Birthday Money

So, William got $30 dollars from family for his birthday and he wanted to go pick out a toy. We went to Target today and let me just say this was hilarious!!! He wandered up and down the aisles, picking up every toy, looking it over, putting it back, etc.......

I tried to convince him to get some new books for his Tag, Jr. game, but that was not happening! He finally picked a Hot Wheels track thingy and a T-Rex that his cousin, Whitt, had at Christmas. His grand total was $26.65. He put his change in his pocket and as soon as we got back in the car, he asked, "Hey, where's all my money?". Well, well. Teachable moment right there, but, of course, he didn't get it AT ALL!!!! I told him he still had $3, but he still didn't understand it.

Happy 3rd Birthday, sweet William!!!! The party is Sunday--- we will post lots of pictures!!!

More Snow!

We woke up to more snow this morning! It actually snowed all day yesterday, but it didn't stick, so we were surprised to find snow on the ground!!! Of course, this means no preschool for William and I might just go CRAZY with another day at home! It will probably all melt by afternoon, so we will enjoy it while it lasts!

Diet Cherry 7-Up

How fun is this??? Love the pink color and reminds me of cherry limeades from Sonic!

COLD Picnic!!!

We went for a picnic today at a park close to our house. We didn't realize how cold it would be!!!! We were freezing, but the boys didn't seem to mind.

Rewind: Christmas 2009

Christmas Eve (really Dec. 19th) leaving cookies and milk for Santa.
William in his photo posing position! Hilarious!

Christmas morning. We had to do this on a Sunday, so the boys were in their church clothes.

William not as excited about posing this time!

Playing with the new garage!

So, here are some pictures from our Christmas. We had a small Christmas here in Albuquerque before heading to Arkansas and Alabama. The boys (well, William) loved leaving cookies and milk for Santa and William was VERY excited to see that Santa took the carrots he left for the reindeer.

We all had a great visit with family. The boys both did great on the airplane, although I have no desire to do air travel with them again any time soon!

Quick Snow Day!

We woke up to snow Saturday morning. The boys and John went out to build a snowman and it's a good thing they went early. The snow was almost all gone by that afternoon. I'm glad it was a day that John was off to enjoy it with the boys!
