End of year blur


Wow the end of the year flew by in such a blur.  We started out the holidays by going up to Payson to cut down Christmas trees!  We went with Wayne's siblings and nieces and nephews.  A fun time was had by all.

Cody was obsessed with this small ornament!!

The following weekend we went to look at Christmas lights at a resort Wayne used to work at in college.  We discovered their lights last year and have decided this will be our new tradition!

We had a craft night and made candy cane ornaments for the tree.






We had several cookie baking days!!

We went to a Christmas program at our church with Lori and the kids!!  It was soooo cold that night, which was a bummer because they had so many fun things to do outside.

Christmas morning with daddy!!!
Wonder if they will become Firemen like daddy?!  They loved their new hats.



Christmas afternoon with the Melton side of the family.  




We have gone up to Colorado every Dec. 26- Jan. 2 since I was very young.... Continuing the tradition with our boys.  We spent most of the time sledding and playing in the snow!!

.......Shake N Bake........

These might be difficult to understand but we wanted to share them anyway, they kinda look like little aliens right now. LOL Baby B (aka: Bake) was being very difficult today and did not want to be photographed much. Baby A (aka: Shake) was really liking the photos and we were able to see a lot more of him or her. Everything is looking good with me and the babies! We go back for another ultrasound in 3-4 weeks. :) Baby B (aka: Bake) squishing its head and trying to hide. Baby A (aka: Shake) waving to us

Quick trip

Image
So the dogs and I made a quick trip up to Durango this past weekend to just get out of the heat and hang out at the house. Although I ended up working on the house with my mom and John it was still a very nice weekend. On Friday (after about 4 hours sleep) mom and I delivered an area rug for a client and had lunch & wandered around town with Mickie, it was a very nice day! On Saturday we ended up power washing the whole deck and going to dinner and having margarita's in Bayfield. Sunday morning we got up and after realizing that the rain might just stay away for a little while mom and I re-stained/sealed the deck While we were doing all of this John was laying stone on the three pillars in the front of the house, they turned out awesome! We then went into town and had some ice cream and watched all the bikers. It was hard to come home on Monday, the weather was soooo nice and cool, however Wayne was patiently awaiting for my return and had steaks on! Yummmm!!! Here are a...

Ultrasound Photo Updates

Image
Ok, I turned the photos sideways so that it kinda looks like they are sitting up. (Seems to be the only way my mom can tell so I thought it might help others as well) We are just shy of 24 weeks.... Only about 12 weeks left to go WooHoo!! Wow some days it just feels like it is flying by!!! Guess I better get crackin on the room! We went for a check up today and I was telling the doc that I thought baby B was just kickin up a storm, but she informed me that it could actually be either one because both of their feet are right next to each other. Baby B is definitely the one cutting off my air supply though... sitting right under my breast bone it feels like!! Baby A is sitting farther down so my bladder gets hit with that one. LOL The first photo is Baby A (Shake) I thought it was a nice profile, we had another one of a wave (always seems to be doing that!) but it was a little blurry. Second photo is Baby B (Bake) sucking a thumb!
