This is hilarious!

Here it is...

This is about the closest we've ever gotten to getting Kinley to smile on camera:

And here's just a funny one:

She rolled over today! I missed it because I was talking to the cable guy, but when I turned back around, she was on her face! She's been sitting up a lot in her Bumbo chair too. We got her an exersaucer for Christmas and she'll no doubt be ready for it!

I've been making Finn play outside a lot lately since the weather is still warm. He has a huge box of chalk that he loves to draw with outside (thanks Leah and Noah!). He's definitely a righty! Kinley might be a lefty though, she is ALWAYS chewing on her left hand! Anyway, I was trying to think of ways that I could teach Finn Spanish. He is just such a sponge and absorbs EVERYTHING! He already knows how to count in Spanish and I don't even know where he picked that up (Dora I guess, but we haven't even been watching it lately). I think I'm going to focus on teaching him Spanish words this winter and also on letter sounds and recognizing words. He already knows most of the letter sounds, but I thought I would start pushing the letters that words start with. It's so amazing how much he loves reading! He always has! Starting when he was about 1, he began recognizing all the letters and loves any toy or book that has to do with the alphabet. Anyway, I don't mean to go on about it, but I just wonder if it has to do with the fact that I've read like a maniac to him since birth, or if he just would have liked it anyway? It's definitely his "thing."

Here's a couple more cute pictures! I love Kinley's Christmas tree bow!:

My little elfykins!

Here's Kinley in her little elfin costume:

And here she is, sucking her thumb! I caught her doing it today:

My son, the tube-head

Today, Kinley, Finn and I were sitting around talking about how much we love each other. I said, "Bubba and I sure love Kinley." Then I turned to Finn and said, "Kinley and I sure love Bubba, too." Finn patted me on the arm and said, "I love you too Mama." Before I could even say, "Aw, thanks, Bub," he was running across the room to the television yelling, "I LOVE TV!" At least he only hugged the set rather than turning it on! LOL!

Our Christmas Tree

Finn's Eye View

Finn loves to grab the camera. This weekend he actually took some pretty cool pics! It's neat to see things from his point of view.

Thanksgiving in Pictures

Scott cooked, I cleaned, and we all had a great time! This Thanksgiving has made me think more than I've probably ever thought about how grateful I am. I am so glad I started taking active steps to being more postive and optimistic a few months ago. I now know I am truly blessed and how lucky I am!
