Branson's Rocket

For Branson's 3rd birthday, all he asked us for was a rocket.  We got him lots of other fun stuff, but thought he might be too young for a rocket, and brushed it off.  After he opened up all his presents, he said, "Where's my rocket?"  Dang.  So.......for a potty training incentive, we offered a rocket.  Potty training is defiantly not one of my favorite things to do, and after a few days of accidents, and fear of going on the potty, he got it!! I called Reed at work and asked him to pick up a rocket from Walmart on his way home.  Branson LOVED it!!



Green smoothie love.

This girl loves any kind of smoothies:  pumpkin, banana, green, chocolate......she loves them all!! Sneaky little way to get her to eat healthy.
 

Super Allie!

I love the binky with her mask :)
And I love how she is carrying a super man Pez dispenser in this one.  So funny.

Branson's 3rd Birthday!!

Opening presents.
A SWORD from grandma and grandpa!!
Blowing out his 3 candles.
His construction birthday cake.  This is about as fancy as my cakes can get. 
Happy Birthday Branson!! We all love you!

Random catch up Pictures

When we were painting our house last spring, there was always blue painters tape around.  Macie made it into jewelry and make up. Pretty creative. :)
Close up...
 
I was washing one of the car seats, and Branson found this in the clean laundry pile.  It goes on the head rest, but he thought it looked like a pirate hat!
Posing for his close up.

Christmas Morning 2012

The kids made Christmas morning so fun this year!  Especially Macie, she was so excited and grateful for everything!  She kept saying thank you over and over, and "This is the best ever, you guys are the best!" :)  She would hug us after each present, and was just really dramatic about everything, it was really funny.  We were able to go in with Reed's side of the family and help out a family for Christmas this year, which was really good for all of us, but again, especially for Macie. She kept thinking about them and talking about them, and even praying for them. And she was mindful of all she had, so I am wondering if that helped her be so thankful for everything that morning. Macie woke us up that morning and told us Santa had been there.....

Checking out the loot in her stocking.

The cookies & milk and carrots were gone!

Oh yeah!  I got new set of pots and pans!!!  I LOVE them!  Holy cow....big difference from what I had!  I feel like a chef now :) 

Checking out Mommie's stocking.

Allie got this shopping cart from Santa.

She loved it.....I knew she would.

And Macie asked Santa for a the "Barbie Mariposa" movie .  I might have put the idea in her head after I bought it, haha.   In this picture she was twirling around with it....

And screaming.........

And posing for the picture.....hahaha, I told you she was dramatic :)

Allie giving her bunny a ride.

Branson on his bike, I mean "motorcycle," he got from Santa.  As soon as we walked in the living room he went right to it and sat on it.  We asked him if he liked his bike and he said, "MOTORCYCLE."  And every time someone called it a bike he corrected them.  Motorcycles are cooler I guess ;)

Branson on his motorcycle.


Allie checking out the motorcycle. 

Macie when her daddy unveiled her new Barbie house he built her.  She Covered her mouth and  kept backing up until she hit the couch....very dramatic, haha. 

I mod-podged fabric to the walls for wallpaper, but ran out on Christmas Eve, so the walls look really splotchy. She didn't notice, and I'll fix that later.  She absolutely loves it though! She plays with it ever day!   

Allie and the cart :)

"Candy!"
