Easter and 14 months

Zack said he was happy his head got cut off because he doesn't like his hair right now;)

Can't believe how fast my baby girl is growing.

She is as sweet as ever.

Happy Easter

I'm not sure if they could be any cuter

looking for eggs

Oh . . .

And I forgot to post Van's ornament for the year. This year he picked the cutest owl ever. And I know the pictures are bad but . . .

Christmas

I know, I know I'm behind again on posting but it was the holidays and we were out of town, so there's my excuse.

Christmas Eve my sister hosted a family Christmas party. It's always fun to get together.

we won the game. we're pretty smart

the kids got to decorate sugar cookies for Santa (but mostly for themselves)

Christmas Eve reading Polar Express at bedtime

Christmas morning. Van was in HEAVEN with all his new toys

this is how Zack spent the whole weekend. He hurt his back and the only thing that made it feel better was laying flat with his feet tied together

I know this picture is blurry but he wouldn't stop to let me get a shot, this was by far his favorite present

the end of the night. And yes I realize he's 2 and still has a bottle.

Thanksgiving + O' Christmas tree

We had a really good Thanksgiving, it was good to spend time with all our family.

the Whiting/Hackett grandkids aren't they cute . . .

picking up our Christmas tree from Grandma Audrey one of the best parts of Christmastime

Easter and learning to skate board

Even though it doesn't look like it by the look on his face Van really did LOVE Easter this year. He was so excited to find his basket and mostly to eat all the candy. 

It was pretty impossible to get a picture of him so this is the best we could do and he's actually smiling for the camera.

After all the Easter hooooooopla Zack decided to teach Van how to skate board or long board I guess. Van was obsessed he loved it. He actually did pretty good, he definitely didn't inherit my uncoordination(I know that's not a word but I like it)

Wow.

Ugh so frustrating, I can't find all my christmas pictures well I guess I know where they are I just can't get to them. So here's a few from the festivities. Van LOVED Christmas this year. He would rip the paper and say 'ooooooooo' he really liked all his presents and has been quietly playing with them ever since. 

V got a snow suit from Grandma for Christmas I have been dying to take him out in the snow. I'm not sure he loved it but I think it will just take some getting used to.
