One year ago...

Oh my!! I haven't blogged for a WHOLE year!!!! That is horrible!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!  So I decided (since this is my only "baby book") that I have to start blogging again AND I have to add a blog post for each month I missed last year!  Hopefully it will make sense!

Our busy month!

My Dear Angel Bugs,

We finally moved into our new house! Kaitlyn, it took you awhile to adjust.  You said that you didn't like the new house because your room isn't decorated here and the kitchen is too close to the backyard. Haha I am happy to report that you are happy here now, especially since you have a backyard to play and run in :) Despite us moving, we managed to put up our Christmas tree and even decorate this small one for Minnie.



We even made a ginger bread house.  Here you are injecting Chloe with pure sugar.


You weren't a fan of gingerbread! You asked for something healthy instead. That's my girl!
 New helmets!


This was really fun girls! We got to go visit Daddy's work on Christmas Eve.  They had Santa Clause on the radar with his reindeer.  Daddy and I decided when you were little to tell you the truth about Santa from the start.  Up until you saw "Santa" on Daddy's radar, you didn't believe he was real. Sigh..oh well! haha.

Daddy playing croquette with you girls :)





My little artists in your new painting smocks.
Kaitlyn, this is one of my favorite pictures.  You drew this of me in the morning.


We began homeschooling again (finally)! Chloe, you are doing so well learning your numbers!!


 
I love you!!
 
Love Always,

Christmas with the goats!

My dear Angel Bugs,

We visited our favorite place today and it didn't disappoint!  They had a huge area called Cowboy Boot camp with lots of fun activities for you two! You got to practice milking a fake cow, brush a pony, play in a huge bean box! It was beautiful outside and we had a great time! Of course we visited the goats too!








Santa was helicoptered in. Haha. You two didn't really care because you were too busy crafting.



















We love days like this!

Love Always,
~Mommy

We are moving!

My dear Angel Bug Loves,

We are moving soon from our little town home in Escondido.  Although I should be packing, my heart is a wee bit heavy tonight.  While I am excited to move into our new house in Temecula, this was a good little home the last two years and we were very happy here. Here are some pictures of you in our first few months of living here.  LOOK how little you were *sniff*







Now you two are so big and grown up! I have been feeling so guilty lately (unfortunately, your momma deals with guilt A LOT) that we haven't been able to decorate for Christmas and do our little crafts.  We haven't even had school since October :(  I feel like your little childhood is slipping away and I get down on myself when we don't spend every minute learning or painting or even reading some days. Then I remember that you ARE learning everyday whether I am actively "teaching"  you "school" things or just how to do everyday things and how to love each other, forgive each other, and share!  If I can get up in the morning and get you bathed and dressed and fed, I deserve a medal. Ha!

So although I haven't taken very many pictures lately, here are a few I couldn't resist sharing with you!

Chloe!! Look how beautiful you are!

Even when you are still half dressed in your jammas!

You two are still playing with Minnie!

We did manage to get in one craft this month!

Most importantly, look how much you have grown to love each other.  Kaitlyn you are so loving (most of the time!) to you little sister.  Here you are taking care of her after she bumped her head.


I'm so proud of you girls. I am soooo thankful I get to stay home with you, even if all we manage to do is get up and get dressed and eat three meals that day! I LOVE you! 

Love Always,
~Mommy
