A Few Updates!

There are a few little things I wanted to get onto "paper" for memories sake. Elizabeth saying, "thank you," Gabriel learning big words like trapezoid, hexagon, and hypothesis, and the over all growing up of our kiddos! Here are a few pics: I love sneaking in and getting sleepy shots. They are such angels when they sleep =)

Once awake it's back to the "reindeer games."

And growling at the Christmas Tree: Life is busy, busy, busy, but we are trying to enjoy every minute =). These kids are growing quickly and I'm trying hard to soak them all in. They stress me out, but they also give me so much happiness! I've been cherishing one on one time with the kids lately as their naps are off slightly (Liz needs an earlier nap and Gabriel isn't sure about a nap anymore, but when he does it is later afternoon). They are SO different individually than they are together. I see a total switch in behavior once they get together in the same room. They both fight for attention, whine, are WAY more needy, and also fight each other (well, Gabriel generally wins...). So this one on one time is super special for me because I get to see them at their "finest." They are definitely little sweeties when I get them alone. At first I was upset about their nap times being off, but it's turned into a good thing. Having one was so much easier than multiples! I am giving them something special though.... a sibling for life =). God is also giving me a heritage. Family is so important and I am blessed!
