Texas ~ Texas

Here we are!  It's official, we are now in Texas!
Moved in (mostly), boxes recycled (mostly), and everything where it belongs (not even close).
We are all really excited to be where we are and enjoying the new ride of life we've embarked upon.

These are some pictures that I took of my cute kiddos before leaving Utah.  The pics count as their birthday pics since I didn't get the pics taken the before now :) Do what we can, right mommies?

My Kiddos (November 2011)


 My Kiddos Three




Rainee
You started army-crawling at 5 months, and by this time (7 1/2 months) you crawling everywhere, climbing up everything (including the stairs) and eating all food insight.  The only thing you haven't learned is to SIT!  Yeah, you're a doer for sure!  You've started giggling and laughing which is more than I can stand some times.  Your little twinkle in your eyes, the tiny dimple on your left cheek, and your sweet little fingers that LOVE to grab at everything are such a little treat.














Porter  (Birthday Boy!)
What a joy you are to have around.  You play so well all by yourself and your imagination is awesome!  You turned 3 years old this month, you almost weigh 30lbs, and your about 37 inches tall.  You're careful with the words you use and so polite.  You did a stellar job of learning to use the toilet (thank you!) and you're so great at cleaning up every night.



 





Chloe
My big-girl.  You are learning how to write the ABC's, color in the lines, count to 100 and much much more.  You're such a big help with Rainee and always trying to make me or someone smile from your quick wit and humor.
This month you lost your first tooth!  AND you're getting your 6-year molars! My dear, from the beginning you've been ahead of your "time", but please, refrain from becoming a teenager too soon, I need a bit more time to prep ;)

Halloween 2011

(About a month and a half behind sums up my life pretty nicely I think!)

We had such a fun Halloween this year, definitely the most I've ever put into the Holiday :)
Quote from Chloe:
"Mom, do you know that is a girl in my preschool class that told us that her mom (pause) DOESN'T LIKE HALLOWEEN!?! Can you believe that??? If my mom didn't love Halloween, it'd be the saddest and worst thing in the whole world!!! I'm so glad you LOVE Halloween mom, it's just so FUN!"
--ha ha Chloe, if you only knew :)
