iPhone pics

The best quick meal ever. Taste like I have been cooking all day. I can't get over how tender and tasty this pot roast is and takes only 6 minutes.
I discovered The Oaks Mall. It was love at first sight. Such a nice mall. Noah and I go there often and we always get a pretzel. A few weeks ago when we were there eating our pretzel Natalie became best friends with the woman sitting next to us. They talked for like 15 minutes. Turns out this woman was the manager at Godiva chocolate and now every time we go we stop by to say hi and she loads us up with lots of samples.
Natalie at her soccer dinner. She had a great time playing and had a great team..not sure they ever actually won a game but they don't keep score at this level. But she had a great time and got pretty darn good we can't wait for next season.
Natalie with her old teacher(who I adored) Mrs. Lehman on her last day at her old school.
The kids made a gingerbread house with their favorite person in the whole world Luke who lives across the street.
I had made cranberry salsa for Thanksgiving and I accidentally stuck the wooden spoon too far down when making it and it cut up the spoon(we have a freakin powerful blender). I took this picture and sent it to my mom asking her if she thought the salsa would still be okay(even though I already knew the answer) and she informed me "NO!" so I had to drag everyone back out to the store Thanksgiving eve night. Fun times.
Natalie switched schools the Monday after Thanksgiving. She really loves her new school(I personally like the other one better) and she got an award her first day for doing well. She liked being the new kid in class.
We did the final walk through a few weeks ago before they did the work on the house and here is Noah loving the stairs.
The kids trying out the bathtub. Emma hates baths even when there is no water in them.
I had to take Ryder to get an ultrasound of his hip(turned out negative all is well) and it was just the two of us that morning. I don't usually have one on one time with the twins. He was NOT having that ultrasound. He screamed, thrashed around and peed on everyone. Finally I was up on the table nursing him while another assistant held his leg, the ultrasound tech using her machine with another tech pushing the buttons. It took about an hour and I was covered in ultrasound jelly. We came home and Ry took a three hour nap, poor guy.
We had the Christmas party for Jeds office. It was really fun they had a photo booth and raffles and yummy food. I was trying my best to act like the bosses wife but then Jed decided to stick the mustaches(from the photo booth) on his eyebrows and sported them for the rest of the night so I didn't feel any pressure to act mature :)
I finally finished my wreath and I think it turned out great.
This is seriously Ryders hair in the morning. It's untamable.
I had won the gift card mall prize from the Albertson's game. I had sent in the information and was just waiting for them to contact me. They finally contact me and I go in with all the kids totally tired(the day after the babies had the flu) and make-up less. I had no idea that the store director was waiting for me with a cake and camera. They made a little presentation and took my picture. Went in yesterday and my picture is blown up and right at the front entrance. Kinda glad we are moving now :)
The babies are sort of done doing shopping trips in the carseats. Which works out nice for me because I have more room for groceries. They love to sit and go for a ride. Although their new favorite thing to do is bite each other and gauge each others eye balls so sitting together like this gives them easy access.
We had not bought a tree yet because it was so up in the air as to when we were moving into our new house. I had mentioned this to my visiting teacher and later that day she showed up with this 7ft fake tree that she had found a few weeks ago. It fit perfectly in our family room and the kids were in love. So sweet!
