Happy New Year!! 2010!! and finishing up the old year!

Luke was excited to stay up to midnight and bring in the new year. Mommy and Annie went to bed about 10:30 but Rich and the older kids all fell asleep on the couch snuggled together and missed the countdown. Rich woke up at 1:30am w/ both kids cuddled up against him and brought them to bed. This morning Luke shared his 2010 picture w/ me. Those are supposed to be fireworks.
a few days ago both kids had red on so I tried to get a few pictures of them together.

Luke likes Annie to "do things" with him. So here they are watching TV together.

A few days ago, I was embarrassed to find some awful mildew growing in Luke's room in the window. We hardly ever lift open the blinds, so I didn't even know it was there! I feel bad that maybe this was the cause of his chronic 2 month cough he's had?!! I had him in to the doctor again.. they think we will know w/in a week (after thorough cleaning w/ bleach and sleeping in his sisters room) if this is the cause of his cough. Annie is starting to outgrow her bassinet! She only has about 3 inches left when she stretches out. I brought up the pack n' play to try but I learned that the small space of the bassinet is beneficial, b/c in the pack n' play she'll roll on her back and lay there like a stuck turtle! Annie's enjoys tummy time a lot more than the other kids did. She is very strong (according to the doctor) and holds her head up well. Which we all knew!
here she is sporting a new outfit from Aunt Carla.
Tummy time w/ her new chimes and TV.

Annie has officially been labeled "Mini Mama" according to Daddy!
Yesterday I asked for help watching Annie so I could take the kids out to play in the snow. I MISS playing with them!! Rich's parents were kind enough to come over and help me out. We had a blast building a snowman and this snow fort! The snow was perfect packing!
I had to go in an nurse Annie, but this was the fort when I left. Luckily Daddy got home early and got to finish playing with them.
These pictures are from last week sometime?



I sent the kids out to play on their own b/c I had to stay inside w/ Annie. Thank goodness for the large sliding door/window we have off our family room that allows this. Here is Luke trying to pull Abby down the hill!
not getting very far! :)
