Christmas

We had a great Christmas this year. Justin took lots of time off work so we were able to spend lots of quality time together just hanging out.

This picture was from Thanksgiving.

Kabella is in love with the Kangaroo Zoo so of course we had to go there while Justin had time off work. Macoy was afraid of it at first, but finally warmed up to the idea just when it was time to leave.

Santa checking to make sure Kabella is asleep before he puts the gifts under the tree.

Macoy's great attitude x-mas morning...

The kids each got their own cell phone so now they will hopefully leave mom and dad's phones alone!

Kabella sportin' her new christmas dress and coat.

Macoy's 1st Birthday

At Macoy's 12 month checkup he was 31 3/4 inches and weighed 23 lbs 11 oz. Watch out Kabella, Macoy is catching up to you fast!

Macoy had a fun-filled first birthday!

I made him is own cupcake cake. I guess I needed more frosting in the middle to make it stick together better.
Getting so big too fast.
My little big man! :)

A few quick picts

Here are a few quick pictures of the kids. Summer went by so quickly and Macoy's first birthday is almost here! Yikes, I better start thinking about what I'm going to be doing for the party. Anyhoo, Kabella loves playing with our next door neighbor Avery. They love playing dress-up and then dancing in their beautiful dresses.

We took the kids out on a boat for the first time. Our friends, Tom and Misti, were kind enough to invite us along for a ride out on Utah Lake.

Another thing Kabella loves to do is color. She always wants someone to color with her. I guess it was Dad's turn. :)

Summer Fun

Here are a few pictures of the kids having some summer fun. Macoy is 9 1/2 months old, has 8 teeth and can crawl like a mad man. His new thing is crawling up the stairs when mom isn't looking! Kabella has been doing really well with the potty training and loves playing outside with her friends.

This summer we went to the zoo for the first time. If it hadn't been so hot, I think it might have been a little more enjoyable.

Kabella and Macoy are both huge fans of the popsicle. They always make a huge sticky mess, but it's worth it!

It's been awhile...

Since I haven't posted for awhile, I will try and catch up. Macoy will be 7 months old tomorrow. He already has 6 teeth and is starting to crawl across the floor army man style. Kabella loves being around him and they make each other laugh all the time! Kabs is in the process of being potty trained and does pretty well when she wants to.

The inevitable finally happened...We took Kabella to Cabela's. She was so naughty there! We couldn't keep her from running around like a crazy lady, and she kept trying to climb into the exhibits. I was pretty tempted to just leave her there!

This picture looks like Justin and the polar bear are playing catch with Kabella! :)

My two cheesy kids.

My cute little family on mother's day.
Here is a 4 generation picture of my kids, Me, my mom and my grandma Stanger.

Guess Who's Two

On March 3rd, Kabella turned two years old! We sure love this girl!

We went to St. George last weekend to spend some time with Devan and Lexie. Ty and Macoy are best buds.
Double Trouble!

Macoy 4 Months

Macoy turned 4 months old on Valentine's day, and he is quite the little sweetheart! At his appointment he weighed in at 16 lbs 8 oz and was 26 1/4" long. He is recovering from RSV and Kabs is recovering from the flu and a nasty cold. It's not fun to have sick kids, especially when you are sick yourself! We are all doing much better now.

Macoy started rice cereal. He doesn't seem to love it quite yet.
Kabs is "helping" me make Justin's birthday cake.
Just a little sugar goes a long way with this girl!

Daddy and "Big Mac"
The other day I was sorting through some clothes that a friend gave me (Thanks Molly) and Kabella pranced into the kitchen sporting this fancy outfit. What a character!
