2009 . . . You're joking me!

This morning I told Brynlee: "Happy New Year". She asked me, what does that mean? I informed her that 2008 has gone, and now we begin a new year, 2009. All she had to say about that was: "You're joking me."

Happy New Year!!!

Posh Family Christmas

We had a wonderful Christmas! We spent Christmas at our home, and it was a joy to see the kids excitement Christmas morning. We were able to go to B'ville the weekend before and spend sometime with my side of the family. And Josh's mother and husband, and one of his sisters came the day after Christmas. Here are a few pics of the Posh Family Christmas.

Santa Fun!

We took the kids to see Santa today! Brynlee loved it as always. Will was not so brave. He had a little crying spell, but we managed to get a photo. I assured him he was still on the good list despite his uncertainty of the jolly man!

It's beginning to look a lot like Christmas....

Today it felt like Christmas time. The wind chill was in the teens, and the temperature dropped to the 20's (Burrrr). We had a little snow and I mean a little. Brynlee wanted to go outside and make snow angels. Of course the touch of snow on the grass was hardly visible, but we went outside for about 5 min (it was too cold). We hope we will get some snow again soon, so we can make Frosty and some snow angels!

William was not sure about the COLD!

Just to let everyone see there was snow (the white below the trees).

All Boy . . . & some Cute Pics

Well, raising a little boy is fun and challenging! After having Miss Brynlee the "angel child", William brings many surprises to each day.

Last year William payed no attention to the Christmas tree (being only 2 months), this year it has him infatuated. Many of our ornaments now have some teeth marks in them, and the ribbons on the tree take on a new look everyday.

He also has a strong desire to continue to get into the chewing gum drawer (the gum is going to have to find a new location). Many of the gum packages have teeth marks on the ends of them. Josh came home the other day and asked me if I was so eager to get a piece of gum that I had to start chewing on the package (ha ha).

Brynlee being the great big sister came running to me this morning crying "William has something small in his mouth". I found him in the kitchen with a chicken bouillon cube in his mouth (who knows how he managed to find that).

He also loves being in his sister's room. He will play with her doll house, her kitchen, her barbies (daddy loves that). His favorite is her Ariel necklace that sings.

This little boy makes me laugh (and want to pull my hair out) everyday!! Despite his strong will, I must say "Thank God for little boys"!!!

I often find him standing in his rocking chair. He heard me coming here and started to sit.

Here he is playing with sister's doll house.

Singing to Ariel with sister. (Brynlee likes to put on her Little Mermaid swimsuit, tiara, and necklace.) William can keep a beat pretty well and sing on key! (Don't let him fool you; he is all boy!)This use to be Josh's horse when he was little. We do not have much room in our house, and this horse stays in the kitchen until William pushes it into the living room and gets on it saying "Ma Ma, ide orseee".
