What did she say?

Jesse and I found this probably way more funny than it really is.  She is trying to say lasagna, which her dad does really love.  If you knew how much he knows nothing about the word that is actually coming out of her mouth it is extremely funny! Remember we got married in Jamaica and poor Jesse about fainted when everyone and their brother was selling this every where we went.

Getting Ready for Christmas

We are getting ready for Christmas and everyone is anxious.  We picked out our Christmas tree and Daddy cut it down.  It is all decorated and we are hoping that Santa finds it in his heart to forgive us all and bring some presents.  We are also hoping that the new baby makes it's appearance sooner than later so we can celebrate Christmas at home and not in the hospital.  Morgan and Mommy think that 12/12/12 would be a great birthday if it isn't the end of the world. : )  Miranda talks about Santa everyday, this should be the best Christmas yet with the girls, although it will be sad to not be with our families this year. This is our first Christmas ever staying home.  We are trying to talk Daddy into putting up Christmas lights outside, I just like to watch him sweat being up on a ladder, the girls just want lights! That is why I probably won't get any presents from Santa.

Daddy helping with homework, oh brother!

So, the instructions are: The kids are decorating a turkey feather, parents please help your child to decorate their feather with items you have in your home such as fabric scraps, cotton balls, colors, etc.  Daddy looked puzzled for a bit and then the light bulb came on...

Fierce Fairies!

 The girls had an absolute blast trick or treating last night.  They were so excited to get all dolled up and get CANDY!!!  They were very cute and a ton of fun to watch.  Hope you all had just as much fun this Halloween.

Morgan turned 5!

 I have never been so happy to see a birthday come and go.  I was so tired of every morning being asked, "How many days NOW until my birthday!"  I know you are all thinking, you should have gotten a calendar for her to count down the days, well let me tell you, I tried everything, she is relentless.  She is 5 going on 15, she is too smart and has the sassy attitude of a 15 year old.  Morgan had a great birthday though, she had a birthday party at preschool then she and Miranda went to a bouncy house, when we got home she opened presents while Skyping with Papa and Ema.  That Saturday she had several friends over for a birthday party.  She was almost devastated when two of her "BFF's" (yes, that is what she calls them) called right before the party because they were sick.   But we had a blast with her friends that were here.

Miranda likes to sing, not quite as much as Morgan though.  She is very easily distracted as you can see.

Wow, what a busy fall we are having.  I am finished with my real estate courses finally and the girls are keeping me running during the week.  Morgan is in preschool 3 days a week and then she takes piano, tennis, gymnastics and swim lessons.  Miranda has starting going to daycare 15 hours a week and is in gymnastics.  She loves gymnastics but Mom has to be right there for when she decides class is a little boring and takes off down the trampoline or just cuts in front of the other kids because she is sick of waiting.

 Jesse has been using up the end of his vacation time so we took advantage of one of those days and went to a pumpkin patch with the girls.  They loved getting to pick out their own pumpkins and they silo slide.  But mainly they loved chasing the farm cats all over.
