Kate has the greatest hair (actually I'm jealous of both my girls...they already have way better hair than I ever had or hope to have...thick, wavy and textured...I hardly know how to work with it!) She always wakes up with the best mop of curls all over her head, and I just had to snap a picture...
First eggnog of the season...
Our little man...finally, finally, finally his baby acne has totally cleared up (since this picture was taken)...Andy and I say everyday...Wow! You were/are CUTE under all those baby zits...now that we can see you!
Thanksgiving in Laguna Niguel with our great friends...the Duncombes and McLendons...the kids had a great time, although the night ended with 2 of the other kids throwing up all over...
Dressed for Church...
Don't be fooled by the cuteness--Kate hurled right before this picture was taken (that's right Marcy--Kate got sick on Sunday morning after Thanksgiving)...only Lauren went to all 3 hours of Church...
This is what I found when I came home halfway through Church...who's child is this??? Mine don't simply fall asleep on a chair...
...and then roll off onto the floor, still asleep...
...and then roll over, still asleep...yes, she was very sick...
Brotherly love...Kate has REALLY surprised me with how much she likes Charlie...I was VERY worried before he was born...but she has pulled through and been quite charming with her brother...
Yes, we finally did it...put in the brick walkway and porch in the front yard...we simply couldn't take walking through dirt on the way in the house anymore...
What to do while stuck inside? Stand at the window and bug the workers with "HELLO!" fifty thousand times...
I wish I had a picture of the finished product, but I haven't taken one, but dang it looks good...we LOVE it...now we can finish the planting...our next thing is to put a new tree in right where the brick is sitting on the lawn...our front gets intense sun exposure in the summer, and the tree will make it a lot shadier and cooler...
Happy 30th Andy! We had a great little family celebration the night of his birthday...the kids are VERY into birthdays...as evidenced by their faces...
Sometimes it's nice when other members of the family participate in the feeding of the baby! Give mom a rest!
Dressed up for a night in the cultural hall!
Gotta love the Home Depot tree! That tree is still standing bare in our living room...in the stand, and I did put some lights on it this afternoon, but we haven't even had a chance to decorate it...
The boy smiles...it's hard to get a good shot when I'm both the smile-initiator and the photographer...what a good boy Charlie is...
So the blogging devil is off my back now, at least for a while...

So so cute! Love the pics of Charlie. What a handsome devil! Oh, and when you get around to it, I want to see a picture of the finished walkway! I'll bet it looks great! Must be nice not tracking dirt into the house!
Noone can beat Kate's hair!! I love it! Thanks for the update. It's always fun to see what's going on. That little Charlie is a cutie!
It's sad when blogging feels like a chore, huh. I've felt that so many times before, too, but still you keep plugging b/c it's a journal of what's going on. Good for you.
And I love the brick walkway! It really does look awesome, especially in person!
Yay for smiles! Thanks for calling me the other day. It was really nice to talk to you. Happy birthday to Andy! I love the updates. Charlie is so cute. He looks alot like Andy to me. I love the sequencial photos of Kate starting on chair, rolling onto the floor and then rolling again...hilarious. Your walk way looks amazing too.
I love that little boy.
OK, Charlie is ADORABLE! I get how you feel about blogging. Just kindof do it all at once and then leave it for a week or two. SOunds great to me!!! You are super cute, your fam is cute, love the house and everybody seems so happy! Good job mom!
I love the update Shannon, though I am SO sorry that Kate ended up getting sick. Ugh. Charlie smiling is so adorable, MAN does he ever look like his Daddy! Your front walk looks great (yay for that!) and how hot do you look in that red shirt with your hair all wavy?!
It was so fun to be with you on turkey day. Sorry for our rapid exit from the days festivites, but man did we ever have fun with you and your family!
