I can't remember going this long without posting in the nearly 3 years I've had this blog! Sorry for the lack in posting in the last few months. I'd like to say that I have a great excuse, but, really, I don't. Basically, life got in the way...not to mention the holidays. This was the first holiday without my brother around and it was a little hard for all of us-thank goodness for skype! Other than that, the kids are growing like crazy, and I think we're all ready for spring and for it to stop snowing:)!

| Avery modeling a new hat and gloves...she's very into having her picture taken! |
 |
| Spencer has become VERY into Buzz Lightyear. Luckily, I found these slippers on clearance at Target for his growing feet and growing love for a certain space ranger. |
 |
| Popcorn is a fantastic was to get the kids to sit still and be quiet for a little while:) With all of the snow and cold weather, we've been having a lot of family movie time. |
 |
| They weren't actually posing for a picture here...sometimes, they just really like each other this much:) Spencer has started calling Avery "sissy" and loves to give her hugs. |

| Cousin Garrett and Avery at Christmas. |
 |
| While I was a little out of the blog world, we welcomed a new cousin, Eli, into the family! |
 |
| The kids had a lovely Christmas and one of their larger gifts from mom and dad was an upgraded kitchen-they were so excited! |
 |
| Christmas morning with my kiddos, I'm so glad they are still young enough that they sleep in on Christmas morning:) |
 |
| Avery and Spencer in front of the tree with the Christmas jammies. |
 |
| One day the kids got a little too crazy on the furniture and had too many accidental injuries from playing on the couch so for one day they weren't aloud to be on any furniture...mommy still helped them be cozy and comfy though! |
 |
| I'll end my first blog back with a recent picture of Jake, who is now PFC Redwanski. He is a little over 4 months into his year tour and it's nice to say he'll be back in the states this year! |

I am so happy to Christmas photos! Colten has those same Buzz slippers!! It looks like Santa was very good to them : > I love the pic of Jake and thank God for technology. I know you missed him at the holidays but imagine a world without Skype. Love you all!
I can't believe how much older Spencer looks!! WOW!! Seeing the two of them together is a like a miniature version of You & Artie... so cool!
Glad you had a nice Christmas with the fam and got to see Jake on Skype. He's in my prayers.
