~Wow what a year makes~

Look how much our little preemie has grown since last year at this time!~.......crazy how time fly's by. So happy he is part of our family, and I would do it all over again with all the pain, and hospital stays to have this little angel in our lives. Love you all the way to the stars Dillie!!! :) <3

~Oh Christmas Tree~

We had such a good time with the kids picking out the tree. They had a blast running through the snow. Dillie did not know what to think he kept falling in the snow and looking at me. We found the perfect tree and the kids and daddy decorated it and I watched. I am soo excited to watch them at Christmas. I am soo thankful for so many things this year. (My husband, my beautiful kids, my mom and dad, and sooo many of my extended family...LOVE U ALL!!!)

~Kringleville & The homecoming play~

My mom took Cailan and I to see "The homecoming" based on the Christmas story by the Walton's. She was had such a good time and loved watching it. After that we took her to Kringleville to see Santa. I was afraid that she would not like him at first and she went right over to him and sat on his lap. She said to him "HIIIIIIIIIII Santa, I want a Kitchenset for Christmas. She was so adorable and I was so happy to see her smiling and just looking at him in awe. Nana and Papa Sills are going to come to stay with them this weekend so hubby and I can have some time to ourselves at the farm. We are soo excited to spend some time just being husband and wife, and not mommy and daddy for a few days. A few days off makes you better parents I say. I hope all our family has a blessed holiday and a very prosperous new year.

~My little ghouls~

Here are my lil babies from Halloween. They had fun......Cailan was so excited to go she kept saying hey mama I am going to go "mick or treat"......lol.......I took them out early as Cailan still has her cold and it was sooooooo cold last night!!...but she got some good candy and we went an visited our neighbors for a while last night and then they came home and crashed. We all slept great except Dillie wanted to greet the day at 4:55 am.....I can deal with it when he looks at me and smiles with those little toofers!! ENJOY!!

~Round and Round~

Dillie got this race track for his birthday and the cars go around and around on a moving track. Well...........Dillie thought if the cars can around so can I!!!.....he was so cute trying so hard to get his little hiney on it.

~Happy Birthday my sweet boy~

~Escape trick compliments of Dillie.....OREO cookie boy!!~

Well I don't think he will beable to use his walker much longer~~~.....he has learned how to scoot his leg out but does not know what to do with it after this point.

Then watch out world here comes Dillie!!!!...Also he enjoyed a oreo cookie compliments of his sister this morning. Can you tell he loved it!!!! My lil cookie monster!!!!

This little man has such a big piece of my heart.....I love him sooo much and thank god that he is here with us. He had a very scary and long road getting here but I get up everyday and look at that face and I am sooooo in love with him. These pictures I took the other day when he was being a ham and smiling!!

~SOOOOOOOOOOOOOO proud of you~

Brandon had his first football game they won 40-0. Brandon played a lot and he is doing so well and we are sooo proud of him!!!! He is doing such a great job and is giving it his all!!! He sure does look like a big boy in his uniform. I can't believe he will be a freshman next year and that Cailan will be going into pre-school. Time really does fly by when you least expect it to.. WTG Brandon keep up the good work. WE love you sooooo much!!!
