Winter Fun

Emma LOVES it outside! Liam can't move in all the gear in snow so she gets mad that he doesn't want to go out and play with her! Today she got daddy to play with her and that is much more fun then playing with Mommy and Liam

Looks like they were both having fun:)

Proud of her snowman!  I think it will be a sad sad day when this begins to melt... In June:)

Wrapping up 2012

2012 was another fun filled year with Emma and Liam! Emma has learned so much and has developed so much over this past year!  She amazes me daily with things that she says... I often wonder where did she learn that!!!  Luckily all good things;)  Liam well he went from a wobbling one year to a full blown toddler!!!  In a good way ;) He is very very active and must have very strong bones with the way he jumps and falls off of things:)  We are looking forward to another great year and MANY MANY more memories being made!!!  Happy New Year. 

Some of the favorite things from this year!!

BIRTHDAYS!!

 

 Cousin Ava came for a visit!!!

The kids had to show her around Papa's store!!!

Spring and Summer brought lots of outside time, fun at the park with friends, water time and LOTS of swimming!!

 Summer would not be complete without several trips to Skaneateles as well!

 This summer we got to crash Kim and Eric's Family vacation with a day trip to Old Forge in the Adirondacks.  Everything about it was gorgeous!  The weather, the lake the mountain and the great memories! 

Time for a BIG girl bed!!

FALL FUN!!

Loved the many trips to the Apple Orchard and Pumpkin farms

Someone started preschool!!

HAPPY NEW YEAR!

 

Let It Snow Let It Snow Let It Snow!!!

I spy DADDY!!!!

The snow may get old come March, April and May but in December it is GORGEOUS!  I just love seeing all the trees with snow on them and watching the snow fall.  As a kid I remember a few years without snow and on Christmas morning my mom would shut the shades because it couldn't be Christmas without snow!  I am so happy that so far Emma and Liam have been able to experience the extra magic snow brings to Christmas morning and the Christmas season!

 

We didn't have snow until the 22nd it started to snow and once it started... well it really hasn't stopped.  We got about 14-16 inches in one night and it just keeps snowing on and off!!
The kids have enjoyed it!  Liam has trouble moving around because it is so deep but Emma has no trouble at all!

Looking up to see when the storm is coming... They say 12+ inches will they be right????

YES YES THEY WERE

It was VERY windy and Liam did not like that!  He wanted to be outside so bad but couldn't take the wind... and he was sick!

This snow bunny could handle the wind and the snow!!!!

 Trying to make a snow angel like his sister:)

LOVING it!!!

 Liam trying to catch up to Emma... not so easy!!

 Rosey cheeks and noses and time to play with the train! 

 In Style of Course (re: Emma's sunglasses!  All cool people wear sunglasses inside:)!!)

YOU ARE FUNNY!!!
