Multiple Nelsons

  This is what I saw coming back from the mailbox. :) It is only 25 degrees outside and I asked her if she was warm....... her response was, "Of course mom".    

  We went downtown a week or so ago with the Nelson "Clan". Missa and Lili got bears from Build-A-Bear and loved it. Lili is potty trained too and this was her special treat!!!! As you can see I don't get many pictures b/c my hands are so full with two other kids. But this time there was plenty of help so we could snap a few.   Sunday morning before church. I wish I could have gotten a family picture but Jare Bear was sleeping and Troy was finishing up getting stuff ready. I also realized I haven't snapped very many pictures with this pregnancy. I am 28 weeks/7 months along.

  I bet you are wondering how I got my kids to be still for a picture....... Mickey Mouse Clubhouse on the Computer Missa and Jacolina absolutely LOVE Mickey Mouse Clubhouse Jare Bear on the other hand LOVES ------------- The computer and the computer only SIDE NOTE: the twins climbed up on stools. They love to climb on anything to get to anything.  

  Troy wanted to try out this new Crockpot Apple Oatmeal. Missa helped him and had a blast. The recipe is actually really good. I will put it on the "What's for Dinner" blog.   Missa's new "Cramera". :) This "cramera" is Troy' old camera from before his mission to Argentina. That makes it at least 10 years old.  

  So I meant to take pictures of both of the girls in their new dresses Santa gave them but I forgot. So here is the dress on Missa. Miss Jacolina in her favorite spot... reading books in the rocking chair.  

I know that Thanksgiving has past... but I really need to express some gratitude to our Ward (Church) Family. Since Troy and I don't have family too close we were a little worried when we first moved to where we are now, how we would go to the temple, go on dates, (me) run errands during the day, helping clean and etc... But we really have been blessed. I just wanted to publicly say, "Thank you" to all that have helped us since Troy has started back to school. 1. Going to the temple ONCE a month . The Williams girls volunteered (their mom helps) to babysit our kids for free! 2. Running errands (doc appts, going to the store and etc). Annmarie B and I trade once a week so that we each can get out. There also have been many other families too that have helped us... Ryans, Cottles, Keysers, Furniss, Monsens and many more 3. Going on a date and cleaning . The Strate girls volunteered (their mom helps) to babysit our kids for free once a month and clean once a month!...

  Grandpa Dan was really nice and took Missa outside in the snow!!! He pulled her around on the sled and helped her build a snowman. :) G&G Nelson came down for the day and helped us rearrange our living room and kids room. More pictures later.
