Santa No!!

 Get me out of here, Eric come back

 Wait, what's that, candy, I like candy

Candy, this looks pretty good

Ok I got the candy now GET ME OUT OF HERE!

Oh Hanna!

  Because Zach and I are trying to adopt number 2 we have made pass along cards.  They are just business cards that have a picture of us and have all of our contact and adoption information on them.  They are for our friends and family to pass out if they hear of someone considering adoption.  Well I had a few of these on the table and was talking to JT about them when Hanna in a VERY concerned, quick little voice says "you're adopting again, you're giving up on Kabree".  After JT and I stopped laughing we reassured Hanna that we loved Kabree and would never give up on her, but because we love her so much we want to adopt again.  She calmed down after that but she was pretty nervous for little Kab's for a minute.

Aunt Jessi Christmas Party

 Look how excited Justice is

 Now it's Kabree's turn to be excited

    Heather and I decided since I watch her kids we should do a little Christmas party with them.  We all stayed in our pj's all day!  When they opened their gifts Justice was by far the most entertaining, he oohhed and aaawwwed and squealed every tear of the paper and then got so excited he started laughing when he saw his truck.  Hanna and Kabree decided to color most of the day and the boys did a movie marathon while Libby played her DSI most of the day.  We had yummy Chinese food for lunch (one of my favorites) and just hung out most of the day.  It was nice to just take a chill day.

Kabree's Christmas Dress

This is how she felt about having a picture
w/out her doll stroller

       So Little Miss Kabree smiles, dances and laughs away for my friend Ad but when Mommy tries to take pictures we stick that little lip out as far as it will go.  I did get her to let me take a couple by letting her sit in her baby stroller : )!  She is a pill but she is pretty cute if I say so myself.

Little Miss Kabree

 Kabree LOVES her cousins so much, she gets VERY excited when they come and gets VERY sad when they leave.  She loves to have Whitney come stay with us, she likes having her sleep in her room with her and play with Whitney's cell phone together.

Still loves her baby doll stroller, she has found many uses for it, she pushes her doll in it, pushes her cousin Justice around in it and uses it for a chair for herself.  Let's just say our walls have many pink streaks.

Mommy's slippers

Grandma's boots

 Kabree loves to get in our closet and wear other peoples shoes, when we have company sometimes she will even try to take their shoes off them so she can put them on herself  : ).

 Kabree loves her Grandpa's and when ever she gets upset she will grab out cell phones and start crying for Grandpa.  So, we usually let her call one of them so she can walk through the house tattling on her parents to one of her Grandpa's.

Kabree is loving helping wrap presents and all of the Christmas decorations.  It has made it very interesting some days, however, I'm optimistic our loss thus far is only 2 bulbs and one present.  Considering how many she has grabbed  and run with that's a good number.  She has tried to climb the piano many times to get to the Christmas village, she has grabbed and ran with pretty much every card we have gotten and she tries to hide the bows she has ripped off in her toys.  As you can see in the one picture she tries to put the gifts back "in" the tree instead of under the tree when she has gotten caught with them.  She has not learned to hide her mischief yet (thank goodness).

  I know its late but we had such a fun Thanksgiving this year.  It's been along time since all of my siblings were able to all spend Thanksgiving together.  Our Grandpa and Grandma, Jessica's parents and Scott and Jamie were all able to be there too.  It was defiantly a FULL house but it was really nice to have everyone together.  I love every single member of my family so much and I love nothing more then being with them.

  So Troy and I are both funny and when ever we go to our parents house him and I both want to stay in our old rooms, well lets just say I decided maybe it's time to go for a new room.  My old room is right at the top of the stairs and when there is a full house the teenagers all sleeping bag it on the basement floor.  About 3 a.m. when I was ready to beg them to go to bed, they turned in on their own. The stairway works as a sound tunnel right into my old bedroom.  So thank goodness there was lots of help this year because I swear I was out of it the whole next day : ), I think it's a sign your getting old when 3 a.m. about kills you the next day.

Where's The Line To See Jesus

  Just wanted to share this video I saw, it makes you think!

Best Buddies

Justice and Kabree

Hanna and Libby

  Justice and Kabree are truly best buddies they either love or hate each other.  They both get so excited when they see each other and hug and love on each other.  When I tell Kabree we are seeing Justice that day she starts calling his name and running through the house all excited to go see him.  As soon as we pull in their drive way she starts yelling "Dustice (Justice), Anna (Hanna)".

  Heather wanted some pics of her kids in the leaves so we threw Kabree in for a couple.  She was happiest when she was playing in them with Justice!

Little Miss and her necklace

Trying to shut Mommy out

   Little Miss Kabree still loves necklaces and as you can see she thought she was getting away with something, that's why she ran to the bathroom and tried to shut the door when she saw Mommy with the camera.

Little Miss Kabree is 18 months

 

 

  As always I LOVE way too MANY of the pictures.  Ad is way too good to us and spoils us when it comes to taking our pictures.  I love every single one and have it narrowed down to 18, but only room for one on my wall : )!  As you can see Little Miss Kabree still loves to dance during photo shoots!  I think she is the CUTEST liittle kiddo every and just want to squeeze her!

Our Family Pics

    My friend Ad took our pictures for us and I love way too many so i decided to just post the first three on the cd.  How will I ever decide which ones for Christmas cards and the wall!!!
