Ferdinand

This is where Ferdinand has decided he likes to nap. For a cat, he has a odd fascination with water. He will run towards the water when he hears it, he likes to try to drink from the tap and he will stay put in the sink even if Lucas turns the water on. So odd, this kitten of ours! Oh, and at 6 months he is bigger than bootylicious,

bowling

The kids were invited to a birthday bowling party recently. It was so much fun! I can't wait to plan a night out for the family to go bowling! Amelia won her game with 67 points! She even picked up a spare. Go Amelia! And the center pic was not planned at all. Lucas was watching his ball roll down the lan and Amelia walked over and stood by him to watch. Love them!

Sweet Memories

Love these candids of the kids with Santa!

Christmas kickoff - 2011

I think the Macy's Christmas kickoff is going to officially be our way to start the christmas season. We have went every year - each year we have had a great time. Due to occupy st louis, the celebration was moved to the city garden this year - but it was still a lot of fun, They had carolers, dancers. and of course - santa!

not sure Lucas was a fan - maybe next year!
