Our Crazy Life!: Happy New Year's!

Spencer has become quite the skater. Grandma got him a skating trainer for Christmas for him to hold onto while going around the ice. He can really move fast with it. He likes it because he's finally not falling down 100 times.

Footballs and Hockey sticks have invaded our house! Sadlyy this was just in our basement and only the Packer footballs. Not sure how many non-Packer footballs are in our house!

This week Nolan got to spend a day at home with just mom! I love having 1 on 1 time with my baby.

Auntie give Nolan "Jean" diapers in the hospital so he here is modeling them for her! Auntie likes to give Nolan diapers. He got some from her for Christmas also. He's hoping she ventures out a bit for his birthday.

Another gift Nolan got in the hospital was a snuggie from Paula. He LOVES to cuddle with it. It puts him right to sleep.

Nolan ready for our lunch date.

Liam and Nolan were supposed to be a month apart. Liam came late and Nolan came early so they are only 5 days apart.

I've officially become hooked to pinterest. Here's Nolan and I making one of the kid friendly recipes I found. He's a big helper.

I finally hooked up the Kinect for the boys. I need to get a longer cable for behind the TV so for now it's ghetto style with the cords all over the place. Spencer loves to bowl and run in the track and field events. He's really catching on to playing it and knows if he has a good day at school there is a chance he will get to play a game when he gets home.

(You can see Easton at the end doing the same moves as Spencer.)

Spencer working on his letters and numbers.

Spencer's friend Gavin turned 4. They had his birthday part at the bowling alley. The kids all loved taking turns sending the ball down the ramp and knocking the pins over.

It was pizza time!

Followed by cupcakes!

After the birthday party Finley came back to our house to play. The boys did ok for the most part. Spencer was over tired and wasn't in the mood for sharing his toys or his mom with anyone else.

So I took the boys outside...

Again someone wasn't into sharing his toys!

So we taught Finley how to play the kinect.

I could tell Spencer needed to chill out for a bit and I was tired of listening to him whine so I sent him with Ryan to play on the pond by our house. Finley and Easton had fun though playing play-doh and having a snack.

Finley fell asleep watching a cartoon. All of the boys were tired from their busy day. When Finley woke up he was ready to go home. He told me he missed his mom and Hadley.

Finley and I had an ice cream treat while we waited for his mom to pick him up.

I figured out I was pregnant bringing the New Year's of 2008, 2010 and 2011. We still didn't have a wild and crazy night on the town like most. Instead we headed to Auntie's house for a low key wear your sweats and slippers kind of New Years party. The kids had fun playing together and there was plenty of good food. Sadly we didn't make it to midnight we were all pretty tired. We are looking forward to a fun and crazy busy 2012!
