The Happy Couple!

My New Toy!

I got  my Christmas present early!  It's a Nikon D3100 DSLR camera.  I've had so much fun w/ it already.  I love taking pictures. :)  These are all of Lydia & Kyle and around the house yesterday.

Special Visitor

Ali came to visit us during the Thanksgiving holiday for a week.  He is a family friend ("adopted brother") that my sister met while she was in school @ Vincennes.  He is working in his home country, Liberia, Africa and we don't get to see him often anymore.  It was really nice to catch up and see what he is doing to help the bush people from his native country.

Lydia & Ali's first picture together

Kyle had a lot of fun with Ali.  Ali beat Ryan @ ping pong a few times. :)

Bryan played with Ali a lot, too.

Ali helped us decorate for Christmas @ church.

He visited my classroom, showed some pictures he took from the bush in Africa, and talked about how he is helping the Liberians that live in the bush keep their land.

Early Christmas

Kyle got a Veggie Tales train to put under the tree for Christmas!

Lydia's 1 Month Pics

and then there were 2!!!

This morning Ryan was taking care of Lydia, and I was in the shower.  Kyle came back to the bathroom and was playing with some toys.  After a while, he got quiet so I peeked out of the shower and found this:

Kyle had gotten into my makeup and decided to put on some MASCARA!!!  And of course it was waterproof!  This is why we cannot have more than 2 children.  We can't even keep 2 out of trouble!  :)

1 Week check-up

Lydia went to the doctor yesterday for a check-up.  He said she looks great and she's almost back to her birth weight!  Kyle was proud to show her off!
