Look at me an UPDATE

Wow, I have not posted forever. I have thought about it several times just haven't done it. So this post is dedicated to all the people that have mentioned that I have not updated in a while. This is for you!!! With Aarons basketball, my volleyball, coed volleyball, working for Concord, doing shirts, Aaron working for UPS, young womans, and I think I am forgetting something. Oh yeah two little kids to take care of we have been busy. Life has been good just very busy. Aaden and Aadie are getting so big. Aaden turned 3 last week and Addie is almost 10 months. Time is just flying. With everything else going on we started on our house. Can I just say how excited I am about that. I am ecstatic. My dad and Aaron have worked hard so far. We still have a long ways to go but with every step I get more excited. Our goal is to be in before Christmas. So we will see. We are doing most of the work ourselves so it is slow but in the long run will be so worth it. Below are some pictures of the Coors future home and out little kiddos!!!

These BOYS have some major....

HAIR!!! My two favorite guys in my life have been growing their hair out for about 5 months.


In October Aaron said he wasn't going to cut his hair until his birthday. Well his birthday is on Wednesday and today was the day his hair dresser(Aleesa) was in town so it got cut.


Last week I asked Aaden why he was ignoring me when I asked him to do something and he looked at me and said, "Mom, my hair is so long and covers my ears that I can't hear you." I am not sure where he gets this stuff but after he told me that and I controlled my self from laughing I told him that he was getting his hair cut. Every time he talked to Aunt Aleesa he asked her when she was coming because he needed his hair cut because his hair was terrible. To be honest I was getting used to his hair longer and was kind of sad to cut it, but we can always grow it out again. Plus, he looks so cute with his new due!!!

AFTER

This is all of Aadens Hair!


Addie still has a ton of hair but we will continue to let her's grow out. She has already had her bangs cut once. They need to be cut again but that will have to be next time Aleesa has time to cut hair!!!

An update

I am not very good about updating this thing but things have been boring for us the last couple of weeks. Nothing too exciting. Mostly just staying home so the kids don't get sick. Last weekend we did go to the valley to see Aaron's parents and we all went bowling. Aaden loved it. He bowled most of my games, his own game and even bowled for Michael and Adam when they weren't looking(Michael was a nice uncle and forgave him when he was bowling a 200+ game and on the 10Th round Aaden went and bowled for him when he wasn't looking and got him a gutter ball. Game over. Sorry Michael), he even bowled for some guy next to us that we didn't know(good thing he had kids and understood). It was a lot of fun and with as much bowling as Nana and Papa Coor do I am sure that Aaden will gets lots of practise with them over the years. Addie is now 6 months old and is so active. She started crawling around 5 months and can now get all over the house and pulls her self up on stuff. Aaden shared a piece of his licorice the other day with her and she loved it. Below are pictures of the adventures from the last couple of weeks!!!

She loved the stuff, and was mad at mom when I took it away from her.


Beautiful Smile!!!

Starting them off young!!!

Christmas Pictures

Christmas 2008

I can't believe how fast December has came and went. Christmas was a lot of fun this year. Aaden understood what was going and was so excited for Santa to come. Christmas Eve he got to open his jammie's and usually he likes to stay up late but we told him Santa can't come until he goes to sleep and after he put his new jammie's on he was asleep in like 10 minutes. When he woke up the next morning and saw his gifts and his stocking full. He said, "Santa came, Santa came and he even brought Addie some stuff." I thought it was cute how he was excited that he brought his sister something too. One of his gifts was a big remote control Dinosaur and it scarred him the first time he did it because it came straight for him and roared but once he figured out it was just a toy he was not scarred anymore. After opening presents from Santa and getting ready we headed to my parents house and spent the rest of the day with my entire family. It was a lot of fun and a lot of good food. Now we are ready for the New Year. Our New Years resolution is to be in our new house by next Christmas. We have the footings dug so hopefully by next year we will be in enjoying our new home!!! We hope that all of you had a good Christmas and a Happy New Year!!!

Photography, my newest profession NOT

So last week I decided I would try and take the kids picture's by myself in front of the Christmas tree for our Christmas cards. Trying to get an almost 3 year old and a 6 month baby to corporate is IMPOSSIBLE. My children anyways. I would tell Aaden to just look at the camera and smile while I try to get Addie to smile. I was making all kinds of weird noises(like they do at the place that we get our pictures taken at and it always works)so Aaden decides to make the noises too to try and get Aadie to smile. Instead, Addie turns around looking at him wondering what the heck he is doing so then I start to tell him to just smile and not worry about Aadie. As she is turning to look at him she is slipping down so he decides to get the choke hold on her to hold her position, which then makes her mad and she starts to cry because no body likes to be choked. I finally got a good one of both of them and Addie had throw up on her chin. Goodness, I now know why photographers charge more money for bigger family's with children. I was only trying to get two kids to smile at once, I can't imagine a large group. Below are pictures from the whole experience. I think I will use some and send out on our Christmas card because lets face it. This is everyday life for us!!!














Here are a few more that Aaron and I took together because we thought it would be easier with two adults. It wasn't. So I guess we will just leave the picture taking to the professionals!!!
