Christmas

Best present by far was Vic coming home for about 5 days!
couldn't have enjoyed it more!

My parents gave the babies Johnny jump ups and they LOVE them!! (i love them too)

The twins blessing

Vic came back from Spain for only 5 days so we were unable to have the traditional Sunday blessing for the babies so we just got my family together and did them at my grandpa's house. It was short and sweet and very casual.

My family. I can't believe how big my older boys are getting!

My siblings. Not too often are we all together.

the whole gang... minus Scott. It is finally not MY husband missing from the picture!

my awesome sisters. really couldn't ask for a greater family.

Great grandpa Mont, Grandpa Mac and Grandma Mac.

Halloween.

Jiovan had a little Halloween party at school. this was his caramel apple. He was so proud of it.

They had storytime.

They also went trick-or-treating to the surrounding businesses. This is Jovi's little bestie.

Jiovan and corbin trick-or-treating (this is the first year they were really excited about going)

Captain Hook and Peter Pan

Captain Hook, Peter Pan and a couple of monkies.

Xavier's first on camera smile.

They rode in style trick or treating. Pulled mostly by there uncle Josh.

lately....and thoughs of going private.

I've been crazy busy.
had surgery, again. A non cancerous tumor removed from my abdomen.
all is well now, just haven't been able to lift over 10 lbs. which means I can't lift the babies.
My family has been amazing. couldn't do it without them.
Nov 1st I will be able to have them all to myself again. can't wait!

I have been considering going private. Seems like it's the thing to do these days.
What do you think? I seem to not check them as much since i don't get notified when they make a post. So I hate when people do it. but it just seems the time to do so.

photo update with few words (for my remembering haha)

we attended the NICU reunion. was nice but i still couldn't hold my babies so they stayed in the whole time so no one could really see them.

Corbin shooting hoops... perfect form. every time. ONE PROUD MOMENT!

my niece Avery. Such a good helper. Not the first time she's been found napping with a baby.

Corbin looking for "the lost boys" from Peter Pan

the babies got a special package from my friend in Belgium. Perfect for them!

Andre at the Park. They are getting so fat!! love it!

Corbin and my nephew Kyler. He's so fun to have around!

How could i pass up putting an elastic in his hair... he hated it until i told him i wanted a picture.
