Yummy Cookies!

Yesterday after dinner Logan and I decided to throw together some chocolate chip cookies. Of course this was at the prompting of Nathan as I think he really just wanted to eat some cookies! I find that it was much easier last time when I had everything pre measured and ready to pour, but Logan was a trooper and was very patient and helpful.

I had them all baked and the last batch came out while he and Daddy were doing bath time. Once he was all pajama-ed up he was able to enjoy some warm cookies and some chilly milk to dunk it in - just like his daddy.

Building with Logan

On New Years Eve Nathan ran to Lowes to pick up a couple things and was suckered into buying Logan a new real tool set. A real (mini) hammer, apron and safety goggles. He also picked up a little Build and Grow set goal post set. They had a great time putting it together - Logan made sure Daddy has his safety glasses too. They did a great job and had a ton of fun together. I'm shocked Nathan didn't run out and buy all the build and grow sets. I can't wait to see what their next project is!

Nathan set everything up and Logan did the hammering. Nathan was smart though and held the nails with needle nose pliers.

HIGH FIVE! Job well done!

Our little lefty - he tried hammering with his right hand at one point, but quickly switched back to his left hand.

"I DID IT!!!" (his catch phrase for almost any of his accomplishments.)

Stud Muffin with the safety glasses!

Trying with the right hand for a bit.

Telling Daddy to look at Momma's camera and smile.

"Touchdown!!" They were celebrating the accomplishment.

The finished project! I think they are both looking forward to the next one as am I. I love watching Logan and Nathan do fun things together.

Happy New Year!

We are still here- just been so dang busy leading up to, through and after the holidays. I usually blog during a break at work, but no luck there! I'll try to get at least one post up this week.

Oh and I'm also going to create a public version of our sit alerting you to updates as my posts don't show up in a blog feed thingy. :)

Christmas Eve

On Christmas Eve, we headed over to my Aunt and Uncle's house for brunch. It was awesome as always. Three of my cousins had never met Abby so it was a real treat. Here is Logan and cousin Dane - Logan is about one month older than him. They had a great time playing together.



Baby girl was enjoying her sweet hat from our friends Jenn and Blain. So cute! She was such a doll in her Christmas Eve attire. She fell asleep with Grandma and took a nice little nap on the chair in the family room.

































Then it was time for some presents and this is how Abby spent her first Deller Christmas. Cuddled up with Daddy - one of her favorite places to be.










An attempt to get a picture of some of the great-grandchildren. Yup - that went well. Abby was NOT a fan and Dane was NOT a fan of her crying. lol We have Dane, Logan, Abby and Tia (Abby and Tia are 10 weeks apart) - almost 2 year old cousin Vaughn was taking a nap.



We headed back home for nap time and then made a quick trip to visit Great-Grandma and Grandpa Johnson. It was a nice quick visit and they were able to meet Abby for the first time. Abby was a sweetheart with Grandma and we do hope Grandma enjoyed meeting her.



We went to church at my in-laws' church. It was a nice evening, but were anxious to get home and be ready for Christmas morning! We made a quick stop to see Great Grandma and Grandpa Wolfe then headed home to sprinkle reindeer food and head to bed! Santa was coming!!

An old post - Abby was 6 weeks old

I uploaded these pictures quite a while ago, but never typed anything with them. I'll post them anyway. Abby is about 6 weeks old in these photos. I was so happy she was actually laying on her back for a period of time - hence the first picture. Sister has had one heck of a run with colic. It is/was so hard. I will say in the past few weeks have been much better, but she still has her rough patches. Thankful that they are patches and not entire DAYS like it was for so many weeks. The question is still does she have reflux? She is on meds for it, but we'll see. She has her 4 month appt in early Feb so they will re-evaluate her need for them.




The second photo is my fantastic OB/GYN, Dr. Walsh with Abby at my 6 week appointment. It was so great to see her and she was quite literally the best doctor a girl could ask for. Every time she talks, I am instantly calm. Be it the induction of Logan, the breech of Abby, the need for a c-section, etc etc. She is amazing. So thankful for her!

Cookies and Reindeer Food Fun

On December 10th (wow - SO BEHIND) we had a play date with Logan's long time "girlfriend" Izzy. Her older brother Malcolm came too (although Logan kept calling him Michael.) Along with his their mother, Kari. Kari did not come empty handed. She was in charge of cookies and frosting. 8 DOZEN cookies later - 7 dozen of those done by Kari and I - we had a TON of decorated cookies! ha!

The second activity was reindeer food. Because we of course know that reindeer need to eat on Christmas Eve as well, right? I was really looking forward to it. Logan really thought it was great fun on Christmas Eve to sprinkle it in the driveway. I think next year I'll let him put together a bigger jar to spread out and maybe a little jar for Abby as I'm sure she will be toddling after big brother by that point. :) Here are some pictures from our fun morning.
