My "Stylin" Girls





So Adalyn keeps telling me "I'm stylin mom!" I say yes you are Adalyn. I don't know where she heard to say that phrase but now she is always aking me if she's "stylin." It makes me laugh so I thought I would post some recent pictures of the girls looking "stylin"

Thanksgiving in Kansas!!

This Thanksgiving we felt very blessed to go and visit Adam's family in Kansas. It was a wonderful trip. We got to stay with Bryan and Holly a couple of days(adam's brother and sister-in-law) and there 3 kids Cody, Cammy and Grace. Our kids played so well together, it was fun seeing the girls get to know all there cousins. Then we stayed a couple of days with Adam's parents. We are so grateful to have such wonderful family and to be able to spend time with one another. We were also able to be at the blessing of Cam and Christy's new baby girl, Olivia. Both of the girls were so excited to travel and see family (especially grandma and grandpa) and it snowed!

Grace, Cammy and Cody had Adalyn and Ellie for Christmas and they gave the girls a doctor kit amd the little people Nativity. They were so excited to get presents and they LOVED playing with Cammy and Grace. Thanks Byan and Holly for letting us stay with you and for our awesome presents!

Some of the cousins, Grace, Jordynn, Keira, Ellie, and Cammy. The girls loved playing with there cousins!

Grandma!!!!

We love when we have family come visit but we especially love when it's Grandma Jones!!! I know I have the best Mom! We had such a great time and the girls were so excited to see her. Even Ellie warmed right up to her right away. Of course she had presents for the girls and Addy was so excited she got the new barbie movie "A Christmas Carol" She came on Nov. 11th and Adam had the day off so we did some shopping and then the next day we just hung out went around base and my mom got to go to Adalyn's gymnastics class which of course Addy was so happy about. The girls just were so happy to have somebody else to play with besides me. It was a nice break. It happened to be very warm while she was here and so the girls always wanted to be outside and Grandma never said no. She would pull them around the block in our wagon or let Adalyn ride her bike. She also taught Adalyn how to climb our two little jungle gyms and Adalyn was very proud of herself. And of course Grandma couldn't leave until we all had boots, so we went to Target and the girls got to pick out boots which they now want to wear every where we go. I love mine too! It was just a wonderful 5 days. Thanks Mom for coming and spending time with us. We love you!!

Energetic Ellie!!





So here are some pictures our cute little Ellie the night before her accident. She loves to sit in the cupboards and say "hide" She closes the cupboard to hide and waits for one of us to find her! She is so full of energy and just fun! Then the next day around 4:30 p.m. we were waiting for Adam to get off work a little early it was Friday Nov. 7 and I was upstairs playing with the girls in Adalyn's room. Ellie loves to climb on Adalyn's bed and play even though we are always telling her to get down because she runs and jumps on the bed and there is a wood head and foot board she could hit. Anyways I was helping her get down and holding one of her hands while she was jumping and being crazy. All of a sudden she tripped on Adalyn's blankets and like in slow motion I could see her falling toward the end of the bed and would hit the edge of the wood but I couldn't move fast enough to stop it from happening. So when she hit and looked up at me literally her mouth was filled with blood and she was screaming. I had never seen so much blood come from one of my kids. I cupped my hand under her mouth as blood poured out all over the floor and ran and grabbed a towel and called Adam asking him to quickly come home. Thankfully he did and the bleeeding stop but she completely bit threw her bottom lip and it was huge and swollen for about a week. Poor girl!
