We are back!

Gwen talking on her cell phone and pushing her baby, that girl can multi task.
First cup of hot chocolate or as Gwen calls it coffee. Where does she learn this stuff?

Posing!

Dress up night at the gym and Grady could not get enough!

I could only convince Gwen to get in one outfit. Not at all what I expected. She is too busy riding the bikes like a big girl.

Snow!

Just the perfect amount for Gwen and Grady.

Update

Gwen passed out in the car on the way home from the doctor. Poor girl keeps getting sick.

First movie Puss in Boots. Grady started by meowing every time a cat was on screen. The two older gentlemen in front of us just loved that. After about 10 minutes he said bye bye. The bribing began with suckers and m&ms, but only lasted about 50 minutes and we had to leave.

All dressed up!

Grady's new big woof. Barely enough room for the two of them in bed.

Gina came to visit us. Grady and Gwen enjoyed having some new life around the house.

Christmas!

The looks on the kids faces as Santa was coming in the room. They were beyond excited. Probably the biggest day in their lives so far!
Cheese!

M&M face

Sibling love!

Gwen and her new ruff.

So excited to be with Santa.

Finally sitting on Santa's lap, but mommy had to go too.

The school bus is an old gift that keeps on giving!

Dog, check, jewelery, check, heels, check, major mistake by Santa, check

Cheese!

Checking out my new scooter.

Santa came!

The kids had a great Christmas. They received more gifts than they needed and ate too much candy and cookies, it does not get much better than that. They were very excited that santa was able to visit the house. They were hesitant to sit on his lap, but eventually they did (with some help). They promised me next year they would sit on his lap. The excitement in their eyes as he came and left was priceless. They are already asking for mo Santa and I told them next year after their next birfday.

One of Grady's many fits he is throwing. Typically they are related to eating, putting on his coat/shoes/clothes or going to the bathroom.
Open Gym Christmas Party!

Grandma came along to help. Grady is 2 bits in the cookie he decorated, by the time I turned to Gwen to take her picture with her cookie, it was all gone.

New artwork in the Worthington Rec Center!

Grady was not too sure about Rudolph's nose.

Finger painting!

A little closer to sitting on Santa's lap!

Trip to the zoo with our friends!

Daddy's got this!

Santa!

We visited Santa early this year since Neal is having surgery this week. The kids were excited to see Santa, that is until we actually saw Santa. They completely froze.

They would not sit on Santa's lap, so Santa was kind enough to let Gwen and Grady sit in his seat. Unfortunately Gwen did not get to tell Santa she wants a baby doll and Grady did not get to tell Santa he wants a blue truck, but I am sure he already knows that! And yes, Gwen insisted on carrying her purse around the mall tonight. After Santa we headed over to Build a Bear and the kids got to make Ruff 2 and Ruff 3.
