Movie night

We have lots of things to do and not much time. We let the kids get their pajamas on and watch a movie before bed...aren't they cute! They have been sitting there for over 30 minutes!

Pinkilicious Party!

Madison had her first "kid" party on Sunday morning.

We used the "So Chic" styling salon to paint nails if they wanted, made little name cards with hearts and butterflies, played, and ate pink cupcakes! Madison enjoyed having some of her preschool friends over, and of course loved the attention and the fun new things! Her next big adventure, is Disneyland this Friday!!!!!

Fond du lac

Last Friday we stayed in Fond du Lac with my Mom's side of the family. This is our 11th year doing this, and we all have such a great time. We left around 7:00 on Sat. night, and were thankful afterwards since we got hit with more snow Sunday morning! The girls loved swimming with Daddy, Bumpa, Lauren, and Katelyn. Max enjoyed going in with Daddy, too! Bumpa does great dolphin rides! They enjoyed coloring, playing leapsters, eating (notice Max on Alice's lap devouring the infamous onion dip) and trying out some other toys that cousins brought along. We were proud at how well they all did, and all the cousins get along so well. We will look forward to next year at the Holidome!

Haircuts, funnies, and pics

Madison is proudly displaying a picture she drew. She explained that it was a picture of Daddy when he was a baby! We thought it was super cute, even though it was Mommy who was completely bald until about age 3!

We found the girls wearing new "hats" this morning...they are clean underwear at least!

The girls got their haircuts tonight...took about 8 inches off of Madison's, and a good 4 off of Macy's. They both did a great job, and Max did well waiting. It will take awhile to get used to, but we love it!

Valentine's Day!

The kids enjoyed opening pajamas on Valentine's Day! Max liked playing with the handles of his bag the best! After a fun day with Robin, we let the girls change into their "fancy" dresses and went to a dance at Loganville Elementary. The kids enjoyed dancing and the juice and cookies :) What a fun day we had!

HONK!!!!!!

Max started to honk our noses, and then will honk his own...silly guy! It didn't quite work the first couple times, but he didn't give up! Enjoy!

20 weeks

20 weeks along, and doing well! The kids are very excited for baby #4! The big ultrasound is next week, so we'll keep everyone posted...

Bumpa is coming to town!

When I told Madison that Bumpa was coming to town this weekend, this was her expression...priceless!

Superbowl morning

We woke up very excited last Sunday for the Superbowl. Max was in his packer attire right away, the girls waited a bit. Madison even shared her beads with Ginger!!!! We enjoyed a fun time at a friend's house, and even made it the whole game! Is that why I've been exhausted all week? Needless to say, it was an amazing game, and the girls enjoyed saying, "Go Pack Go!"

Fashion show

This was one of 3 videos I made tonight of the girls' "fashion show!" Notice Madison has 3 swimsuits on, and with each show, she would show off another one. Max would go out to dance around every so often. It was a lot of fun, but a big mess to clean up!!!!!!

Wipeout

When I went upstairs, I found this "wipeout" course that Madison and Macy made! I was able to video their obstacle, and then had a few more fashion show videos!!!! Those two girls are something else!

18 months old!

Max had his 18 month check-up today and is 29 pounds, 12 ounces, and 33 inches tall! Couple more pounds and he'll be the same weight at his 3 1/2 year old sis! Doc said he looks great! He is working really hard on talking, and loves playing with his sisters and friends. He is also a train lover! The other picture is of Max eating dinner...I should say playing with it. He loves being a big boy and using spoons and forks by himself, but ends up very messy and with food everywhere!!! Thank goodness it is bath night :)

More snow!

Just like all across the Midwest and the country, we got lots of snow today and Mommy and Daddy had a snow day! Unfortunately, our snowblower broke, so Daddy had lots of shoveling to do. Luckily we had some neighbors helping with some of the sidewalks to give Daddy a break! The girls loved the big mounds of snow! Later today we had Tara and Elizabeth over with Madelyn, Alayna, Ashlyn, and Aubrey to do some sledding. We all had a blast, however, we wish that it would have been warmer to stay out longer! Ashlyn has a long isicle and is standing in front of the largest pile from Jesse shoveling the driveway...WOW!!!

Robe

Look at him...

More sledding videos...

The first Max video, he didn't get too far...the next, too far too fast apparently!

"Snow" much fun!

Last Saturday we headed to Madison to have lunch to celebrate Nana's birthday. When we got home, it was such nice weather, that we had to go out and play! Daddy worked really hard to make a snow igloo for the kids...he said it was perfect packing snow! We have gotten many comments, especially from kids at school, who love the igloo! Max just liked to lick the snow blocks from inside. We also have some fun sledding videos! Madison and Macy enjoyed it so much, Max, not so much. Maybe still a bit too young for the tube...

John and Michael

John Weekes and his son Michael came to play on a Sat. Max was so excited to have a little boy to play with!!!! They played so well together...we can't wait to see them again!
