly things his big sister does!  We are so blessed with 2 beautiful, healthy kiddos!

Well, I guess that is it for tonight.  Stay tuned for some holiday posts! :)
