January started off with Luke's 3rd birthday.
We celebrated by going to the Galleria and riding the carousel, playing on the hot dog truck & enjoying our favorite mall treat, a cinnamon sugar pretzel.
The overly cautious birthday boy passed by all the reindeer and instead chose the nice
and very safe sleigh to ride in.
The birthday boy's sister, a dare devil at heart,
was thrilled to get to ride a reindeer.
Despite the non-moving nature of the sleigh,
Luke loved every minute of the ride.
Aubrey getting excited about the cinnamon sugar pretzel.
On almost a nightly basis, Ryan and the kids
enjoy a bowl of popcorn.
As soon as the kids hear the popcorn popping in the microwave they each go to the cabinet
and get out their own bowl.
Ryan figured out pretty quickly that Aubrey
was not into sharing her popcorn.
We've had a candy jar full of Christmas M & M's
this month, and every once in a while,
I'll give one to the kids.
I picked up Aubrey one day and put an M & M in her mouth, she looked at me with the most serious face,
held out two fingers just like this:
and exclaimed, "two!".
I couldn't resist the adorable face, so I of course obliged.
So, that's what we've been up to this month...as well as cleaning, reorganizing and preparing for baby # 3.
We hope he makes his arrival in a few weeks!
