Elias got some cool Roller Blades

Elias scored him some cool new Roller blades at Good Will the other day. He has been really doing well with learning how to skate in the house..lol. He did take them outside the other day to give them a try and he stayed up the entire time. I hope I can get a babysitter and take him and Eliana skating very soon at the roller rink near the house. I know he will be able to skate much better on a smooth surface. I will try to get some video when we do make it to the skating rink. I can't get over how big my kids are all getting :(

Look Who's Walking

Ethaniel started walking a little before Christmas and wow does he have it down now. Our little guy is fast and into everything now. I bought him some really nice walking shoes for his extremely wide foot. I have noticed him walking even better with his new shoes. I can't get over he will be a year next month. He is so much fun and has made this last year easier to get through with Philip being gone. He is always putting a smile on our face and making us laugh.

Baby Its Cold Outside

I just had to post how cute and funny Ethaniel and his great aunt looked all bundled up to endure the cold winter weather. The funny part is we ended having to take the coat off to be able to even get him in the car seat. I could not buckle him up with this giant jacket. He also could not walk in his big coat...pretty funny!

The many Expressions of Ethaniel

Not a Fan Of The Food

Gingerbread Cookies

Thank you Mimi for the best Christmas treats ever!!! I wanted to share how much the kids each enjoyed the gingerbread cookies. We need the recipe as the kids will need them each Holiday season. I know Ethaniel enjoyed his very 1st Gingerbread cookie very much..lol.

Pictures From November that I forgot

Well I guess I really need to get these pictures of mine organized as I thought I'd posted all the pictures I took in November but just found more. We had my niece came stay with us for a week and the girls had a great time time together. Most of the other pictures are of the kids just being cute around the house. Wow I can not get over how fast the months are flying by. Ethaniel will be a year in Feb. and it has been a year this month since we came back from Africa. Well hope everyone has a wonderful New Year and I know 2011 is going to bring some much needed joy to our family. It is such a blessing to know that our family will be all together very soon.
