Christmas at the Hamms

Roxy got the thing she wanted most, a doll.  Here she is changing her.

It was a generous Christmas in the Hamm House

Couple of days ago but still so cute

Roxy got this awesome doll, but was kind of scared of her.  You can stick your arms in her arms and shes a puppet.  Totally cool to me, but a little scary to Roxanne

Yeah, he scored a basket

My little man was really tired

SO for the Hamm House we celebrated Christmas a little bit late.  Richs mom flew out on Friday so we made Christmas on Saturday for us.  It was totally worth the wait to have more family here.  We had a blast opening presents for hours.  There were probably a few too many presents this year, but what are you going to do.  Roxy and Roscoe got everything that they could have asked for and then a little extra, thank you to everyone who shipped presents out here.  

Day 4, 5, and 6

Well she has been doing really well. But the problem now is the Holidays.  Whenever we leave to go somewhere we put a diaper on her.  As long as we are home she is in panties and stays dries, but when we leave we put the diaper on.  We should be staying home the next few days so lets hope she keeps up the good work.

Day 3

Well by the time I got home from the gym this morning Roxy and peed in her panties twice and Rich was pretty irritated.  BUT the next time I took her, she peed in the potty!!!!!!!!  She yelled, "I did it!!"  I am so proud of her, but if only she can do it again.  Ill keep you posted.

Day 2

Just as sucky as yesterday.  She peed one the floor three times, once on my side of the bed.  She ran out of all her panties and we had to put her in a diaper.

Potty Training

So we have started the potty training process with Roxy. I am pretty much off for the next two weeks and I am sick of changing diapers.  I am determined to potty train her this break.  Today was not very good.  I let her wear panties, which she loves, and took her to the potty every thirty minutes.  She did not go in the potty once, and wet two pairs of panties.  Lets hope tomorrow is better.

WOW

It is still snowing

snow snow snow snow snow

We went out to dinner tonight and we came home to this.  Luckily we had just stopped and bought some fire logs, because who would have thought we would have snow here in Texas.  Roxy has so much fun and wanted to stay outside.  We let her go out side and have some fun but we also did not want her to get sick.  

This is the car we did not take.

Here is our jungle gym after about an hour and half.

Roxy loved playing in the snow

We had so much fun.

My little santa

Roxy got this Santa outfit last year, but this year it fits her perfectly.  She loves to wear all around and tells everyone "I Santa, I Santa."

  

Who knew that Santa wrestled little babies

Santa is checking his list, via email.  Looks like Roxy and brother are on there

Santa is all tired from making so many toys.

Sisterly Love

Black Friday

Now some people have told me that I am a crazy woman for shopping on Black Friday.  These people have obviously never felt the thrill of getting the last toy at 80% off, or getting up at 2:30 to get in line by three and when the stores opens at five seeing at least 150 people who will not be getting in that store before you.  For me Black Friday is a competitive event.   I love winning.  I love beating other people.  This year I was trying to get an Elmo farm set from Target and I had the worker go in back to get more.  By the time that the lady came back out there were 9 woman waiting for these elmo sets.  She brought out 3.  Needless to say I got one.  It is also great knowing that I will be able to do all my shopping in one day and KNOW that I am getting the best possible price.  

Oh, yeah I also like buying things for my babies!!!

This was my best year ever.  I went to ToysRus first and was out of there by 5:15.  I got everything there that I wanted to get, and a little more.  From there I stood in line at Target (who opened at 6) and got in there and got all that I wanted except for one thing (which I found one of the next day).  From there I went to Old Navy, and then Wal-mart.  I am proud to say that I am done with my shopping and I was home by 7:30!!! 

Christmas is officially HERE

How cute are the kids and their picture of Santa

Poor Baby Roscoe

So roscoe has been acting a little bit sick the past week or so and today he had his 9 month check up.  (23 lbs 9oz if you are interested) and come to find out the kid has an ear infection.  We had no idea.  So he was so pitiful today.  We have pillows on the couch which wind up on the floor and whenever Roscoe would come across one we would lay he big ol head on it.  It was sad.  He was pretty miserable. But after only two doses of antibiotics he was 90x better and jumping on his bed again and ready to run (crawl) away from mommy.  Gotta love modern medicine.

Twilight

So for those of you who went and saw it at midnight I salute you.  I did wait until Friday at 10:00.  But We were fourth in line and the best seats in the theater.  I went with my friends and two of us wore Twilight shirts.  Nerds I know, but we were so adorable.  The crowd was pretty big, it went out the door and down the steps of the Cinemark.  It was funny whenever a group came out of the movie they were cheering.

I really liked the movie but there were a few things that I don't think came across well in the movie.  Like Carlisle and and when Edward was in the sunlight.

all in all though it was so fun to go with friends and and see a great movie.  Oh, yes my shirt does say "team jacob, Cause life is better half-naked"  and I think that most of you would agree with me on that.

Girls Night

This is one of those girls nights I am always talking about.  I have the best ward ever and ever few weeks, the girls like to go and have a good time.  Next week TWILIGHT!!

Anissa Missed us!

Maybe inapropriate, but totally adorable

So my friend Katie G has two kids that just about equal distance apart as Roxy and Roscoe but hers are 7 months older.  her oldest is a girl and her youngest is a boy, just like Roxy and Roscoe. Before Roscoe was born I, being the good mother that I am, was looking for things to be worried about.  So I was worried about whether Roxy and Roscoe were going to like each other and whether they would play together.  Katie told me that as soon as Mason, her youngest could start moving and doing things that they started playing together.  Well Katie was not a liar,  my precious babies are friends and they actually play together!!!!  Today I was able to answer my emails, check my items on eBay and check the bank account a the while, Roxy and Roscoe were just playing on the floor and just cracking up laughing.  So to the inappropriate part.  after their bath they were playing together and I got some of the cutest pics of them, but they are of course naked.  So I hope that no one is offended by my babies bare bums.

Cutie pics

yes Roscoe is eating ribs

Bowling for brothers

Some How dressing up like a pirate turned into Roxy looking like Aunt Jemima

See Melissa, people like peas
