"Lucy, you are walking is good."

Sweet boy.

And yes, we're officially walking! She still crawls to get most places, but she's more than walking from furniture to furniture. When she wonders, she walks. If she's on a mission, she crawls. It's official to me! 14 months....sure beats the 18 months Henry was when he FINALLY took off! ;)

While talking on Lucy's new Princess cell phone...

"Hey Cinderella. What er you doin?"
"I like pepperoni pizza with Daddy."

Go figure.

Santa Pic 2010

A moment to remember...

So...the cutest and most surprising thing happened tonight!

We ran to the mall tonight to pick up a few things. While we were there Henry kept insisting that he go see Santa. We told him that we would get all dressed and go take a picture with Santa this weekend. Well...he had other plans. Henry said he wanted to go see Santa and tell him that he wanted "Legomens". I guess he takes this Santa stuff pretty seriously and wanted to make sure he got his request in. We trucked it to the OTHER SIDE of the mall completely expected Henry to freak out once he actually saw Santa. (You may remember our picture with Santa from last year.)

Well, much to our surprise he was so excited to see him. He waited his turn in line with a huge smile on his face and kept saying, "I want to see him. Henry's turn. I want Legomens." He was absolutely adorable! He had a nice little chat with Santa. Henry told him that he's been a good boy and that he wanted Legomen, a bike, and cars. So cute!

This was surely a moment to remember! (We weren't prepared and had no camera or video, so these 2 cell phone pics are the best thing we've got.)

As the kids got out of the bath last night, I put Lucy's pj's on and then cut her fingernails. Then, I grabbed Henry and said, "Let's cut your fingernails."

Henry says....

"Ummm....no....I want my fingernails on."

Christmas card pics

Sarah took some pictures for us last week for our Christmas card. The kids weren't lasting for long, but she still managed to get some great shots. Of course, I'm not posting the pictures we decided to use, but here are some sweet ones from our little shoot. Thanks, Sarah!

Here is a new "segment" I may try to do with my blog. I can't seem to make myself post very regularly, but I feel like Henry is always saying some of the funniest and sweetest things, and this will be an easy way to document and share those sayings.

Here goes...

As I'm washing the dishes with Lucy screaming under my feet and pulling on my pants to hold her, I yell for Henry (who is playing in the front living room) "Henry, let's go...time for your nap!"

I hear Henry, "Ok...night night toys....night night trucks....night night trains....see you tomorrow!"

So stinkin' cute! In the midst of the craziness it made me stop and smile. What a sweet boy!
