nap time

Yesterday, Lillian took a nap. Nathan never did fall asleep. He was being very good, playing with his trains, helping me in the kitchen, etc. He just loved being the only one up because he knew he got all the attention. But, you could tell that he really wanted to play...with Lillian. She was finally awake but just laying on the couch. He looked at her eyes and excitedly said, "Lillian, you're awake!!!" then ran over to her and gave her a kiss. I just thought that was the sweetest thing.

night night sun

We were at bible study the other night and we were leaving. We were saying bye to everyone. All of a sudden, I see Lillian and Nathan looking up in the sky and waving. They said, "Night night sun, we will see you tomorrow." I just thought it was really cute!

my little cookie monsters

I had the pleasure of having the day off yesterday and spending time with my kiddos. I made chocolate chip cookies with the help of my sou chefs, Lillian and Nathan. As the cookies were coming out of the oven, they both wanted a cookie. I told them that they were still too hot and they needed to cool a little bit before having one. So what did they do? They started blowing on the cookies to cool them off faster. I thought that was so funny so I decided to write it on my facebook. As I was writing on facebook, Nathan comes in with chocolate all over his face saying that he had a big cookie. I laughed so hard. I of course had to get Lillian a cookie because she was in the computer room with me looking at pictures. When Rose got up she had a cookie too. They all seem to like cookies!

We celebrated Rose's 1st birthday yesterday. We had so much fun! Grandma and Aunt Gail came up from Jasper. Aunt Kimmie and Uncle Andy were there too along with mamaw and papaw. Lillian and Nathan had so much fun helping Rose open her toys up. They also had fun eating the cake as well. Rose had her fair share of the cake. My favorite was when they were all asleep in the car on the way home. Note to self...take pj's and change them before heading home.

Christmas 2008

Christmas was fun this year. Lillian and Nathan absolutely loved opening gifts...theirs and others. Rose tried but didn't know what was going on. It was so much fun though.

good morning!!!

The other morning, I had the privilege of waking up to Nathan saying, "Natey have water, mommy!" over and over. I just had to laugh. Usually they come into our room and say good morning and we all get up...but not that morning. It just struck me funny.
