December, SinterKlaas, lots and lots of SNOW!!!!!

 We did sinterklaas with the kids on dec 5 and it was a surprise for them! It sure was fun!

 She had fun opening the presents too!

 What is it Leanna?

Little poeple doll house! 

All the kids got a new spin toothbrush! 

 What did you get Caden?

He got a new watch, since he can tell the time! 

A new purse for church for her candies and money! 

They also both got a new bible and cover as well.  

 Janelle wanted a picture since they were sitting the same! They were holding hands and Leanna decided that she didn't feel like it!

 A few winter decorations to brighten the house during the short days.

 Its dark for so long and it sure adds some cheer to the house! I love the lights!

 Janelle was getting ready for a shower and I found Leanna trying her underwear on as a hat. But not happy for a picture.

 Well we have been having so much SNOW lately. Its crazy and it just keeps piling up!

 Thankfully Richard purchased a skidsteer and has been able to keep the year clean.

 The fence that Richard built in the fall.

 Keep the path cleared.

Leanna's new stander and walker!

 We recieved Leanna's new walker and upright stander and so the kids had fun with the big box for quite a while and all the bubble wrap. As an adult I still like popping them:)

 so fun!

 

 Here she is in it. She is forced to stand in proper position and gives her the proper posture. They would like her to be in there for an hour and she is usually in there for about 1/2 hour to 40mins. She gets tired of it and says "I come out, owie feet." She does do quite well especially if I bribe her. She looks so tall when she stands in it too. She can color in there, read books do puzzles and have snacks and even watch Dora:)

 Dad needed to set it up.

 

 Looks beautiful with the fresh snow.

 I love our home:)

 Her new walker. It is quite a big contraption and it takes alot to get her to walk. Richard does way better with her than me. She does better for him too.

 Its going to take alot to get her to learn to walk.

 Angie took some family pictures for us back in september and these are the results. She was in a bit of a rush, but with that being said they turned out pretty decent. I was happy with them, and so I can update our frames and give a new family picture out again. Crazy how much the kids grow up in 1 years time. Crazy how much I have blogged in the last two days. But just trying to play catch up seeing as I think this was the second time I blogged this year!

Finally I blogged again:)

 Playing the new game Caden got for his birthday!

 

 Having some good times with the family:)
