Rockin' Demotivator

The spirit may very well be willing...but the instrument is weak.

We are panting sugar cookies. I was going to send Joe one that I painted and one that Lucy painted but as I showed him the cookies this morning on skype Lucy decided she wanted hers back. After she finished hers she ate the one I made so needless to say Joe wont get any sugar cookies from us. It's a good thing Nancy sent him some already.

I put Hailey in with Lucy while I went to get Lucy some milk. I came in and Lucy was laughing. Apparently Lucy took Hailey's pacifier and Hailey took Lucy's finger.

I found keys!

Binkies

We love our binkies!

Bath time

Caroline loves the bubble bath and Em loves to help "wash her." As you can imagine, Em is more of a nuisance than anything. She still freaks out about bath toys. If I put a bath toy in for Caroline Em freaks out screaming and insisting it be removed. Also, if I drop ANYTHING in the tub such as shampoo or a washcloth she goes to pieces. I don't know what it is. And worst of all, she hates baths and showers herself. So, she only really gets one about once a week when I can't stand her odor anymore. I know, we're such great parents.

At least Caroline's a fan!

Watch out...she's coming...
to get you!
Thanks to Grandma Nancy for the "darling" matching outfits for the munchkins. They were so stylin' in them!

Demotivator/Christmas Bonus

Merry Christmas family, in honor of this festive time of year, I wanted to treat you to not one but two Christmas-themed demotivational posters. Feliz Navidad to all, and hope you have a great Chirstmas/New Years.

Italy!

Here are a few highlights from our trip to Italy. I posted more, including inside the vatican museum, on our blog: www.benandmarindashaha.blogspot.com

In front of St. Peter's Basilica
Em finally starting to pull her own weight
Caroline, not as much of a gourmond as she appears to be

Our fancy pants hotel... they served the best breakfast each morning. Em's version of fine dining was a glass of milk and a muffin

The Colosseum



Inside St. Peter's: Michaelangelo's "Pieta" one of the only works he signed.
Em was a real trooper on this trip
Venice!

Demotivational 2

Sorry for the delay, the Internet was down out here for a while, but here is the latest weekly demotivator. Hope all of you enjoy it.

Hailey Jo Shaha

Like the Colonel said, Hailey Jo finally decided to make her debut on the 30th of Nov at 1148. She weighed 7 lbs 10 oz and measured 21 3/4 inches. We are all doing well and just grateful to have her here and that she's healthy.
