First Snow

Natalie holding Gabby up.  Poor Gabby looks as uncomfortable as they come!!

Gabby is a cute little Eskimo

Natalie was enjoying the swings at 7:45 a.m.  We had to catch the snow before it all melted! :)

Thanksgiving 2010

This Thanksgiving was spent very similarly to last year.  We started the morning by playing in our PJs. Natalie and Gabby played on the Aquadoodle for a good solid hour. Gabby absolutely loves it. 

After aquadoodle got boring for Natalie she had a Dance party.  You can look behind Natalie and see the destruction Gabby can do in about 5 min flat.

After a morning of playing we went to our friends "The Phillipy's" just like we did last year!!! We had a great feast of Fried Turkey, Carrot Souffle, Stuffing, Potatoes, Green Beans and of course Dessert!!

Natalie had her own little table

Gabby enjoyed eating her food! She was very thankful to be eating real food!

Almost a month with no pictures

It is amazing but I have gone almost a full month without taking hardly any pictures. For almost 2 weeks Gabby was sick but other than that I have no excuse but for the fact that we have not really done anything. I need to get better at documenting because Gabby is getting so much bigger.  Natalie tested for Senior Blue Belt today and did amazing. Not much longer and she will be a black belt!

This is what I found one morning while cleaning up breakfast. She got the tissues and tore them up along with eating some in the process. She was sick here and you can see it in her little face.

Look how big I am.  Terrorizing Natalie who was playing dress up and school.

This is what Gabby does to the Kitchen.  Fun for Mommy.

My mother loves this shirt.  

Gabby wanted some of her Fathers Pita Sandwich today.  I think she really enjoyed it.

Yes, she really liked it!

Miss Priss during her Senior Blue Belt test.

Focus

Getting ready to spar. She has the pads on and everything.

She was happy!!!

She had to kick break the board today. Unfortunately she was not able to break it. I think we need to practice some more.

Yes another level higher.

Trying to show the curls that are starting to appear at the back of her head.

Me for a change??

I'm rarely in pictures, but mom snapped this one of  Gabby and me while she was in Korea.  Unfortunately, Gabby does not look like me :)

Tutu Young

I guess dressing up in tutus starts early!  Looks like Gabby is having a blast in her dress up clothes

Fancy Natty

Natalie's school had a storybook character parade the end of October. The children dressed up as their favorite storybook character and paraded around the school.  It was no surprise that Natalie wanted to be Fancy Nancy!!! :)  Last year she was Pinkalicious, I wonder what she will be next year!

Angel Wings

Gabby has earned her angel wings, or at least Carter's thought so!!

How to watch T.V.

This is how Gabby likes to watch t.v. when something catches her attention.  I think I need to try harder to break of her of this little habit.  Soon after the last picture was taken, Gabby found a red stamp that belonged to her sister. She tried to eat it.  I found her covered in red ink from head to toe and with the stamp in her mouth.  I immediately took her to the bathroom to wash her mouth out fearful that it might make her sick, and didn't take a picture.  She is going to keep me on my toes!

Masquerade Ball

Natalie went to a Masquerade Ball with her father a few weeks ago.  They had the time of their lives and Natalie really loves these special moments. As you can see they were coordinating.  Natalie had a blue and purple mask and was wearing silver so Rick made sure he wore a grey suit and blue shirt to match her.  So cute!

The formal pose

Posing!

Twirling around

She will be a great waitress with that pose

Not liking the fact that I wanted a picture of this cute outfit we got here in Korea!
