Charli Marie loves her new dollhouse bookshelf that her Pop and Nan gave her for Christmas. It looks so cute in her room.

She also enjoys laying/playing on her soft giraffe mat from Mama Ann. She will sit on it in the den and pull all of her toys out of the basket-too funny to watch her spread them everywhere. She is growing up way too fast!
Havey likes to read his Accelerated Reader books to Charli Marie before he goes to school. She really wanted to get a grip on the pages!

This was one of SL's toys when he was a baby. He and Havey both loved it then and now all three kids love it! It has a fan that blows balls up and out of the top and then the balls all spiral back down into the machine to go again. However, Charli Marie likes to turn it toward her and have all of the balls shoot out at her face/body (it's okay-they come out gently) and then have the air blow in her face! The air is blowing on her in this photo- that's the reason for the funny facial expression and wind blown hair (the little bit of hair she has left)!
This is what she likes to do with the balls once they come out!! Too funny- she can almost get the whole thing in her mouth! It is as if she is saying, "What mom, isn't this what these balls are for?!"Look at those big eyes and long eyelashes that go along with that big smile!
Now she has dropped the ball and moved onto her favorite thing- PUP! Pup is a wubanub


Charli Marie loves our wiener dog! He can run past her shile she is upset and all is better! He adores her too-when she is upset, he runs to the rescue. One night before her bath we let her give and get some Kringle lovin'! She pulled his ears, nose, tail, whatever she could get ger little hands on and he loved it. He has tollerated this when both of the boys where babies too! We have had him since the year before Havey was born, so he is an old pro at this baby thing!Okay, for those of you who know what kind of clean fanatic I am, this picture came as a surprise I know! (We have hand cleaner everywhere- you can never be too clean) This photo was luckily caught on camera- look at that tongue! Gross, but too cute! She had just eaten sweet potatoes and apparently there was still some on her face. She got a really good bath after all of this fun!

Santa left a note for the boys to go to the Humane Society to pick out their cat (it was too cold for it to ride in the sleigh on Christmas Eve). This is the boys with Dave, they picked him from 3 kittens and several adult cats. They renamed him Jingle so it sounded more like a Christmas cat.The boys wanted me to post these pictures of Jingle, the cat they got for Christmas. He was so cute and playful. We had him for about a week. Super sad, he died on Monday. Somehow he got under the car while I was backing out of the garage to go get the kids from school. This was horrible, not the easiest thing to tell your kids when you pick them up from school. They dealt with his death really well and understood it was an accident-thank goodness.
We took the boysto Chuck-e-Cheese in Tupelo over the holidays. The had a ball playing all the games and eating pizza! We only take them to the place of fun twice a year- before school starts in August and before they go back in January!
Even Charli Marie had fun! She played her own games with her toys!

The boys help Charlie Marie open her present on her 1/2 year birthday!
She is way more into the remote than the new toy, maybe because SL is figuring it out/playing with it first!
She finally gets her hands on her new toy!

Look at this sad face, but it is the only one I could get to show off her new Pearly Whites!
This is what she kept doing while I tried to snap the above picture. That is my camera strap she is chewing on- she kept grabbing it! Everything goes in her mouth these days!
The boys have a "blast" going to pick out fireworks with Ben on New Year's Eve! They love to build a fire and then shoot all of their fireworks! Now they cannot wait until the Fourth of July to shoot some more!

The kids enjoyed the Gingerbread House they made! No, Charli Marie did not eat any, she just had fun trying to get some cookie too!
Happy Birthday, Jesus! The boys always have so much fun making a birthday cake for Jesus on Christmas day!
