We are moving!!!

Ok, not to a new house. But the blog is moving to notthebossame.blogspot.com I have always hated that our blog address doesn't include Addy. So we are moving to my girls' favorite saying "You're not the boss 'a me!" (Shortened to "Notthebossame")

See you there!

Our Livingroom Idols

Here are Hayley & Addy competing for this year's Allen Livingroom Idol. ;)

We are home!

We got home on Saturday and then today got a clean bill of health from the pediatrician.

Here is her smiling face for some reassurance. (Notice the Thomas jammies. She LOVES her Thomas!!!)

Prayers for Addy

We are in the hospital night #2 with Addy. She has RSV and is having a hard time keeping her oxygen levels above 90% while she is sleeping.

So, please pray that she does well tonight so we can go home tomorrow.

Christmas Pageant

On Wednesday night the kids were rehearsing for the pageant. I heard this beautiful little voice singing, looked up to realize it was Sydney.

Today the weather has been horrible. Winds, blowing snow, we got stuck in our driveway trying to pull out to go to the pageant (I was able to rock out of it), but it was all worth it! There is something about hearing the story from the mouths of these sweet children that is just magical.

So here is Sydney singing about seeing the star.

Knight or Night???

When we were home for Thanksgiving my mom took Sydney, Hayley, and me to see a local production of Amal and the Night Visitors. It's a great Christmas story of the 3 Wise Men who stop at the home of a Widow and her son, Amal.

Well, the girls have been practicing for their Christmas Pageant at church and Hayley informs me that she is going to be Knight. I figured maybe there was some special production going on or something until she said, "Remember. Like the knights in Amal." ;)

NIGHT visitors, but Hayley in her world of princesses and queens and kings, she thought they were KNIGHT visitors.

At what point ??

At what point do kids recognize themselves in pictures or the mirror? Addy just looked at the picture below of her and Sydney and said, "Baby has my telephone!"

No matter how many times I remind her that that is HER, she still says baby. In the Halloween pictures, I pointed to Syd, she says, "Sydney!" I point to Hayley, she says, "Hayley!" I point to her and she says "Baby!"

She must wonder why we have so many pictures of that baby!
