Glass Ornaments and Toddlers Do Not Mix

We learned very quickly yesterday that glass ornaments and sweet little boys do not exactly mix well. Trey was carefully overseeing the unpack of the Christmas Ornaments. As we took our special ornaments out of their individual boxes Trey decided they needed to go back in the bin. That's when we heard it! That *POP* that could mean only one thing, a glass globe ornament just broke. Luckily, it was still in it's packaging with all of it's matched so clean up was very simple. With a child who loves to play toss we decided to only put our special ornaments on the tree this year. Let's just say we have no desire to clean fine shards of glass out if the carpet this year.

Friday morning was a 4am rush to Toy R Us to help Santa pick out a swing set and a Power Wheels Li'l Kawasaki Sport. Trey was lucky and slept in waking up just in time to enjoy a lazy morning before going out with Mommy.

Happy Thanksgiving!

We had a fantastic Thanksgiving! The morning started off with haircuts for Warren and Trey. Then Auntie Christie, Uncle Steve and Lauren join us for an afternoon full of food and football. It was so nice to spend Thanksgiving with our dear friends and Trey absolutely adores Lauren. Warren setup the projector so we could watch the game which wasn't too bad on our textured green walls. Woohoo Cowboys!!! Boy did we have a spread, it was a pregnant woman or two's dream. Let's see if I can remember everything and you definitely HAVE to try a few of these recipes.

It's time for lounging!


Somehow I only captured Christie's feet but nothing else! We need a bumps picture of the two of us.

Now back to lounging with my two fav. boys! We have a 4am Black Friday wake up call in the morning. Yay for 50% off swingsets!!
