Fun new things!

We are a part of Citrus Lane and LOVE it! We pay $25 a month at get way over that in mom-approved, new and great products! Today we got this Green Toy as ONE of the gifts. He also got a great CD, a fruit squeeze 'em, a dark chocolate bar (for momma), a "brag book", and and two $15 vouchers for Ecomom. I haven't added up the product total yet, but I'm pretty sure that it's almost $75!! So far we have received three boxes, and I have been very pleased. I recommend it to anyone with kidos. 

He has recently been really in air planes, so this was a perfect toy for him. Not to mention that I wanted to get him this for Christmas, but didn't want to spend more money!



Then the other day I decided to make some snowflakes out of hot glue and fine glitter.  The directions I read said just to put the glitter and they would peel right off.... ummm, not so. Oh well, it was still fun. 

We are headed to WV on the 20th. We are very excited to see family! Not looking forward to the flying and getting up at 3am to make it to the airport, and trying to split the time between the two families. But I am REALLY looking forward to being with my mom, dad, sisters and their families (Zachary can't make it this year :( ). Since, it's really just Todd's mom and dad in his family (Todd's an only child), we are hoping that we can work something out where his parents come to mom and dad's house so time doesn't have to be split at all!!  (that would almost be too good to be true)  :)

In other news: Todd had an interview for a job that would change our lives.  I wouldn't have to be working so many jobs (I've been working ALOT recently), and we wouldn't be living pay check to pay check.  We are just that he gets this job!  You prayers are welcome as well.

SNOW much fun!

We have unusually warm weather this season and FINALLY got our first snow last night.  Luckily we just got River a snow suit yesterday! It was only 15 degrees outside, so we didn't stay long, but he had fun for the short time he was out there. 




 He couldn't really MOVE in his snow suit and reminded me of the little boy on "The Christmas Story"



 Then he fell down and landed face first in the snow. The glove came off, his little face was really red, so it was time to go back in!
 Time for some cookies and "hot" chocolate. 

Here's a short video of our time outside. Fun morning!

Dance, baby, dance

I know that many of you have seen this video but I wanted to share it on here as well. My baby is usually "embarrassed" to dance, but today he was ready to put on a show. :)
