Christmas at the Bowerings

Image
We had a fantastic Christmas this year, I will have to post more pics later of our Christmas eve, but these will have to do to start. Christmas eve pics are stored on g-ma and g-pa's camera. We have had a wonderful 2009, we are incredibly blessed and wish you all a very happy 2010. This was our Christmas card photo this year, along with 3 pics of the boys!!! We tried our best to get all to look but I was satisfied with this photo. Hudson and Oliver, love to help in the kitchen, this particular day they were in their "terrible two's stage" so I let them stir bubbles while I cooked supper and they were content and didn't want to leave at all. We are starting to potty train in our house, and I have to admit that potty training 2 kids at the same time isn't the easiest task, I am taking it one day at a time and both Hudson and Oliver are very much interested in it, so wish me luck and send a few prayers my way :) We got an incredible deal on a bouncer for the ki

Gingerbread House

Here is our first attempt at making my first ever gingerbread house, cousin Jay came over to help, we had a great night and had lots of fun :) Jackson couldn't resist all the candies, he had so much fun putting them on the house, he wanted to use every last one of them, and sample a few along the way. I really like how much Jackson enjoyed this activity and I think this will become a yearly event in our house. No Hudson or Oliver in this activity I think they would of gone bonkers if they would of seen all this candy!! Jackson keeps saying he wants to eat this on Christmas eve, we'll have to see about that!!!

Jackson is 4

Well I can hardly believe that 4 years ago, Jackson was born. He is such a big boy now and I just cannot get over how fast time has gone!!!! Here are some pics from his party and his monster truck cake Mom keeps saying we have to read the cards first, I'm trying my best to be patient but I just want to rip open my gifts!! Jackson had so much fun at his party, thank to all who came and for all the great gifts you gave Jackson!!! Jackson wanted a monster truck cake, here is my attempt at it. He wanted it to be green and purple. When he saw it, he clapped his hands and kept telling me how much he loved it. Later on the in the day he said, mom it could of been bigger, aren't monster trucks suppose to be big? Good thing I got a good night sleep and didn't remind him that I was up late late late trying to carve the cake and ice and make it look as real as possible!!! The wheels are actually doughnuts, I like the dirt bottom!! I think my favourite part is the lights on the top

Happy Halloween

Hi Everyone, well I am taking advantage of the time change, we have been up since 6am (I know most of you will say, well really thats 7am) but 6am is 6am. The boys do not care about the time change. So as they are watching Mickey Mouse Clubhouse, I am updating the blog, finally!!!! Life again has been very busy for us and I don't think it is slowing down any time soon. Hudson and Oliver are now in there big boy beds - they look so little in those big beds. They are doing well with the transition and we still have more accessories to add to their room but after many hours of painting, the mural is finished!!!! I think it turned out awesome and am so glad we did it. Halloween is also finished and the kids got 4 huge bowls filled with candy, it was crazy - I never remembered getting this much candy as a kid!!!! They are set for a long time. John's b-day is coming up so we will go out most likely to a pizza place on his actual b-day and then we will have a family party later on. So
