This is what the kids do while I am on bed rest

Jackson put the camera where the Wii sensor is, and then brought it up to show me.  I love that Asher is doing this without a Wii remote, and notice Lily's pretty princess dress.
A big thank you to Connor and Jenna for getting us Just Dance 3 for Christmas.  It has provided us with hours of entertainment!

We won the Lottery!

Here is our winning ticket.

(I didn't even know these things could say "yes"!) (and yes, Andrea, I know what you are thinking.)

This is our Prize

Yes!  Baby #4 is on the way.   And we are thrilled to be having another GIRL!

Lily; Cowbee Princess

Readers of this blog, (I think there is like 5 of you) have probably figured out by now that we are IN LOVE with our Lily.  All of us, even Jack and Asher.  It seems like we fall more in love with her all the time.  She just seems to get cuter and cuter each day. 
Right now, she is a "Cowbee Princess."  She loves horses!  Loves them!  She has a pink cowboy hat that she has to wear to bed, that's right, to bed, every night.


She also loves princesses.  This one is so cute.  She has to wear a dress at all times.  The reason?  You never know when you might need to dance, and she must be wearing a dress to dance so she can twirl and hold on to her hem.  She loves to have a dance partner.  She makes her brothers dance with her all the time, and she loves to dance with her dad.  Mitch will pick her up and dance with her.  She will sing, throw her head back and close her eyes.  Sometimes when he is lucky, she will even give him a little kiss at the end of the song.  Those are the moments, those are the moments. 
She goes back and forth on which princess she wants to be.  Usually it's "Rora" (Aurora) "punzel" (Rapunzel) or "No White"  (Snow White.)  Occasionally I can get her to be happy with a dress or skirt and tell her she is Princess Lily ("Pincess NeNe).
I caught her one afternoon playing in her room with her horses, and got a few shots, I just want to freeze her in this stage forever.  She is so much fun.

She took a break from the horses to play her piano for a little while. She is quite the little singer, which is, of course, music to my ears.Then it was back to the horse. Notice her purse. It is a My Little Pony purse, this also must accompany her to bed each night. She says "Yee ha! Giddiyap Cowbee!"  This is her "Bad Bart" face, (I think she looks like Owen Wilson.)Just the other night, Mitch took the camera and took pictures of Lily, just before bedtime. She is wearing the "Punzel" dress, notice, the hat, the purse and of course, the horse that is way too small for her. How much do I love this girl!Since this is a Lily post, I want to take a second and mention some of the cute things she says now.
The other day when I put her pig tails in, she reached up and felt them and said, "cute"
She says, "Thankoo mommy, thankoo much." (whenever we feed her) "I love you so much, Daddy/Mommy," "I nuggie, with you?" (snuggle)  "I wanna rock out!" (in reference to using Asher's guitar)
