Things are really changing in our family. Danny and I bought this crib 12 years ago before Taylor as born. We researched cribs and shopped around to find a good deal and a sturdy well built crib that would last for a long time.
This cute crib has served our family well for the past 12 years, and it's had constant use. Taylor slept in it until he was almost 3 when Emily was born. Then he moved into a toddler bed and she moved right into this crib. That same pattern happened with Isaac and Elizabeth as well.
Lizzie has been sleeping in this crib ( even though she is a giant 3 1/2 year old girl) until this week. She never climbed out of it an seemed really happy still sleeping in a crib. And because she is that baby of our family no one else needed the crib and so she stayed. We sold the crib this week and moved Lizzie into a toddler bed. She was thrilled and transitioned great. I was sad and teary about getting rid of our special crib. I have so many wonderful memories of cute, chubby, smily babies learning to sit, stand and finally climb (or jump like Taylor did ) in this crib. It has served our family well. It feels odd to get rid of our baby stuff and it makes me sad. 
I guess I'm an old mom now. It's a transition that will take getting used to.





Isaac had really been into making cards and crafts for us lately. He goes and gets all the craft supplies and then cuts, writes, draws and clues. It's super cute and he's always really proud of what he's made. We love it!!!





My smily little girl!

It was crazy hair day this week. Here's what we came up with. Lot of ponytails.

Blue hair for Isaac.

Taylor borrowed this wig from a friend, it was perfect for him.

Here's the whole group of kids walking to school with crazy hair.

Lizzie liked the wig too!

Cute little Hannah came to play one day.

We went to the Aquarium on Saturday. It was a really cold day and we had fun inside the warm, humid aquarium.

Winter is really here.
It's been cold and snowy.
