Where are the Lemans??

Well we haven't posted in a while for a good reason....
Computer crashed!

Love technology but also hate it.

Apple is trying to retreive as much photos and video off our computer before trying to repair the hard drive. I'm sick to my stomach of all we might of lost. Specially videos. Luckly a lot of our photos were up loaded to kodak gallery.

Anyways, I continue to take photos of the kids and the family, but unable to get them loaded on to our blog site. You all may have to wait until the 7th of January - that is the scheduled date to get it back.

The boys have officially started their winter break yesterday and are off until the 4th of Jan. They were so excited and each had two friends spend the night. They ate pizza, played chase, Wii, chased some more, had ice cream sundays, played tag and had them in bed by 10:30 but when I went into check on them at midnight they were still awake...couldn't believe it.

Grace is growing and is changing so fast. We just recently had a well check up and she is 25+" tall and 17lbs. Sitting up on her on and is able to take herself to tummy or side and rolls all over the place, but still can't get back into sitting position...that will come and in no hurry. Everything is going in her mouth to, so I have daily reminders to the boys about there toys and where they leave them. A baby's laughter is so priceless. We all are getting such a kick out of her laughter and the boys love it when they can get her going specially when scaring her.

Hope you all are enjoying your families during this Christmas month as much as we are.

Merry Christmas!

Trying new things...

Introducing Grace to rice cereal.  I was hoping to hold off until after the holiday season, but she has been waking up during the night multiple times and wanting to eat.  This was her 2nd night of eating right before bath and bed time.  I really don't know if she is swallowing more then she is wearing, but she is liking it.  It also seems to helping with sleeping too.  The boys have also gotten to help with feeding and are having fun watching her get all messy.

I think our little star is also teething so she has been enjoying this new toy.  I can put ice cubs inside it and she can chump on it.  She gets a little wet, but loves it.

Nico is letting us use his beautiful high chair and Grace gets to sit in it when I'm working around the kitchen or sitting down to eat.  I think she thinks she is big like the boys, because she gets so excited at dinner time.  Thanks Nico for sharing.

Shopping and Shopping

Mom and Felisa came to town for the day.  It was so nice to spend time with them but it always goes way to fast.  Great sales going on at the mall...feel like I need to look over my Christmas shopping list for family.

Thanks for coming up ladies!

Love you bunches!

I want CANDY!

Grace tries her first cherry sucker this evening and loved it!  Got upset every time she dropped it or I took it away. Ended up taking her straight to bath time...

She was sticky and so was I.

Trick or Treat!

Happy Halloween!

Our day was full of soccer games and tricker treating.  We had a wonderful time.  Grace slept during most of the evening while the boys were out get their sugar highs.

Thanks for your help!

CONGRATULATIONS JACK!

Jack just found out that he got 2nd place at Tarkington Tradtional with his candy sales.  He won $50 and gets to go to a pizza party this Friday.  Jack had sold 5 boxes of candy bars, which each box contained 52 bars of candy.   260 bars of chocolate was what he sold between Woodland Hills neighbors, Autumn Ridge neighborhood, the fantastic crew at Gibson Insurance and super buyers from his grandparents and aunts/uncles.

He is ssssooooooo excited!
