Brody's first trip to the Dentist

Today was Brody's first trip to our dentist, Dr.Love. (i know it sounds more like he should be a marriage counselor, but he is a REALLY GOOD dentist) Mommy went first, so he had to be patient and wait for 45 minutes while I had my cleaning and check up. That way he could also 'check it out'. He was anxious to get in the chair when it was his turn...

(the pics are from my blackberry, so not great quality...) Good to Go!

He was opening his mouth like a dinosaur...his words...

He did awesome!! Listened very well and really liked the Dentist!
NO CAVITIES...and a new CARS toothbrush to take home, woohoo!!

Viva la Mexico!!

We just got back from Mexico last weekend...it was definitely a week in paradise! Scott's mom came with us as well and we all had an amazing time...how can you not with sun, sand and sea? The resort was awesome and there was lots to do with the kids. Brody and Sienna were swimming every day, playing at the resort's playground, and spending all their time with Nanny, Mommy and Daddy...can't wait to go again!!

Nanny and her grandbabies.

Me and my favorite man....

Brody was all about Nanny while she was here...he barely let her out of this sight!

The pool was definitely the favorite place to be!

Where's the beach?? Let's go!

nice to be playing in a bikini in January!!!

Christmas is coming...

Brody and Sienna visiting with Santa...Brody was mesmerized, but Sienna was still a little iffy...next year she will be more excited I think....
Last weekend it was our turn to get into the Christmas spirit at the annual Husky Christmas Gala...we always look forward to it! We go with the Gale's and make it a family affair since 3 of us work there. It was fun as usual!!

We are looking forward to the busy times in the next couple of weeks. We wish everyone a wonderful Christmas...stay warm, safe and have fun!

Brody's 3rd Birthday!!

It has been FOREVER since I made a post...life is just insanely busy. Brody had his 3rd birthday on November 16th and we celebrated with a party at the Leisure Centre. The kids ran around in the jungle gym for an hour and then we had lunch and cake in the room next door. Everyone had a good time, it was fun, the kids blew off some steam and I'm sure all had a good nap when they got home! I would highly recommend this to other parents, especially for the price!!

Natasha and Riley going through the caterpillar tunnel.

Olivia having fun too!

Sienna trying so hard to keep up with her brother!

Of course Opa had to go down the slides with the kids too!

Mini burgers and fries for lunch with b-day cake for dessert...

Time for some presents!

Halloween Pumpkins

Brody was ready to go! He loved carving pumpkins! He drew his own design on his pumpkin and then I cut it out for him...it turned out pretty cool!!

Brody and Sienna checking out our masterpieces...

Having some fun with Halloween masks....they don't even get scared of these masks...
The first time Scott had one on I jumped out of my skin...guess I'm a pansy...

The boys and their pumpkins...

They turned out really cool...nice and simple....

Next year we will have to get four, so our little Girlie can have her own,

Randomness

Brody being silly. It's a dinosaur flexing his muscles....
Sienna's new "hat" and Mama's worst nightmare...

Sienna's 'evil' look. Brody and Sienna love sitting together to watch

their before bedtime show in their PJ's.

OUR NEW FAMILY WALL!!

I think the earrings made her brave.......

Sienna has suddenly found some confidence in her walking....she is walking all over the house now....must be the earrings..... OR maybe she was just waiting for Oma and Opa to be back from holidays....

Sienna's Big Day!

We had an appointment today at Merle Norman to get Sienna's ears pierced!!

I was a little nervous, but Sienna had no clue...

She waited patiently and with a little bit of coaxing let the girls mark her ears.
Here the girls are ready to go and I love the look on Sienna's face. She is still smiling and keeping her eye on the girl fiddling with her ear. Sienna did great!

After about 30 seconds of crying and a little snuggle with Mama, she was alright.
As soon as Daddy took her fer a walk into the mall, she forgot about what happened!
When we got back to the truck after lunch she quickly fell asleep after all the excitement!!

We got her little white gold cubic zirconia studs

Here is the result....right ear....

And her left ear......our little princess......
