Merry Christmas!

Manning -age 7, Reesing -age 5, Kawlins -age 2. Christmas time, o' Christmas time. Filled with lots of joy. Started with a secret present drop from Santa's elves on Christmas Eve. Left out cookies & milk for the big guy and after lots of bribing, the 3 very excited kids fell asleep. None of them moved until about 8 am, and then the fury of wrapping paper began. I'm documenting it all on the blog because we were way to busy for photos. The family got an xbox along with two games, Minecraft & Madden. This package was easily Manning's highlight. Reesing's highlight was a Barbie doll that eats and then poops, go figure. And to say that she was excited about this gift was an understatement. We'venever seen someone so excited about cleaning up poop. KU got a sit & spin, and a mermaid doll in addition to a Sophia the First doll that talks. Dad got a new wallet, KU shorts abs a  new book. Mom got a nice necklace, boots and a new beautiful purse, that Reesing picked out. We'll see what the rest of the day brings, but it appears that everyone must've been really good this year! Wishing you all a very Merry Christmas and hopes for a wonderful New Year! Much love to you all and thank you for bring a part of our lives this past year.

Christmas Eve

A fun filled day preparing for the Christmas holiday. It's been a crazy December, but the days have flown by so fast. Our Elf, Frog, flew back soon after the Thanksgiving holiday and it's been fun seeing where he lands each day.

Our creative Dad has also been busy. He's been creating custom coloring book pages for us to color, as we wish. It's definitely encouraged the Christmas spirit.

Ice cream on Christmas Eve. However, somehow KU's shirt got a "nice" check mark instead of a "naughty".  We're still investigating that one. She must've paid off the elf.

Yep...naughty, at least that's what this face says.

Ok, definitely naughty! She looks like she's firing lava hot laser beams through Manning's head.

Santa stopped by on Christmas Day.

Thanks for stopping by Santa! Wishing all of you a very Merry Christmas Eve!

Happy Birthday baby KU!

How does the Urish household celebrate KU's 2nd birthday? We party with shots! Not the party kinda shots you're probably thinking of, but rather a well baby 2year check up filled with shots, compliments of the pediatrician. Kawlins handled the shots like a champ, only shedding a few tears that dried up rather quickly. We did turn the birthday fun around with presents followed by cake and IceCream once the older kids got home from school. The birthday fun was topped off with a special visit from Gamme Linda. Thanks for all the birthday wishes. Watch out world, this 2-year old is on a mission! Thank you Kawlins for all the laughs & tears, yes real tears , that you provide everyday. We love you lots and look forward to watching you grow and blossom this next year! Happy Birthday Baby KU!

 XOXO, Dad, Mom, Manning and Reesing. 

P.S. Could you please start working a little harder on the potty training? Dad says we get a dog once you are potty trained!
