Tractors

Thanks to Grandpa Kit, the boys got to play on the tractor. We couldn't get it started but we got some great pictures.

Christmas in MT

While in MT we made our own pizza's. Notice only one of our pizza's has cheese. That is because the cheese graters were eating it all.
Sneak some while Dad isn't looking.

Alex opening his stocking. He was a little faster this time but still one piece at a time. Good thing Grandma was around. She has more patience.

Family picture. Use all back together.

Ice Fishing in MT

This was my first time ice fishing and it was quite fun! We did have a shed but the boys would rather be outside playing on the ice and Trinity was not having it at all.

It turned out to be a pretty nice day. The snow was falling but it made it warmer.
We caught to Salmon. Alex would play with the fish the whole time. He would put it in the snow. Then wipe the fish's face off. He almost put it back in the water. Even to bring it back to the car he made it hop all the way there.

If you look close you can see the van. There is where I spent some time and my mom. And just behind the van a ways was the sledding hill. You can't just fish the whole time with boys. Well I bet you could but I got bored so sledding was a good break and back to fishing. Overall it was fun and we definetly have to some more fishing in MT. Donovan says that was the best fish he has ate.

Christmas

This year we spent Christmas in our new house. Alex was great opening his stocking. We had to pull one thing out at a time and eat at least every piece of candy that he pulled out. Trinity was just excited that she might get to eat all the paper. She loved her bumbo.
Alex got tractors. But now he will correct you if you call it the wrong thing. Like it is a back hoe or a dump truck. These were only half of them he had to wait for our three other Christmas's to get the rest.

Family picture minus Donovan. I had to get out of the house. After a week of not leaving it and staying in PJ's I just needed an adventure even if it was a short one. We got some great shots. Now that he have Donovan we need to go get real ones.

Daddy wouldn't let Trinity open her own present. Too afraid of the paper in her mouth. All in all it was a great time. For dinner we just had steaks and enjoyed being with each other.

New toys

Grandpa Tom and Grandma Cindy came to visit before Christmas and brought some presents. Grandpa Tom was all about opening presents but Allan wanted to wait so we opened a few. This one we were saving but Alex is a bit like his mom and really couldn't wait so look what I found. A peeker. He loves it though
Alex had to help Grandpa open his present with his cool glasses on.

My dad was able to come for a visit and made Alex, Donovan, and Trinity this cool Kitchen. Ten times better than anything you could ever buy. They love it.

Love

Trinity can sit up with support and she can crawl backwards or scoot. She is getting big so fast.
Trinty really wants Alex's sippy cup lets see if she can get it.

Alex is losing the battle

Trinty got the sippy cup. Yeah and Alex wasn't even mad.

Alex loves his sister. This was done with no prompting.

Trinty just before going to church. Way cute.
