We had a wonderful Thanksgiving. The turkey looked beautiful. I made name cards for everyone and Davis kept trying to put on an extra googli eye because turkey's have two eyes. Smart kid. Emma had a great time eating potatoes and gravy. She was cheesing it for the camera. With all of the birthdays and Thanksgiving this week, we have gained 25 lbs. collectively.

My birthday was on Wednesday, I am 27. Davis wanted to take a picture of me. He is a great photographer, "make a angry face, stick out your tongue." I posted the normal picture instead of the ones he coached me on.

Adelaide's Birthday was Tuesday. She is three and knows what she wants. She has wanted to go to Chili's for her birthday for months. Everytime we would drive by it she would say "Chili's for my birthday." We went to Chili's for her birthday and she was in heaven. Her face lit up when we sang "Happy Birthday" to her. She had her family and her ballerina cake and we were at Chili's(everything she had dreamed of) she was laughing when we sang her name. She had a fun day and really enjoyed all of the attention. We love our "BumbleBee."

Brandon's Birthday was on Sunday. He is 31. He found out on Sunday that his pig was pregnant and ready to deliver at any time. He spent the entire afternoon and night finishing his barn for her. She had 7 live piglets. Happy Birthday Honey!!! Sorry you didn't get to celebrate with us.

Mom and Dad's boy

This is Davis. He is not lacking in personality. He loves people and is a very caring boy. He bugs Emma and she loves it. He is obnoxious to us and she just laughs and smiles when he is screeching as loud as he can right in her face.

Adelaide Bee

This is our wild girl. She is very girly but can play transformers with the best of them. When she was born we decided not to give her a middle name. Davis Mark Nelson is our oldest and she kept telling us that her name was Adelaide "Mark" Nelson. We figured at that point we should think about giving her a middle name and Mark wasn't our first choice. Her great grandma's middle name is Bee and we liked the sound of that and it fits her.

Our Pumpkin

This is our latest addition. Emma Claire was born on June 5th of this year. She is almost 6 months old and is a super sweet baby. The kids love her. She is close to rolling over. She has started trying to talk and she discovered her tongue. We are having a fun time with our kids and seeing our family grow. We love being parents and are blessed by our children daily. We are also blessed with patience but it runs out around lunchtime.

Cute kids

Here is a recent picture of the kids in the new kitchen. Davis keeps telling everyone he meets that he is 4. He is proud. Adelaide will turn 3 on the 25th. She wants a ballerina cake. I am going to attempt to make one. If it turns out I will post pics. We painted her room over the weekend. She picked pink and purple. It sounds scary but it turned out.

Oh no

We are going to post pictures that are three years old. We have to play catch up since we are just now getting online. This is our first picture to put on our blog. Brandon and I love this picture. I was going to take a picture of them looking at me and just as I pressed the button a pan fell off of the counter and startled them. Davis was one and a half and Adelaide was 6 months.
