The devil gift bags.

Wade got home from the movies and ate pizza in the kitchen with Cosmo.

Making calendars

Cosmo wanted to help with the ribbon.

Playing pennies

I think Marie won this round.

Hannah was sitting up when I started to take the picture, but she decided we were tiring her out.

Susan and Lily had a good time hanging out in their PJs.

Why did we decide to wait until we looked our worst before taking our group shot? Even Lily and Hannah thought watching tv was more fun than taking pictures.

Christmas 2005

Since so much have happened since I've updated, I decided to break things down in smaller increments. December was a very busy month. We had family Christmas at our house with my family on Christmas Eve. Mama, Daddy, Aaron, Ty, Angie, and Abby came. It was very nice. We were just sad David, Traci, and Lilly Kate couldn't be here.
Then on Christmas Day we went to Mo's. I got to play with Abby most of the day. I think I'm in grave danger of spoiling her (sorry Ty and Angie!).
We spent the 26th with Joe, Brenda, and Matt. That was a little weird for them since they had always been together on Christmas Day for the past 31 years, but Matt had to work on Christmas so we settled for the 26th. We also had good fun there. Matt even gave Cosmo a gift, which Cosmo loved and tore up within 2 days.
Speaking of gifts, Wade and I gifted ourselves with a 42" plasma tv this year. Wow! I never really thought we'd have something like that, but it sure is nice. The only thing is that it has spoiled us to regular tvs. I don't say this to boast; it's just that I'm still pretty excited about it.
I love that mostly we just spent this Christmas season with family and friends and didn't really do so many gifts. Of course we ate too much, too, but we had a good time doing it.

Abby was chewing on this gift, but every time I tried to take a picture she would move. 

I'm not sure why, but I love this picture of me holding Abby up to the ornaments on Mo's Christmas tree. Lara (in the background) also had a good time with Abby. 

Aunt Pam and Matt--or is that Santa? 

Joe and Brenda must have been good this year. 

Cosmo just opened his present from Matt. 

Baby Pictures

This is just a quick post to show off my cute little nieces. I should have more pictures of Lilly Kate soon.

My new niece, Lilly Kate. 

I think Abby likes chewing on Ty's nose a lot better than he does, but this pic is priceless! 

I can play leap-frog now. 

I couldn't be any cuter, could I?
