Standing Tall

Ty is moving around our house like crazy. Super fast. We even lost him one. For about 1 minute. Maybe 2. No, it was only 1. Minimum. He was in our bathroom. Super fast.

Well, now he is pulling up and cruising.

Valentine's Day

Carsyn had a party at school for Valentin's Day. She was very excited about it and talked about it for days. She and Tony picked out some cards for her to give her friends and she worked on writing her name on them the night before.

She needed to make 10 cards. Carsyn was awesome and got her name on about 6. The others may have had only a C or 6 lines for her to write her letters. I was really proud of her concentration. I discretely wrote her name on the bottom of her cards so it was clear who gave them.

The next day I was looking through her bag from school. Lots of suckers and cards. Carsyn was the ONLY student to write her own name on her cards to her friends. Love her!

 

Christmas 2012

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Bedroom Makeover

Carsyn moved upstairs and was a little bit sad about being separated from the rest of the fam. So...we made her room special.

"This is SO cool!"

We did her bathroom too. Again...so cool.

Snowy Christmas 2012!

One little girl was thrilled it snowed. She was a fan of the taste.

 

 

Come on Ride that Train

We returned to the Polar Express again this year. It was another success.

 

We even brought our friends for the first time...Gage, Rylee, Aunt Misty and Ty Ty.

We watched a little Christmas show before we boarded the train.

We saw Santa on the train.

Despite the photographic evidence to the contrary, Gage enjoyed meeting Santa.

Ty was less excited, but is always so calm he just took it all in.

 

Let's Go Fly a Kite

After Thanksgiving Aunt Misty surprised Carsyn and Gage with cool kites!

This is how we spent our Black Friday. I highly recommend it.

 

Carsyn was a rock star at flying her butterfly kite. Once we finally got it up in the air. We had a few technical difficulties to over come first.

 

Daddy even made it to town in time to help baby girl fly her kite.

Look What Fancy Nancy Makes Us Do

 

Halloween 2012

Carsyn was a fairy. Ty was Casper...with jeans.

We headed to church for a little Trunk or Treat.

 

Where Carsyn and Daddy found some dogs to love on. Tony is a dog magnet. They all love him.

 

Carsyn had the best time on the inflatable. She was really intrigued by it, but also intimidated. Tony encouraged her to try at least once and she loves to please her Daddy. One time through the course and she was hooked. She did it at least 4 times.

 

 

 

Ty hung out and watched.

And tried to steal candy.

As it got later Tony looked at his watch, told Carsyn it was late and time to go home. In the truck Carsyn asked it she could come back next year. Then proceeded to ask if Tony could leave his watch at home. That time piece was cramping her style.
