Christmas

We had such a nice Christmas this year! I feel so blessed to be where we are and that we were able to spend it with family. It was the first year Santa came for Rocco. He didn't seem too into Santa, but he didn't tell us we were crazy! :)

Better Late Than Never!

Rocco started his potty training today! He had one accident, but I had forgotten to ask if he needed to go. So it was kind of my fault. I guess he was finally ready! I know I was ready to stop buying his diapers. He was also in a size 6, which is as high as they go. So it needed to happen soon! Say a little potty prayer for us! ;)

My Sweet Babies

I absolutely adore these faces!! Even after a long, sometimes stressful day of exploding diapers, tears, and messy rooms, their precious little smiles make it all worth it. Not to say I don't still need a drink! :)

Smarty Pants

Santa Clause...

Is coming to town! I love the Santa at Boise Town Square. He has kind eyes, and a nice beard. Rocco met him and told him what he wants for Christmas. It's an odd request, but he's been wanting it since the beginning of October :)
Owie didn't put in any requests for Santa.

12 Days of Baby Owie

Everything is going really well here! Our baby boys (okay, only one of them is technically a baby) are adjusting beautifully to all the changes and I am ALMOST finished unpacking from the shipment that arrived day before yesterday. Baby Jack (or Howie, whatever you want to call him. We started calling him Howie when he was still in the belly, and it just kind of stuck. Rocco calls him Baby Owie. Feel free to call him that, or his real name, Jack. Also, yes, we do realize that technically Rocco and Jack have the same first name. But who knew Jack is a nickname for John?? I didn't :) as long as everyone is confused by our children's names, we're satisfied!) is 12 days old today and is doing the normal baby thing. He's started throwing his head around quite a bit, and is eating and gaining weight like a champ! So I'm happy with that.
Also, any and all prayers we can get directed toward my little niece, Charlie, will be so appreciated!
Here's her cute little picture and an explanation of what she is dealing with:

So, we are praying for her, and hoping for the best!
Hope everyone is having a good weekend, and maybe somewhere out there it's snowing for some lucky people :) We haven't seen any worth talking about here in Boise. Which to some is a good thing, but not for me.
