Turkey Week!

I am not sure if I have ever shared Lilly's love for hats, but I am determined to start getting photos of everything she makes into a hat. She has used baskets, buckets, cups, washcloths, and this morning her cereal bowl. haha! Here's the next CoCo Channel:
Starting Turkey Week off right wearing her Turkey outfit!
And Bigs loves the piano these days, it is one of the only times you will find him sitting still.
I have some really cute pictures of the kids in these outfits, I will post these later.

Christmas Card 2010


After we got the kids Christmas outfits I knew I needed to try to get them together for a photo. Since getting the two of them in the same photo usually doesn't happen, I was a little nervous. They actually did a great job and I was able to get one that I really like. Here are a few that didn't make the cut :).
The Winner is...

HO HO Round 1

Some of you may remember these photos from last year, (it is still hard from me to believe that I was this big and pregnant last year!)
This year I had high hopes that Lilly would see Santa (or Ho Ho as she calls him) and not be scared - she has been talking about him and when she sees photos of him or books she says Ho Ho, Ho Ho. Well I think it is still going to take a little getting use too.
Biggie sat on Santa Lap and told him everything he wanted this year for Christmas,
Then it was Lilly's turn.
Well maybe next time. Biggie really did like sitting there until Lilly started screaming then he was a little unsure. HA!

Dear Santa Claus,


Well it is really hard to believe it is already that time of year again - time to write Santa Claus! Yesterday the kids and I got out the paints and the catalogs, we picked out some items to ask Santa to bring us and we began this years letter.
While we were waiting for them to dry we made a chain garland and then hung our letters, they were just too pretty to send yet. We are going to let our elf read them and take notes back to Santa for us:). I hope everyone is put on the nice list this year. :)

Birmingham

The kids and I spent last week in Birmingham with Mi Mi, Dzia Dzia and Maw Maw. It was a crazy week but a great week!
Biggie got his first bomber jacket:).
The real highlight of the week was when Dzia Dzia took Lilly and I to see the Disney Princesses on Ice. We had a blast!
Our first stop - shopping.
At first Lilly was a little unsure about what was going on, then Tinkerbell and Mickey and Minnie came out on the Ice and it was like Magic to her! She jumped out of her seat and yelled "TINK" "MICKEY" "MINNIE"
The little girl sitting next to Lilly had a flounder hat on, so Dzia got Lilly her own and of course it came with cotton candy!
Dzia Dzia wore it for Lilly during intermission.


While we were at the show Biggie was having a party with Mi Mi and Maw Maw in his new bear hat:).
We were sad to see the week come to an end but Christmas is not far away and we will all be together again!

A Pig and A Duck


Who would have guested that a Pig and a Duck could be best friends?
Well Add a Minnie Mouse and an Octopus and you have a match made in heaven:). On our way to the Halloween party we stopped by the O'Dea house and had to get some photos of the kids all together. Poor Maggie didn't know Lilly thought trick or treating meant steal someone elses candy! haha
Maggie wised up and held her candy out of reach! haha
I am saving this one for the first homecoming dance Hayden and Biggie go to together haha.

The kids had so much fun on Halloween, I think Pinckney and I had just as much fun! It was so fun to watch Lilly trick or treat and Pinckney made sure that she didn't miss a house! We were excited to join the Jones family along with many others to trick or treat here in Maumelle.
