Apparently Madyson doesn't like pants so she was pant less and had on her slippers and I thought she looked so funny. they looked like moon shoes, or like napoleon dynamites boots in the movie. I had a good laugh!

7 months
Payton just turned 7 months old and he still CAN'T roll over. I know he is slow but he is sitting up for 30 or so seconds or more. Today I placed him in front of the closet door mirror to look at himself and he thought he was so handsome. Then he learned how to do a toe touch while sittingup too, I think it helps him keep his balance. I can't believe he is already 7 months, he is 17. 8 pounds and 28 1/2 inches tall. He is a big boy as far as height goes and just average for weight. He also learned how to hold his little bottles only!!

Once there was a snowman
It was the first time any of us have made a snow man and he may be small but we did it! The snow was icy and hard to work with but it was finally a sunny day. Do you know how hard it is to build a snowman with 3 kids 3 and under? Everything I did they undid because they thought they were "helping" Well he was quite small but he was taller than Payton but shorter than Madyson. He melted in a couple days! Jayden was sad but we had fun making him anyways

Cali so far
Well we have been in California for almost a week and we haven't done a whole lot but I have some pictures of the kids for everyone to see. We are hoping to go to the park sometime and maybe a couple times since the weather was really nice right before we came then it has rained since we have arrived. So maybe more to come.

A Very Merry Christmas
We had a great Christmas, thanks to our families. The kids got any and everything they could have wanted and they probably didn't really understand what was even happening, maybe next year. We woke the kids up ( don't ask me why) at about 8:30 I had to be woken up too, and started with the stockings. It was so fun to watch their faces when they got something cool. Then we opened presents and Jayden helped Payton with his, which he didn't mind opening more presents, would you? After we cleaned up we got dressed and waited for James to make some pancakes for breakfast and then had dinner at about 3. It was good we had ham, turkey breast, raspberry jello, potatoes, gravy, mac n cheese, rolls, and green bean casserole. It was such a nice relaxing day and I am so glad my parents, and sisters could come to our house to celebrate it with us.

Birthday Party
The kids had a combined birthday party in December so we didn't have to do two parties. The kids had a blast and we just got the church gym blew up some balloons, and gave out bouncy balls and necklaces. The kids got some great gifts from all their friends and new bikes from Grandma Bacchus. They were so excited.

POTTY TRAINING!!!
Madyson and Jayden are BOTH potty trained FULLY!! Jayden is finally grasping the concept of pooping in the potty, he has been so terrified and he has gone poop in the toilet for a little more than a week now. I could cry I think he is almost three (Monday) and I can't wait to have two out of diapers and only have one in diapers. I know most people only have one in diapers but in my situation I had 3 in diapers. NOT FUN! And little miss Madyson goes potty all by her self, she has always pooped in the potty so she was actually fully potty trained before Jayden was. She was so easy and pretty much did it herself. The other great thing about her is she takes her pants off by herself and puts them back on. They aren't always on correctly by hey she's only 2. Sorry no pictures I will be getting around to Christmas pictures hopefully soon. Just had to share my great news!!
