Wintry Morning Fun

The Once-in-a-Blue-Moon snow has arrived!

As evidenced by these photo's the kids were thrilled :)

Actually

Hello everyone!

Here are a few glimpses into life here at the Apodaca maison.

Update: "Actually" is Abby's new word.

She actually sounds pretty cute when she says it.

Above are Abby's actual braids (which were actually done by yours truly, Mama)

As a response to the drastic weather change,

the kids decided to follow instinct and make a fort!

Actually, Joshua managed to knock it down only three times :)

Here is Abby again....

...claiming she has clean hands,

"I'm pretty sure my hands are clean, actually"

Actually, you're really cute, and I would like to eat you.

Joshua's Birthday Surprise

A special thanks to Blogger for putting these is reverse order,

so if you would, please enjoy this post backwards!

Thank you Grandpa Steve and Nana~ let the fun begin!

So excited!

His patient siblings closing in for the surprise...

Joshua begins the unwrapping process...

Jacob, the current sole literate sibling, reads the birthday card for this now two-year-old...

Five Months

Our precious Rebecca Nicole is now five months and what a change!

She is a joy and delight;

Happy and very ticklish (Just like her big brother Jacob)!

Here she is at four, (sorry no three months!), two, and seven weeks,

time goes by so quickly.

Fun at the Park

Abby at the Top!

Careful and determined, she makes her way up--all by herself!

A experienced and happy Noah.

Life Around the House

Abby and Joshua playing "And Can It Be?" after a great time playing dress-up.

Yes, it can be: Abby and Noah are playing well together.

Hopefully a prelude of many more times to come!

Sweet Rebecca Nicole
