December 2012

Let's just call this one:
"The Month of December"
It went by lightning fast, but overall I would say December was good to us.
Vince got to experience his first Christmas, Mason began to understand the magic that surrounds this holiday, several cousins got engaged, and we ate and ate and ate some more.
I probably don't need to mention what my New Year Resolution will be :/
We got a foot of snow right around Christmas,Vince started rolling over this month, and I got a new camera for Christmas :)
I GOT A NEW CAMERA FOR CHRISTMAS!!!!!
So in a nutshell, here's our month in pictures!
Enjoy :)
 Cooper LOVES the snow...it's hysterical to watch him out playing in it!








Vince got his first few bites of bananas...and sugary sweet potatoes courtesy of my Mom on Christmas Day!

















 




Another resolution is to be rid of that ba-ba!!!
So I'm hoping these are the last pictures we will see of it :)



 Little Tiernan is a thumb sucker!
We had our friends over for a Christmas Party and the kids had a blast.

 


Mason got a chainsaw from Reanne and the boys loved it!  We pretended to cut off the Dad's legs all night loooonnnng.
 

 


These are the closest we could get to getting all the kids together for a picture........and that's what I love about them! Couldn't be more imperfectly perfect!











He still prefers nursing but I try to sneak in about a bottle a day!









Christmas Eve!
Leaving a note for Santa.



 



Making a gum-stache to look like Santa!

My Dad got the stomach flu Christmas Eve (somebody always has to be sick during the holidays) but otherwise we had a great celebration!
Christmas Day at the Conservation Club :)

 Cooper pulls the sled!

He also steals the sled!





 
And our sweet baby turned 4 months old on Christmas Day :)


 
 4 months:
He's rolling over and will always laugh during a game of "peek a boo"
He loves Jaidie and his big bro and has such a sweet little presonality!
I'm having so much fun watching this little guy grow :)
 
So that was a very long post on our month...hopefully I'll be a little more on top of things next month!

Our Trip to Niagara Falls, Canada. One last getaway before our kids headed back to school and this one couldn't have been more perfect!  I highly recommend seeing these amazing Falls at least once in your lifetime!  We did all things tourist-y and I wanted to share some of our favorites if you're ever looking to take a trip North. Our girls + kids weekend getaway, plus all the deets: Also, girls trips are awesome - we had soo much fun! If you're looking for a home to rent while in Niagara Falls that is gorgeous and perfect in every way, while also being within walking distance from most things then be sure to check this one out.  This was just enough off the beaten path that we could come back home in the afternoons and unwind while getting away from the hustle and bustle of the city.  Us girls sat on the porch and rested while the kids played in the hot tub, or on the tire swing in the backyard!  Here's the short list of our favorite tours and eater...

The boys have been begggging for bunk beds for YEARS -  and to get ready for our next newest addition in November, we finally gave in to their pleas and they're now sharing a room! For not a whole lot of money, I think it turned out super cute.  I'll post the deets here if any of you are looking for a quick remodel for a shared brothers bedroom. The wall I did completely on my own, only using a tape measure, level, and razor blade!!  Originally I had wanted an authentic restored barn wood - but the $1200 price tag made me quickly change my mind.  Instead, I picked this up at Lowe's for less than $1 a square foot.  I had never attempted a project like this at all, but after watching just a few YouTube videos I felt like it was something I could certainly tackle on my own.  I did apply just a thin layer of additional glue before I put each peel 'n stick panel to the wall.  Total cost for this Driftwood Gray weathered wood wall was le...
