Catching up-Christmas-Jan. 11th

I had the greatest time being off work over Christmas Break. I loved spending time with Stephen, my kids and our families. Stephen found Mitchell's dream come true... The Wiggly Play Center. It is a play center that is all about the Wiggles. Mitchell has been obsessed with the Wiggles since he was about 9 months old. He calls them the Giggles and he knows all of their names. The play center was really cool. It's really better suited for older kids but Mitchell loved being there with all of the Wiggles stuff. Mitchell's favorite part was the stage where you could dance to the Wiggles while watching a 60 inch TV.
In other news... Our house still has not sold and Maggie Kate is sleeping through the night. Here are 70 of the 200 pictures I took over the past month.








































Maggie Kate and her cousin Titus. They are 9 days apart.








Here is how Mitchell decided to use his new Little People farm...




Mitchell has been playing like such a big boy. He loves his new toys that he got for Christmas.


Maggie Kate, Titus, Isaac, and Papa.




Mitchell in his Santa suit. I think this picture looks like a joke.



Weaver and his Baby Kate. He loves her sooo much!



This is the stage Mitchell loved dancing on. He loves to dance if there is music he is dancing.








There is some random kid in our picture he wouldn't move so we just took the picture with him in it.







Henry came out and danced with the kids. Mitchell was terrified of him.




They had this whole little area for toddlers. Mitchell loved it. There were the giant padded blocks that he loved playing with.








Santa and his reindeer.My dad built a Santa sleigh using his gardening wagon. He and my mom dressed the kids up in Santa suits and took them caroling in their neighborhood.





I could not get this picture to turn. ERRR sometimes blogger drives me nuts. This is Maggie KAte with her "lovey" She always has to hold a blanket. She loves to rub it on her face. I wanted Mitchell to have a blankie but he still won't sleep with a blanket. I think Maggie Kate is going to have a blankie she just loves them.




My mom was rocking MK and Mitchell had to join them.






Another attempt at getting a picture of both of my kids. One day this will not be so hard.







Us with my cousin Anni and her daughter Jillian.




This is Mitchell's new picture face. He says "cheese" now and smiles like this if you even say the word picture.


My parents always go WAY OUT on Christams decorations. This year they one the Christmas Light award their city for their Whoville decorations.






















Mitchell and his dog Max.

























If only Maggie Kate's face wasn't blurry.






















Weaver making a mad face.








Maisy's attempt at a mad face.











Weaver and Mitchell love helping my dad work outside.

I love this picture. The boys were helping my dad and Maisy saw that I was about to take a picture so she posed in the background.













Mitchell loves Maisy. She is so sweet to both Mitchell and Maggie Kate







Maggie Kate after he bath. I think she might have curly hair.

So many precious pictures of the 4 cutie patooties! I know you are so glad to have Maisy and Weaver so close by :) Who would have guessed that your mother is an "over the top" kind of woman :)

WOW!! So much to take in...
MK is looking so cute and growing so fast!!
We never took the kids to the Wiggly Play Center and now they are kindof over The Wiggles (so sad, I'M not over them yet...), it looks great!!
Really good pictures and it seems like y'all had a great time.
I am praying for you and Mags that your houses sell. I know it would make both of your lives so much easier...
