Early Christmas and Jax's first Ski Trip

I can't believe that Christmas is only just over a week away! It really sneeked up on me this year. We haven't done ANY Christmas shopping yet so one day this week Brady and I have to get a babysitter and go shopping for the kids. We've just been so busy and overwhelmed with other things.

Mom and Bill came up for a few days to have an Early Christmas Holiday. It was a fun weekend (except for the flood in the bathroom, but that's another story....) They took Brady, Marcus, Jax, Abbie and Micah skiing up at 49. They all had a blast. Jax was thrilled of course, and I hear he did an amazing job for his first time skiing. The teacher told Brady that we are going to have quite the dare devil on our hands, but we already knew that. :) I stole this picture off of Mom's blog since I didn't have one!
(Thanks mom!)

The kids are outside playing with Daddy in the snow. They had a big day of snowy fun planned for today, and then we'll go to Bible Study tonight at Dave and Janelle's. I hear them all coming in now so I should go fix some hot cocoa to warm them all up!
Talk to ya'll soon!
Love, Lani

Vance's Happy 2!

Janelle beat me to posting pics of Vance's Happy 2 so now I have to get my booty moving! :>) I'm such a distracted mommy lately!
Dave and Janelle and the kids came over and helped us make a party for Vancey (last minute). They brought cute posters to hang on the doors and presents for the birthday boy. He had a great time, although for some reason he thinks he's 4 instead of 2!

Snow! ( and then rain)

Well, we got our snow! It was lovely. We had about 6 or 7 inches of snow on Sunday morning. The kids and I went out and enjoyed it because we knew that the rain was coming..... and it did. We were hoping they were wrong. Now our beautiful snow is almost all gone! We're crossing our fingers for more snow toward the end of the week.

Brady is in San Diego this weekend. He'll be coming home tomorrow night!

Tomorrow I have a Doctor's appointment. I can't believe I'm already in the third trimester! I am so not ready to have another baby. :>0

Please keep Brady in your prayers as he works on getting the business going again. Also, please pray for God to provide for the birth of this baby. At this point we are without insurance so we would appreciate your prayers that we would be able to get insurance or that the finances would be provided.

I have cute pics of the kids playing in the snow, I'll post them as soon as I can!
Love, Lani
