What a Christmas!

We had a great Christmas! Cousins were in town along with Nana Nancy and Grampa Boots. We got to spend part of the week with them. We also got to spend some time over at Grandpa and Grandma Whitings house. What fun! The kids were sure excited that Santa Claus was coming. They sang "Santa Claus is coming to town" all month.

This video is of Abby and what she thought of the hot chocolate Santa left for her. She thought it was the little packet that comes in shoe boxes and purses, because her older cousin Ariah had showed her one a few nights earlier that had come in her dress up box.

Greg is now five. The first thing he did was ask us when he got to start going to kindergarten. He sure does love learning!

Andie is home

Well, actually she has been home for a month now. As usual, I am behind. It has been quite the adjustment having a third child in the home, but we are enjoying having our new baby home. Greg and Abby just adore her, and they are constantly wanting to hold her and play with her.

It's a Girl!

So, as you all probably know by now, we have an early arrival. Andrea Jean Snow was born on September 24, 2010 (Dad's birthday). She was 8 weeks early, thanks to Mom. She has been doing great in the NICU, and we all love her so much! Andie loves her binky, and as of today she is off the belly rubin light, so now she can be snuggled up in a blanket to sleep. Up until today she just had to hang out under the light, so she had some wild nights flailing about!

Greg can ride his bike with no training wheels!

So Dan and I left town yesterday to see Pride and Prejudice at the Shakespeare Festival in Cedar City for our 11 year anniversary! Yeah us! We really enjoyed having a day together. Thanks for the wonderful date Dan!

While we were gone, Aunt Suzie and Uncle Josh watched the kids. Greg just adores Josh, and loves to watch him race. Greg got to take his bike up to the race last week, and Aunt Suzie said he just raced right along with all of the other people! What an awesome boy!

Josh promised to teach him how to ride without training wheels, and yesterday he did just that! Greg is now riding his bike without training wheels, and he is doing really well. Our little boy is growing up so fast!

Happy Birthday Abby!

Abby just loves to dance and sing. Whenever she hears music she just has to get moving. She can now ride her bike (with training wheels), and she loves to talk about what a big girl she is now. We just love our little Abigayle!

For her birthday we opened presents first thing (it's tradition!) She got lots of pink clothes, jewelry, and pots and pans for her kitchen thanks to her grandparents. She was spoiled! Her favorite things were of course the cards. She loves to get cards, and she will carry them around for weeks after recieving one.

We spent they day at the Shelley Family Reunion (Emily's family), and then came home to have cake and ice cream with Aunt Suzie and her best friend Chloie and her family.
