Here comes Santa Claus . . . the REAL one . . .

We are so lucky that the REAL SANTA comes to B@ss Pro in Garland every year . . .

 Ready to see Santa!

 I think they are rubbing off on each other . . .

 Trying out some fun toys at B@ss Pro . . .

Tired Princess. . . 

Oh Christmas Tree . . . I shall crawl to you . . .

Well, the Christmas Tree went up on Thanksgiving up and it gave Jori the motivation to crawl . . . she took one look at that tree, and decided she MUST get to it any way possible . . . she started with rocking . . . and little by little . . . within a week . . . she had mastered the art of crawling . . . and pulling things off the Christmas tree.

Jori - 8 Months

OK . . . so I am VERY behind in posting pictures!!!  We have had such a blessed year and Jori has filled our lives so much that I just don't seem the time to post much!  I like that problem a lot!!! :-)  Here is a picture from the day she turned 8 months . . . 

At 8 months my princess is:

- sitting up all by herself

- wearing 3-6 month clothes

- weighs about 14.5 pounds

- sleeping from 8:30 - 7am

- loves baby mum mums

- still has no teeth

- loves to explore everything!

A time to be Thankful . . .

A few pics from the week of Thanksgiving . . . we are so blessed . . . .

Jadon's Thanksgiving Feast at his school . . . I love this and I remember doing it as a kid.

 Turkey Trot Day!

 Mommy and Jori were able to take part in the Turkey Trot as well!

After the Turkey Trot we went and visited daddy at the fire station.

 Jadon was able to try out the hose . . . there are some perks of having a daddy firefighter!

 Silly little face . . . 

Family Pictures!

We went to the park today to take some family pictures!

Thanks to Stephen's mom . . . we got the family pics . . . when you are a photographer . . . you rarely get family pics with you in them . . . so thank goodness that I can call on her!  I took the pics of the kiddos . . . enjoy!

We started off in the front yard with Jori . . . I knew while she was happy, cooperative and smiling I had to get some pics while I could . . . here is the sweet princess!  Notice what she started to do TODAY!!!  She is sitting up . . . well at least for a few seconds at a time . . . enough to get some pictures!!  YAY Jori!!

Jori - 7 months

 My silly crazy boys!
