January Ice Storm

Yesterday we started getting hit with ice storm, by lunch time this is what our trees looked like in the back yard looking down from the second story. Also we had gone in the back yard to look at some things, and not thinking that everything was icy I walked right down the sidewalk and slipped and fell on my butt. Dallin saw me and started crying because I fell. I didn't get hurt, but now I am careful where I step.

By night time we had the ice and snow on the front walkway.

This is what I found this morning after Tarek left for work.

I took this picture of Keely last night because Dallin used to have the same little pouty lip too. I couldn't resist taking the picture.

A Day at the Park

Today we decided to take Dallin to the park since the weather wasn't to cold. He had fun sitting in the tree to pose for some pictures. He also wanted to take his bubbles along and blow bubbles. Keely was relaxed in her bunny suit and front carrier that she fell asleep after being there a few minutes.

Do we have another Dallin?

When I saw Keely holding onto her blanket I had to take a picture. This is the way Dallin was with his blanket and pacifier. Dallin still loves to have his blankets. I wanted to add some more pictures of the kids, I finally got to transfer some more pictures to the computer. I had taken a few black and whites of Keely and thought that they turned out cute. Dallin loves to play Mario Kart on the Wii so I had to take a picture of him playing. He likes for me to take his picture now.

Here it is!!

Well I have finally made a blog. We will be using this instead of our other website. So you can check this blog out for updated pictures and stories of our Life here in little Abilene. So far we are trying to adjust to having 2 kids at home. It's alot of work. But well worth it. The kids are doing great. Dallin is very protective of his new baby sister, always asking where she is. Keely is growing and doing very well. No more problems from the hospital. Thank goodness. She has learned to smile at you, of course when she wants too. She also will follow you if you move around her. She knows its eating time when you put a burp cloth under her chin. Dallin is very energetic and keeps us on our toes. He has learned to use his kids scissors and loves to practice. He still loves to paint and color. And thankfully he loves to go to Nursery at church. Dallin will be turning 3 next week and we are having a birthday party for him on the 30th. I will be posting pictures of that as well. Here are a few pictures of the kids to get this blog started.
