Lacy and Lily

        When Lacy was first born we were sure she looked just like her brother. 

But now that the newborn puffiness is gone, and after looking through pictures of Lily as a baby, we think she looks like her sister too!

This is Lacy...

And this would be her big sister Lily!

 And here is a picture of Jack...

Lily!

What do ya think??

One thing is for sure...

these two lucky gals have an awesome big brother who loves to take care of them!

December!

 We got to start off the month with a birthday party from uncle Ky.

It was so good to see Grandpa after almost a year and a half!

We've been enjoying some fun holiday activities!

...well, most of us. :)

 

Jack just finished up his baseball season, and we're on to basketball in January!

 We've been enjoying Lacy's little smiles. 

She's such a happy little gal.

Jack and Lily sure love taking care of her.

We even found Lacy a new sitter!

John ran his first half marathon! 

Jack and Lily were cute little cheerleaders!

 

Jack got to had daddy his medal as he came across the finish line!

 

 And since we have a new little addition to the family, we had to get some new family pics!

Life has been great. Jack and Lily can sure be little turds at times, but hey, they keep us entertained!

( I got out of the shower and could hear Lily yelling, "It's raining!" I went outside to find Jack spraying Lily with the hose. She loved it, despite it being a brisk 60 degrees outside).

AND.

We were just saying how Lily's hair has become so beautiful...

and then she decided to take a pair of scissors to it. 

It's not horrible. 

But I'll miss having it down like this for the next few months!

Kids.

November Nonsense

I realized I haven't blogged since Halloween... whoops. Here are some of the things we had going on in November!

Lily is still enjoying preschool and all of her new little friends!

John ran the Mustache Dash, for which he grew his stache out all month long!

After the race, there was a mechanical bull that Jack and John had fun attempting. :)

Taking a carriage ride with Santa!

Grammy came for a visit and enjoyed loving Lacy!

 Lacy had her first Thanksgiving! She's such a sweetie. :)

Grammy watched the kids while John and I had a much needed Black Friday date! Best date nite ever!!

Happy Halloween!

We're so excited Lacy arrived in time to celebrate Halloween with us!!

She was our little Jack-o-lantern this year.

Jack and Lily went as Peter Pan and Tinkerbell

Dad took the kids out trick-or-treating while mom and Lacy held down 

the fort and handed out candy! We got lots of funny questions from the kids like 

"is that a real baby or a prop?"

Dad carved a jack-o-lantern with the kids after school on halloween!

Jack and Lily were very fascinated with the pumpkin guts.

Jack has taken an interest in decorating our house for the holidays.

He put up some Halloween decorations and he's already started on Thanksgiving!
