new pics

Lincoln started smiling about a week and a half ago. This is as close as I've come to catching it on camera. We are staying busy and enjoying everyone. Here are some random pics over the past month or so.

Zoie's new big girl bed.

Say cheese

Playing outside in December.

Zoie, only color paper! OK mom.

Dirty, naughty Libby. Digging lots of holes in the red Oklahoma dirt.

Note the dirt on the feet.

New House

Well, we found a new house and are set to close in 2 weeks. Seems things are going really fast with this move so I guess it was meant to be. Our house sold with a close date set only 3 weeks out. We will close on this house on a Friday and the new one the following Monday. Pictures to come of the new house upon arrival and perhaps warm weather for outside shots.
It seems timely as Zo learned how to climb out of her crib Sunday afternoon. It seems she is ready for her new room with a big bed. I hope the transition is smooth. We have been struggling a bit with bedtime and nap since Thanksgiving.
Things are likely to be a little busy around here so this may be it until after the holidays. If so,
MERRY CHRISTMAS.

CHRISTMAS TREE

Zoie's little pink tree.
We decided to forgo our tree since it would only be up 3 weeks or less and would be coming down at least 1 week before Christmas. We had already talked about doing a mini tree in Zo's room and decided to go for it since she is so into all the decorations this year.

She was very excited to see it and help with decorating.
We had to go with the pink, it was just too cute to resist.

SOLD

Well, offer accepted at least. We are very thankful this Thanksgiving for so many things as always, especially that we accepted an offer on our house on Wed night. We had just finished making a game plan for what we would do in Jan when Kelly starts in OK when we received an email from our realtor that we would be receiving an offer later. We are so blessed as the timing is perfect. We will close in 3 wks and be homeless for a short time, but this time of year you can't be picky. Isn't our God amazing.

snow day

We had a small amount snow yesterday and since it wasn't freezing cold, we decided to head out to play. It was pretty dry so we built a mini snowman. It took forever just to get him to be this size. Zoie loved him. She hugged and kissed him probably 30 times - too cute.
