So You Think You Can Dance!!

So You Think You Can Dance is one of my all time favorite shows. I definitely do not have the skills any of these contestants have but it doesn't not take away any of the enjoyment that I get from watching this show. Emily, on the other hand, may have a shot at being "America's Favorite Dancer" when SYTYCD comes to New Hampshire. You be the judge.


Yes, Emily is going to kill me when she gets older for posting this. I don't care. It was too precious not to share with everyone.

The Lastest Snow Storm

I have honestly lost count of how many inches of snow that we have accumulated this winter. It has to be almost 3 feet if not more. I love the snow, just hate the thought of having to shovel it. This past Wednesday we were said to have accumulated 11-19 inches of snow. I considered taking out a ruler and measuring but I think the pictures speak for themselves.


Emily couldn't wait to get outside to catch snowflakes with her tongue.The snowbanks at the end of our driveway are about 6 feet high.

Abigail is walking!!!

Well, she took her first steps a couple of weeks ago but it has taken me this long to get it on video. She is up to about 4 or 5 steps then she just sits down and smiles. Emily gets just as excited as we do. She will run into the room and scream "Abby's walking, come look!" It is the cutest thing. I can't believe that Abigail will be a year so soon! It is going by so fast.

Our Little Climber

As if crawling and almost walking wasn't enough for Abigail, she has to climb onto or into anything she can. She is nothing like Emily in this regard. I tell her no and she just looks at me and smiles. I am in BIG trouble with this little one.

She may not be the most graceful, but she gets the job done.

Sledding at Grandma's with ReRe and James

The day before we left CT, ReRe and James came over for some play time. James brought over his Sit-n-Spin. It was the best thing ever. The kids could have played on it forever. Once all the adults started getting nauseous, we decided to take the kids outside for some sledding. Well, ReRe went sledding, I just watched. The kids had a great time.
Love this Sit-n-Spin.

Christmas in Connecticut

On Christmas Day we drove down to CT to see the family. The girls got to see Grandma before she had to work for the weekend. Emily was so excited to see her and to open more presents. She thinks that anything wrapped is for her. It is tough to explain that not everything is for her. She still doesn't quite grasp that concept yet but who really does? :)Abigail sporting her new hat from Grandma. I think she was more
interested in the paper bag though.
Sorry Mom.

Emily explaining to her cousin, Kaleigh, that this is her present and she doesn't want to share. Kaleigh wasn't happy with that outcome.Daddy and his girls

Yes, Auntie Jen had to find the loudest, most obnoxious toy Toys R Us had. All I have to say is payback is a ......

Thanks everyone. It was great to see you all!!

Christmas Eve with the Watson's

We had a very relaxing afternoon with Nana, Pada, Uncle Bobby, Auntie Bethany, Stone and Dashel. The kids were very excited to open their presents. Uncle Bobby found a website that showed where Santa was at that exact moment. The kids thought it was very cool. Thanks Nana and Pada for having us all over your house to celebrate Christmas Eve!


Abigail playing with her new toys.

Abigail and Dashel are still trying to figure each other out.
Big Hug!

We did have a relaxing day until the Wii was brought out. The competitive side of everyone came out. It was hilarious! This was Bob and Sandy's gift the Bobby and Bethany. Very cool!

Stone and Emily boxing!

Big brother/little brother rivalry was alive and kicking during this boxing match. If I remember correctly, the little brother prevailed!

Todd and Sandy playing baseball. Looks like Sandy is winding up for her fastball!
