A quick catch up

I am so sorry that I haven't had a new post in about a month. Just like everyone during the holidays, we too, were very busy. Here is a quick overview of the past few weeks.
Ari's birthday was the 17th of December. We bought a cake and Ari opened a couple presents. One of the happiest moments of my life happened this day.I would actually consider this the fourth happiest day of my life just under my wedding and the birth of the two girls... Ari pooped in the toilet. This means to me that there is an end in sight for changing her diapers. Who knew that I would be so happy, I just have an extreme dislike for changing diapers.
We spent Christmas and New Years at the cabin. As usual we had a wonderful time. There was plenty of snow for sledding and snow machining. We even drove to Big Sky a couple times to go snowboarding and skiing. Good times!

Ari made herself very comfortable while I drug her up the hill.



Grandma Benson got the girls little tike Coop cars for Christmas. They loved them. They just had a hard time waiting for Nate to put them together.
At the cabin there is the ugliest, scariest pig that sits by the fireplace. I don't know why it is there, no body likes it. Anyways, we finally found something that it is good for.


Every year Nate like to grow facial hair. He has grown a mustache a goatee (I dont know how to spell that), handle bar mustache and know a full beard. He pulls it of with ease.

Dad and I are playing Red Rover with Ari and her rat.
We were so happy that Grandma Benson came up to the cabin. Ari was her little shadow.

That was a great set of a lot of pictures. I surely enjoyed it. I love that you always dress the girls alike, way cute. And congrats on the toilet going. That is pretty exciting.

Nate, I was wondering if Ari is going to be potty trained before you?

goatee. Thats correct you spelled it right. You could ask Trevor for a double check but I am sure that is how it is spelled.

You need to enter that picture of Ari lying down in the sled in some contest. It's such a good shot.
