SuSu Visit....and Auntie Lori & Uncle Tony's Visit too!

This Friday is SuSu's visit! I have been trying to take more pictures lately, since we lost all the ones from October and November and part of December, so hopefully these will do. The kids also had a great time with my Mom. I am very lucky to have two wonderful grandmothers, but we always lived far away. So I am glad that the kids get to have this time with Susu & Nana. I think Susu wishes she could move in!

Auntie Lori & Uncle Tony happened to also be in town, visiting and helping with the process of Cuckoo and Gampa, my grandparents, moving from their house in Fearrington to the condo. Thanks for driving over to visit us!


Susu & Stokes (not sure why this one is side ways, can't adjust)


The kids love book time






Emma was mad at me because I would not let her have anymore snacks! So she decided to roll around in front of the pantry door to get attention. The terrible twos are here!


Auntie Lori and Susu admiring this handsome guy!




Petting Sophia, Lori's dog


Yum!

Watching the world go by....

A few pictures from today. Emma loves to watch all the kids and family's outside playing and walking by. We have the nice long windows, so it is perfect for a curious little toddler not missing a trick!


It is funny, Emma has to tell me if she sees kids or 'woofs' walking by :)




Stokes just being cute.


Tents are fun

Nana's visit

Nana, Courtney's Mom/Pam, and my mom have been so great to come and help us on some Fridays with the kids. It is working out nicely, as I know the kids are enjoying their time with their grandmothers and are getting to know them more! Here are some pictures from Nana's visit.


Nana & Stokes


Emma is showing me she is going to be TWO! (two fingers)


Nana just redid some rooms in her house, and we got some hand-me-down pillows. Cracks me up, the pillow is bigger than Emma!


This is a very tempting spot for Emma, she is not supposed to touch and play with the items on this table. Just too tempting to her! ;)




Love this big smile


We love bath time!







Friday pictures:


Love him


The curls are getting longer!







Emma watching Super Why (her all time favorite show!)

Saturday Morning:


Nana taught Emma how to eat Cereal like a big girl!! She eats it now every morning

Happy Valentines' Day!

Happy Valentines Day! All four of us are at home today celebrating Valentines, as we have the case of Pink eye (well, Emma has it) and all of us have a sinus infection and are not feeling great. That doesn't stop all the love and smiles though for us!

We are celebrating tonight with a slice of the best coconut cake ever!! Hayes Barton Cafe!!!!





Pink eye does not stop smiles


oh...glad I could capture this face. This is her saying ewh.....


Airplane!



Playing, it was cute.


Can't wait to eat it!! It is the size of an entire large to go container


Can't forget the flowers

Hope you enjoy this video of the kids: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GsftQLNDTTM

Who doesn't love a Saturday?!

Boy, it is a COLD day today in Raleigh! High of 30 something... I always feel like if it is going to be this cold, we should have snow. Thankfully the 'cold' did not arrive until the afternoon, so this morning we took advantage and headed out to breakfast at Big Ed's. Our favorite place for breakfast, as it was where we had our rehersal dinner.

We spent the rest of the day playing and enjoying a warm fire!! Not a bad day at all...


At Big Ed's... Emma our social girl. Notice she is waving at someone, eating a biscuit and apple sauce all at the same time! A true multi-tasker!


I am enjoying this time, as the two kids play nicely together!




Emma recently discovered our shower downstairs, and now likes to climb in it (I will have to remember this as a hide n'seak place one day!)
