That Isaiah has been sleeping in his own bed in his own room for 3 1/2 weeks now!!! YEA!!!
It all started when I just could not sleep anymore. Between Isaiah and the baby kicking it was crazy. So we put his bed in his room....there were tears, but he did great! He comes in once or twice a night...and we just walk him back and he goes right back in his bed. Sometimes he doesn't come in at all.
We did have to get him a digital clock. He was waking really early and I remember his cousin Cade did that. They got him a clock and told him it had to say 6 before he could get up. We did the same thing and works like a charm. Thanks Carrie:) (As I am writing this...I just heard his footsteps into my room...LOL!)
He is such a big boy!

Christmas!!
We hope you all had a very blessed Christmas. We really enjoyed our Christmas together as a family, but it is always tiring from all the running around and cleaning. HA HA! Here are some pictures from the last couple of weeks preparing us for Christmas!
Pa and Isaiah with our tree. Well our first tree. This one they cut down, we bought it home, put it up and...down it went. LOL! So we bought a different one. Oh well the kids had fun!
A Christmas Brunch with our neighbors.
More tree cutting ones.
Making cut out cookies with the kiddies:) They had such a blast!
The kids and neighbors at brunch!
Our cookies!!
Grandma's little helper!
Ice skating at the rink in EA. So much fun. Isaiah is really getting good and faster every time.
More cookies.
More skating. Hope is getting good too!
She actually used this for a minute! Ha Ha!
Getting our tree....Hope was freezing!

Quick Catch Up....maybe not so quick!
Isaiah and Hope have been taking Mommy, Daddy, and Me Ice Skating classes. Really it is Daddy and Me since I am not about to put on ice skates. LOL! I can't believe how great the teachers are and how fast they are learning. Isaiah could walk/skate before he started. But now he can skate pretty fast, get up when he falls down, jump on skates, and kick a ball or puck with his skates. Hope didn't like it too much the first week. I think because the instructor took her the whole time and she likes to be with her Daddy. But this week....she skated by herself from the instructor to her Daddy!! She did cry a little in the beginning but then stayed on longer than her brother!! She is also very good at kicking a ball or puck with her skates! I cant' wait to see them next week...I missed this week because I had a doctor appointment.
We also started praying together as a family at night about a month ago. We used to pray with whoever we put to bed since they go to bed at different times, but decided to do it together. It is so sweet how they want to pray and have both become very good at praying. It is so sweet to witness and really makes my heart smile. They are both growing so fast!
I am now 31 1/2 weeks pregnant. I don't know how many of you know but...I was in the hospital again the other day!! We were out to dinner for Dave's work Christmas party and my back started to hurt really bad. Now this is now unusual since I have had a lot of back pain with this pregnancy. I couldn't walk around the mall that's how bad is was (since I love to shop...he he!) Anyway, we went home and I tried to sleep. I kept getting woken up by severe stabbing in my back. I couldn't sleep! So I finally called the doctor at 4 am and headed into the hospital. I was having contractions but they did a lot of tests and said that they are 99% sure I will not deliver in the next 2 weeks. I probably will even go late they said! HA HA! I believe them. I was exhausted that day. Thank God my mom was there to help out. She came at 4 and left after I napped for a bit. Very scary but just glad that we are OK. I need to go to my chiropractor since I haven't been in a long time...but of course he is on vacation this week. My back is still killing me. Any ideas to help with back pain would be greatly appreciated! :)
Dave...
Last week he and Randy went to NYC and Boston for business. Of course he had to fly home on the day that we have a snow storm. I kept telling him to do what he thinks is best. He did take a flight home....but they circled Buffalo for a long time. They tried to land twice and then headed to Syracuse. He was texting me as he was in the air. I was so worried about him! Flying freaks me out. Anyway, when they got to Syracuse they were going to refuel and try again. Dave and Randy decided to get off the plane and drive. I was a little scared because roads were closed, there were white-outs and Dave is not a good driver at night...he always falls asleep. Well thank God they drove!! Their flight went back to Buffalo and circled for an hour and ended up in Philly where they had to spend the night. They didn't get into Buffalo until the next afternoon!! And Randy is such a trooper and drove the whole way home....and of course Dave couldn't keep his eyes open! LOL! So thankful they were OK. I was definitely on my knees praying that whole night. So scary!
Other than that....we have been busy with Christmas shopping and wrapping. I have to buy one more gift after I post this and then I am done!! And all my wrapping is done!! I had to do a little at a time because my back cannot handle it that long.
Hope you are all doing well and enjoying your Advent season.

Isaiah's 4th Birthday Party!
I cannot believe Isaiah is 4! That is so crazy to me. He is growing up so fast. He looks like such a big boy when I look at him....no more baby. He is quite the character too. He is funny and comes up with some of the funniest things. He is always thinking and trying to solve problems.
Here are some pictures from his bowling party. We all had a blast!
Oh a picture with our turkeys!
Hopey so excited to bowl!
Silly girl!
The birthday boy.
The neighbors made him a crown...but a little too small for him. LOL!
He would jump up and down every time and yell..."Go, Go, Go" even if it wasn't going to hit the pins. So cute!
Love the tongue!
Hopey and Taylor bowling!
Love the concentration.
Singing! He couldn't wait to eat the cake and play with all the stuff on it!
Hopey's new best friend...Mrs. Quinn.
Cheese!
The professional bowlers!
I love that whenever I have a camera and I call his name...he automatically just smiles until I am done taking pictures! HA HA!
Cyndee and Macy
Isaiah's new work bench from Aunt Kristine and Uncle Scott. He loves it....and shares very nicely with his sister.
So sweet!
