Button me up...

Well, she is on her way now...She has learned how to button her pajamas. We are still trying on other things but for the most part she can do them. With a little persistance and telling Mama to back off she can button up just about anything. It is so amazing watching how proud she is of herself when she does it. What a big girl you are!!!!

I gotta do everything around here....


Man, what did they do without me to show them what to do? Someone could get hurt out here!
(don't you love the tutu)

Girl's best friend




The pictures speak for themselves. They are Carmen and Rebel.

Eagle Scout




We went looking for Eagles up in the mountians. There is a river called the Nooksack that the salmon run every year and at certain times the eagles are there too. The eagles are so majestic. We were a little late for them but, we found a small one way up in a fir tree.
Anyway, it was a really cold day and the Northeastern wind was whipping through the river but, it was also clear and beautiful as you can see from the mountain pictures.

Christmas






Well, as usual the girls racked up. At least we didn't have to do alot of shopping. The grandparents really came through! Carmen's big gift was her doll house. Gilli's was the cradle that Uncle Joel (that's my man!) made for her. Carmen was goofing off with the wrapping paper trying to get a Santa beard. I love the picture of Gilli with the chocolate face. That just about sums up the way a woman should end Christmas!

Oh Cristmas Tree, Oh Christmas Tree



Carmen had a good time helping Mamma and Nana pick out our tree and helping Daddy cut it down. I can't believe how tall she is getting.
