Diaper Baby and Christmas Trees!

Diaper Baby-I am so proud of myself! I made a diaper baby! Kinda like a diaper cake, but a baby! It actually took me a lot longer than I thought it would-it wasn't too awful hard, but harder than the directions made it sound! Anyway, here's my final project...his name is Grinch.




Christmas Trees-Yes, trees with an "s"! We put up our Christmas tree a little bit early this year. Last Sunday we arrived home and our next door neighbors had decorated their house already. Evan was so excited and kept saying "Mommy, it's so beautiful" and then asked if we could put ours up. Being that we didn't have plans for that evening, I caved. You would've too if you'd been there to witness his reaction to seeing the neighbor's house! So, two weeks early, up went the tree and on went the lights and ornaments!





AND since that was so fun last Sunday, we decided to do it again yesterday! Last night we went to my parent's house to help them put up their tree. Here are a couple of pictures from the putting up of the tree at Grammy and Papaw Phil's house!


The sad goodbye! Unfortunately, we had to leave before all the ornaments were on the tree, which was very sad for the kids! Here they are sadly hugging Grammy and Papaw Phil goodbye!

Amanda, I love you and your blog so much! You are an incredible mom and you are going to be so happy you recorded all the little life events that go by too quickly. (Just the thought makes me cry! Where did time go? I miss my babies!) I love you honey - thank you for making me so proud!

You're welcome, mom! I love you, too! It is already sad to look back at the past few months and see how they've grown! I can't imagine looking back on this in twenty years! I hope they still have my blog then. Think of how long it'll get if I can blog for twenty more years! Is that possible???
