I'm such a slacker lately (that explains the out of order, LONG post). Being a Mom of three is definately a lot harder than I expected but I wouldn't trade it for anything! Life would be so boring without the little kiddos. I'm slowly getting the hang of things.

I think the only thing Weston did was eat candy and watch me decorate. He loved tasting every single piece

Santa came to visit Grandma and Grandpa Bowen's house again and the kids loved it!! They got to sit on his lap and tell him what they wanted for Christmas and then Santa gave them a present. They had such a blast, I think it was the most fun they've had in a long time. Thanks Grandpa and Grandma!

Grandma and the kids reading the neatest
Santa story. My Mom got the book when she was about three or four and she still has it so she reads it to the kids every year and they enjoy it so much. It's a fun tradition.

Just the

Grandma and Grandpa always do the twenty four days of
Christmas. It is so much fun for the kids. They have to do their chores before they can open their presents so they get everything done so quickly. I love it. It's the very best part of the day for these two!

These guys are so much fun to have around. I feel like such a lucky person to be the Mom of these three amazing kids.
