Well, we made it through a 3rd Birthday, Christmas, and New Years! December is a very busy month for us. John's birthday was a lot of fun, and lasted quite a while. On his actual birthday we had playgroup at our house so he could celebrate with a bunch of his friends. That night we took him to Build-A-Bear where he made a turtle stuffed animal that he named "Red". I'm not sure why, as there is no red on him, but I guess he can name his new friend anything he likes. That weekend we had a family party at the house too. The next week was Christmas. Wow. Our house looks like Toys R Us exploded in it. And of course, of all the toys and games he received, John's favorite toy to play with is a toy train that the girls got! He is obsessed with it. He is also obsessed with his new Escalade power wheels, but unfortunatly the weather hs been so wet and yucky he hasn't gotten to ride it much. The girls got so many new clothes I don't know how they are going to wear them all! :) They are going to be some stylish babies this winter! I was a bad mommy and didn't take ANY pictures at John's birthday party, and only a few on Christmas, so if you were there and have some cute pics, PLEAE send them my way. I would really appreciate it. Here are a some pictures from the last few weeks.
Natalie wishes everyone a "Merry Freakin' Christmas!"
"Am I supposed to open ALL those presents???"
He kind of looks like a mad politican here, but really I just caught him while he was talking. This is at the train exhibit at the Botanical Gardens. It was so hard to get a picture of him because he didn't want to look away from the trains, and when he did, he didn't want to stop talking about them.
big, cheesy, fake smile "Just take the picture already MOM!

John really wanted to take a picture with Rebecca, but then he wouldn't look at the camera. Rebecca wasn't very happy about this arrangement.

Not the best picture in terms of exposure, but I love Rebecca's eyes in this pic. They match her dress almost perfectly.
