Snow in Houston

Claire scrapped together all the snow she could find in a three yard radius and this snowman is all that was produced. Ryan's work Christmas party was supposed to be that night, but do to "severe weather conditions" the party was canceled. The schools were also shut down, and most employers let their employees go home early. These Houstonians don't know jack frost about severe weather!

Childrens Festivle

Barney (friendly, big, purple dinosaur) is singin it up in the background. Ryan and I sang along to all the songs (with gusto I might add), Claire sat still and quiet and Jake played with the stadium seats oblivious to all else.

Any outing that results in Jake passing out, is so worth it.

Maybe mommy and daddy cross dressing for Halloween wasn't such a good idea! Hahaha

Halloween Party

Yikes!


Double YIKES! The Udy's Halloween party: lots of people, food and fun. The scariest party of Halloween was how much Ryan enjoyed wearing a dress.

Trunk or Treat

He's our little monkey (if you couldn't tell)


Nanny Nutz sent Claire this costume a few weeks ago, so naturally this was the twentieth time she wore it! Seriously I'm surprised it still looks as good as it does.

Daddy Daughter Date

Ryan surprised us and came home early today so that he could take Claire on a date. They went to see Toy Story in 3D. Hummm, I can't be sure but I think she loved it!

I Turned My Back

When I turn my back, messy things happen! Having Jake in the house makes me think twice about:
Getting a drink of water
Using the restroom
Running out to grab the mail
Having another son
