Lunch gone incredibly wrong...
The boys helping in the kitchen...
So it has pretty much been since Thanksgiving since we posted last. Time flies. The kids are getting excited for Christmas to come(Grant tells us everyday how many more days are left). Brig managed to pull off a stocking which was connected to a heavy stocking holder and got a quick lesson in gravity! It is a constant battle to keep Claire and Brig out from the tree. In other news Claire is potty training, Hooray!!! She is going to have her teeth rot out of her head with all of the treats she is getting for going though. She got a very beautiful dress for Christmas and loves to wear it!! Grant keeps us laughing. A few weeks ago, the kids were in bed and we heard Grant yelling something. We went in and he was saying, "Extolame! Extolame!" Appearantly he had seen a kids' show with some Spanish in it and Grant said the translation is Help! He had fallen down into the space next to his bed against the wall and was being silly. He says he wants to be a scientist...Ho Boy. Brig is pretty much a giant parakeet. He will repeat or copy words or actions shown to him by Grant and Claire, or his parents. Case in point, Audrey was driving the other day and the car was stopped at a Stop sign and Brig shouted, "Go people! Go people!", in a frustrated voice. Wonder who he got that from...The kids love Christmas songs and a favorite is Rudolph. Claire insists that it goes, "All of the other Raindeer used to laugh and call him Nate." Merry Christmas to all, and to all a good night!

Sounds like the kids keep you busy. Love the coloring on the legs with marker. We have not had that one yet. Give us a few months though! Have a great Christmas!
Love hearing about your latest adventures!!! We're so proud of Claire and her success, Brig's artistic creation and why does it not surprise me that Grant wants to be a scientist?? You'll never know how much we miss you all. xoxo Mom
Y'all look great, about time for some pictures! We love seeing pictures of you guys. Claire's dress is so cute. Poor Brig with the stocking holder, but I guess now he knows ): Grant and his Spanish-speaking practical jokes, wow are you guys in for it or what? That is such a hilarious story, hopefully you wrote it down Auds!
We miss you. Especially on Christmas, but next year you'll be here. Love you guys. Have a wonderful Christmas, take pictures and post them, please!
