20 months

Colin is now 20 months old....the same age Lindsie was when he was born.  This is so crazy to me!  I can't believe she was such a baby and yet I needed her to act and be such a BIG girl!  Many times I feel so bad for forcing her to grow up so quickly during that time.  Yet, it was necessary for my survival and sanity with 2 babies to take care of!!  I am grateful to have experienced that time in my life and the lives of my kids, but hope none of them will need therapy for it in the future. :)
At his 18 month check up Colin was 32.5" tall (54%), and weighed 24 pounds (23%).  He is such a BOY! He loves balls, trucks and cars, and all the noises that go with them.  It is amazing how he just "knew"to love these things despite all the princess, barbie, and girly things that were around him.  :)  Colin is growing up so quickly, yet will always be my baby.  He can say quite a few words and loves to make lots of sounds and noises.  He loves dancing with the girls, especially to "The Time" by The Black Eyed Peas.  It is hilarious and darling too!

Crazy BOY!!!

"Bubble"

Colin's new favorite word.  "Bubble"  And this is why...

Yes, that's his "cheese".  Such a happy kid. :)

Lindsie is always the instigator of having a bath in the jetted tub.  She and Colin both have so much fun, and I love to watch them play together.  Just wish it was less of a mess when they were done. :)

The Fever...

Took this video of the girls tonight on the new Flip cam we got for Christmas from my parents.
This was take 7...so very funny!  Hope you enjoy...

Catch up

I am at a loss for what to write...it has been such a long time since my last post.!?  So...maybe a few photos and quick thoughts to finish out our 2010...

Wedding in Redondo Beach, CA for our friends Josh and Lisa

(it was fun to have a reason to get dressed up and be out...without the kids)

 Lindsie turned 3 and thinks she is "so big".

She loves barbies, dressing up, dancing, and lipstick!

She is a very active, crazy, yet loving kid. :)

Thanksgiving with the ENTIRE Fry family!!

Grandparents + 6 children + 6 spouses + 14 grandkids = Crazy FUN!

and we documented the occasion with a family photo...

The week before Christmas we took a trip with the kids to Arizona to stay with Grandma and Pops.  They loved swimming in the hot tub, roasting marshmallows, decorating cookies, playing at the park, riding the train and carousel, and a short horse and carriage ride (after a very LONG wait in line).  It was nice to enjoy some activities in the sun and warmer weather right before Christmas.  Thanks G&P!!  xoxo

  

 

Christmas Eve...

Nana and Papa never disappoint...everyone was thrilled with their gifts!!

We had a very enjoyable Christmas Day at home as a family. We played, ate lots of food, watched movies and visited with family and friends. (Chris was thrilled to have perfected his annual prime rib too! :) Wish I had taken a picture!)

2010 was a great year for our family! 

I will treasure the many memories created this year...

and look forward to someday having the time to scrapbook them for my kids. :)
