Goofing Around

The first pictures are of Amelia and her baby doing what her mommy does best. Then we have a series of goofing around photos, all the kids wrestling with dad, Amelia twirling, Jordan playing with the now absent front tooth, Amelia in her first set of curlers (which we will never do again, she has way to much curl in her hair already and it took two days before it looked like she had any hair) and then we have bath time with Jazz. At the bottom are the only pictures I have of the 80's party we went to for New Years Eve. It was the bomb, Taylor and I were the Karate Kid and Ali (his girlfriend), I wish I had a photo of me from the side view, I don't have bangs (I can pull my layers into a pony)so you can imagine how big that curl was for those totally righteous bangs. I can't believe I didn't have pictures of everyone else that were there. It was a bodaciousally radical party.

She Sits...but she doesn't roll.

It is official, Jasmin sits! I had her at (on) the table with us and she sat there unassisted for at least 5 minutes and then with a little wobble I steadied her by putting my hand on her arm and she was fine for almost ten minutes. She even was reaching over to grab things and looking around at every one else. I am so shocked, the very limited rolling (I can count them on one hand) is not uncommon for my kids, they usually start moving on the late side of average. But the sitting thing doesn't usually happen until eight months or so and even then I have to put pillows around just in case. I think at this rate Jazz will be past the pillows, well, like now. Kids they never cease to amaze!

Vegas Party at the "Babylon Towers" We were supposed to dress like anything you may find in Vegas.

Let it snow

I love the snow, especially here where it generally doesn't last more then a day.

Taylor's birthday, we did a surprise party for him I wish I had taken a picture when we all yelled surprise, he had the most stunned expression. We played this big group game called Werewolves, (which is a lot like Mafia) thus the cake. Jasmin and the dress I made for her.

Bath time, I had all the babe's in the bath but the boys didn't want there necked pictures on the blog.

This is the outfit my mom knit for Jasmin, I love this pattern I can't wait to make more pants for her.
