Back to life...back to reality...back to bloggin again!

Since more people have been on Facebook, I haven't been updating the blog.  However, I have had some people ask me to keep the blog updated as well.  It's probably a good idea since there are some people not on Facebook too.

This post will just be pictures/comments from the last few months since my last post.  Enjoy!

Natalie finds her picture on the back of the stroller box at Target - so excited!

Natalie's new bed for her birthday (a few months early) from Nana Kim & Boppa Doug and Grandma Lois & Grandpa Mark.  It's a loft bed - she loves it!

She also loves to sleep UNDER it!

Family Time at Soft Joshie's CD release concert

Just a fun video :)

We visited the new exhibit at the Children's Museum and they had a part about plastic injection - we HAD to take pictures to show Adam!

We got to babysit two Pomeranians - Art and Fluff - Natalie was in love!

Just a cute picture

First trip to Grand Rapids since Fall - and first french braids!

Beautiful picture for her room from Poppie

Cleveland Retreat

The selection of slippers - so comfortable!

Santa made a special visit to us while we were in Wisconcsin, so we left a cookie and some milk out for him.  In return, he left a donut for Natalie.  I think that was her favorite part.

Great Grandpa and Grandma had a "Charlie Brown" Christmas tree outside their house that was so pretty.

Natalie opening up her presents from "Santa"

Ally Cat and Natalie playing together.  More like Natalie playing with Ally while she was trying to get warm by the fire.

Our Gingerbread House - nothing compared to Aunt Pat's, but it was fun to make!

Great Grandpa's first time using Skype on Uncle Brad's iPad - it was fun to watch!

John and Natalie doing lifts

Natalie and Ally "bonding" time.  Natalie was pretending that she was the Mommy and Ally was the kid.

Clutter Christmas 2011

Yesterday was our first Christmas gathering of the year.  We spent the day at Dave and Anissa's with the whole family.

We had appetizers and desserts...

Natalie went to take a "rest" in the girls' room.  She started on the bottom bunk, but when I went to check on her at one point, she had made her way to the top.

Made time for a couple rounds of Guesstures and later on some Catchphrase.

Natalie showing her Uncle Jackson how to play with babies

Making a gingerbread village - Corinne's showing Josh how it's done the right way

Uncle Jackson cracking up at Rich's funny voices

"I want to hold Baby Jackson!"

Jackson thought this present looked good...

...good enough to eat!

She loves to kiss babies!
