Santa's Helpers!

I was pulling out some Christmas decorations today and the boys were "helping" me. For some reason, when they help me the only thing I really end up doing is answering a LOT of "why" questions! When they saw the Santa Hats, they had to ask what they were, why they were red, why it had some white on it, and why one had some green leaves on it.My simple answer......"It's cute, so put it on and let Mommy take some pictures!"

They love getting their picture taken, so I had a break from the non-stop questions as long as I took pictures non-stop!

Elephants in the House!

Last Saturday, we all sat down for a nice breakfast together. After I ate my breakfast, I decided I still wanted to have a Christmas orange. Now...when I peel a Christmas orange, I have to make an elephant out of it.

The boys just loved it! (after we showed them how it kinda resembled an elephant!) Suddenly the boys were hungry for an orange too, and they politely requested that their orange would be peeled like an elephant too.
And you know Daddy.....he just had to be in on the action! (am I the only normal one in this family?!?)

I'm sure that most of you are wondering why I have my camera with me at breakfast. Well, you just never know when you are going to capture that funny/perfect/memorable moment!

Have some fun with your family today! (go ahead....make an elephant. You know you want to!)

Winter's Here!

You know winter has arrived when you can make your first snowman. Yesterday there was enough snow on the ground, and the temperature was just right for Mesele and Abinet to build a snowman!They rolled the snow and ended up with a cute little white man!

I know.....PRECIOUS!

Fancy Footwork!

One of my favorite reality shows is "Dancing with the Stars." I'm sure that some of you are mocking me now that you know that, but that's okay!

Tonight when I was watching, the boys wanted to see some of the dancing too. As soon as the music started, these boys just couldn't make their feet behave! They HAD to dance!

They tried watching the dancers to copy what they were doing but that proved to be just a little bit too difficult for them.

Instead, they opted to do "free style" dance. It was so cute to watch! Of course their outfits had to be just as skimpy as what they wear on TV!! I'd give them a 10 for this performance! How about you?!?

Mommy's Big Dreams.....

Everyone who knows me, knows that I am a just a little bit of a Rider's Fan! Now that I have two little boys, I have a pretty good idea of what they are going to be when they grow up!!

The other day we were all in the city doing a little shopping and I found this shirt for Abinet. Brent thought it was ugly, but I didn't care cuz the message on the shirt was PERFECT! It says, "When I grow up I'm gonna be a ROUGHRIDER"

Both boys wanted to proudly show off their Rider Pride in this picture! Don't they look good in green?!? I mean......"Green is the colour, Football is the game......"
