Thanksgiving Review

Happy Thanksgiving! First, we started with a celebration with my mom's side.

These two got early Christmas gifts because by next Christmas two more names will need to be added!

Next, we went to my dad's side for a celebration and I didn't take any pictures! I guess that means I was having fun visiting...and eating :)

Early on Friday we headed out to visit with Kevin's dad's side of the family. On the way there, we saw a few spots of snow and ice - lots of ice - on trees and the hills...but not on the roads!

Aunt JungMin spent a lot of time with these girls....this was the "safest" spot to color - it could easily be cleaned if the crayon left the paper!

Chloe received a Bible from Mimi and Poppop - and she requested that JungMin read some! :) What a lovely moment captured here :)

Grandpa got us a train for under the tree!! Here are the girls, with their second-cousin, watching it go.

We had a great time of sharing things we are thankful for and (of course) lots of great food while we were out of town! Now we are busy getting ready for Christmas! :)

Baby Pool

Want to guess when Baby #2 is going to arrive? Post a comment, or send me an email, with your guess and I'll add you in! As a review, here are the rules to the game (taken from Heather Deterding!): 1. Post your guess for the baby's arrival in the "comment" section. Be sure to specify both date and time of day -- either "am" or "pm". 2. Limit one guess per person, and only one entry per time slot-- no sharing! 3. Winner is determined based on time of birth. For example, if the baby is born on April 20th at 7 AM, a guess of "April 20th, AM" would be the winner. In the event that there is no entry for the correct arrival time, the next closest guess based on actual time of birth would win. 4. We will post entries on the Calendar above. Check prior entries before placing your guess! Dates not displayed on the calendar above are still up for grabs. 5. The winner will receive... bragging rights and a congratulatory post h...

Praise God! We are thrilled to announce the birth of April Hope, born this morning at 4:42 a.m. and weighing in at 8 lbs 3 oz. and 20.5 inches long. We think she is beautiful! Both April and Alison are doing great. Here are just a few of many pictures taken on her first day. More to come...

Chloe at 11 months

I can hardly believe that Chloe will have her 1st birthday next month. She is getting increasingly mobile these days - her 'crawl' is getting faster and faster. She is also pulling up on anything she trusts and occasionally cruises from one place to another. If you watched the video, you have also seen that she can use the walker...but needs Dad's help on the turns :) Chloe still loves music of any kind ~ she sways back and forth when the music starts. Singing will bring her out of any temper tantrum or pout. She likes to be outside and still tries to eat rocks...something we're still slowly learning... Over Memorial Day, Chloe had quite an interest in the American flag and at the 4th of July we found that her love hadn't faded and she carried around the flag all day. She likes her new toys (nesting boxes and a "push the button, door pops open") but is still interested in some of her old ones. She likes anything with a lid and has a new fascination ...
