As of right now, we only have one car. Because of this, it's just William, Lily, and me at home everyday. All day long. We have the occasional visitor. Okay, so Carrie isn't exactly occasional. - I all but beg her to come over some days. And I will be eternally grateful to her for keeping me sane.- But, you get the picture. It can be pretty boring for a 2 1/2 year old and a 1 1/2 year old to be stuck at home all day. Oh, and not to mention the boredom a 22 1/2 year old can experience. I am a natural home body, but seriously... a mom can only take so much. My house is pretty much spotless when I'm at home alone with my kids.
Anyway, the purpose of this post is to express the high points of being at home all day with the cutest little ones. I'm very thankful for the fact that they have gotten closer as a brother and sister. They have been learning to play together and share. Lily looks up to her big brother like Will can do no wrong. Everything that he does, you will find her trying to play along. William can be a little possessive of things -like anything that has to do with Thomas the Train- but he is also very good with Lily. He takes care of her. Don't get me wrong, they are getting close, but they still act like brother and sister the majority of the time -screaming included. All in all though, it's fun to see their relationship expanding. It's pretty cool to think that they can't remember life without each other.
They thought they were so cool sitting on the table like that. They both climbed up the chairs and sat on the table singing songs and laughing together. (That doesn't happen very often)
This is the box that had all of our Christmas goodies in it from Tennessee. They loved playing in it together. I'm sure Will is pretending to talk to pa pa on the phone.

So cute. I can't wait to give Taylor and maddie a bath together. It'll be fun. And will is so cute. I heard him on the phone tonight over at your mom's and dad's. Our kids are getting big :(
They are so fun, Candace! I just love 'em both! Remember how that box USED to be cool?
You are a great mom! I am so amazed at your ability to be patient and enjoy these moments with 2 little ones! I hope I can still be sane when we have 2! You are great!
So cute! Enjoy them while they are little. In fact, enjoy the whole ride. One day you will wake up and be talking to them about and getting them ready for college. I love how close they are. That bond will only grow stronger as they get older. We love you all and miss you! Merry Christmas!
Hey Matt,
Sure would've like to hang out with you guys on Christmas Eve and what not, too bad you went and moved to Utah and messed up that whole Christmas rotation. Oh well, maybe John will be my best friend now.
Signed, Eric the Dunn
Your kids are growing up. We sure miss yall.
