Christmas!!!

Oh what a joy trying to get both the kids to pose for a picture... if you have any children you know exactly what I am talking about! Here they are.... Merry Christmas from The Dickinsons

Pumpkin

Here are the pumpkins Katie and Trev carved for the Kids this year. Much better than myself...

More Pictures!

So Aunt Katie came down to take some more pictures for us I LOVE these pictures..

...

We have been busy... and now its time to do a quick update.. Makynlee is doing the army crawl all over the place seems to be right in the way of Finleys toys. Finley is my typical little boy. ALL BOY!


She looks so big in her car seat and so heavy...

:)

Now that he figured out the concept of peddling he loves his tricycle

Cowboy Finley

Here is some pictures that Katie took again... I absolutely love them! This shows Finleys' true colors

Makynlee Rose

Finley and Jack at the Zoo!

My sister in law Katie Dickinson started doing some photography and how convenient is it to have her take pictures all the time because she loves it. Check out her blog at http://www.ktdick.blogspot.com

SO far behind

So they always say that 2 kids is much crazier than 1. I honestly thought that it can't be that bad... WRONG! It is complete chaos at times, so I am definitely not thinking about having 5 kids anymore...
Finley is doing great he is being a VERY independent little guy and thinks that maybe every now and then he should tend to Makynlee... Well those are his plans, but the mean mom I am puts an abrupt stop to it hopefully before it happens. He is pretty much potty trained and talks so much that it you never can guess what he is going to say, he can outsmart anyone any given time... he is the mischevious one you have to keep your eye on.

Makynlee is a big 3 months old today and is growing ever so quickly. Many people think that she looks like me, except for the prettiest blue eyes for a little girl!

Makynlee is sleeping through the night from about 9-6 which feels amazing to wake up in the morning with that much sleep.

Of course, Finley looks like Trev and Makynlee looks like me *just how we planned it*

Here are some pictures of the crazy life that we live and there are many of the both of them because every time Finley holds her he says "mommy get camera, hurry" You gotta love his sweet little language!

Makynlee

Here are some pictures of Makynlee .... Hopefully I will be a little better at getting some pictures on here than I have been the past 2 weeks!

Its a girl!

Welcome Makynlee Rose Dickinson! She came on 3/15/1o @ 8:05 a.m. and was smaller than the dr guessed. She was 7 lbs and 12 oz and 20 1/4 inches long. I dont see that her and Finley look a like- she has brown hair, toes that aren't webbed, a petite cry- wow how girls are so different than boys! I will get some pictures soon and post them so you can see the new addition to the Dickinsons.

Long time

Sorry it has been such a long time since our last update, but I dont really have enough ambition to blog at night after I get home from work. Everyone is doing great! Finley has changed so much added many words to his vocabulary and is growing at such a rapid rate ( They say that is what kids do)! Finley is also working very diligently on being potty trained, he loves to sit on the toilet and go potty. Now telling us is a different story we have to ask or else ... you know the rest.

Our 2nd baby is due on March 15th, but according to the dr he would not be surprised if the baby came earlier because of its size! At 32 weeks they did an ultrasound to measure the size of the baby and it is apparently going to be a very big kid. It was supposed to be measuring about 3 lbs at 32 weeks and the dr said we are looking at 4 lbs and 5 ozs at that point. We did not find out what we are having, but this pregnancy is very different from my first, so who knows what it will be :) Names are a touchy situation because we really dont know what we like until we see the baby. Some of the names in the running for boys are Hudson, Sawyer and Maclain and the girls are changing constantly - Presley, Raegan and Addison.
