Catching Up

Lots to share today...so hang in there with me!

~We spent Saturday in Chicago. My mom, sister, Abigail and I went to "Disney on Ice: Princess Wishes" while my dad and Joel went to the Auto Show. The ice show was lots of fun - Abigail loved it and it was so fun to watch her enjoying everything! Here are a couple of pictures from our day:







~Got Abigail signed up for preschool for next year at Holland Christian. She'll go three mornings a week next year! She's growing up fast!

~I put together a quick layout of the kids jumping in Henry's crib. I wanted to scrap something in an 8 x 10 size to put in one of our frames and had these pics so I decided to put something together. Here's that layout:

~Abigail had her Valentine's Day party at school today...so cute to see everything she came home with! I hope that all the boys (11 boys, 3 girls in her class) loved their Princess Valentines! :)

~I read this on Gina's blog and thought it was kind of funny, so thought I'd do it a minute...

Abigail @ 3 1/2 (almost)



Abigail will be 3 1/2 on February 18...wow! She is getting old! :) She's quite the Princess around here, bossing us around, making us laugh and always doing her own thing. She has really been enjoying threeschool this year and it's so fun to watch her in that environment. Lately she's been into playing "teacher" at home. She's been reading me stories...it's the cutest thing ever!

Henry @ 18 months



Henry is really growing up! He's becoming a big, solid boy - nothing baby about him anymore! He loves to torment Abigail, but loves her at the same time. He really is a sweet boy and it's so fun to watch him grow!

Snow Angel


Here's my newest layout of Abigail. This is from this past weekend, when she and I played outside in sub-zero degree temperatures! We actually had tons of fun! Credits can be seen here.

BRRR!!



It's Saturday afternoon and as I type this it is 8 degrees outside. It feels like -8 degrees though! Brrrrr!!! We have really been bombed with snow and a blizzard...it's miserable out there! Just about everything in West Michigan is closing, so I keep waiting for the call from work saying that we are just going to close tonight. I took the kids out with the intention of dropping movies off at the library. We made it a few miles and then decided to turn around - it was a white out! Pretty scary really! We decided just to come home, stay inside where it's warm and read some books.
