Yo Yo Yo to my peeps! I know I'm a few weeks behind in blogging, I've been in Arizona playing old man games with my sweet grandpa and not sleeping at night! I'm writing this blog because I lost my cell phone and have lost every number in it so....if I have ever called you or might ever call you P-L-E-A-S-E either leave your numbers (home and cell) in a comment or email them to me at mckell_allen@hotmail.com!!! Even if we've been friends for ten years and I should have your number memorized, leave it anyway!
Happy New Year to all and to all a good night!!!

Last Week...
I've been behind in my blogging so this is a catch up post! This week was super busy with parties, playgroups, baking, doctor appointments, hot weather, freezing weather and more baking.
Johnny and I made our first gingerbread house together and he LOVED it. Mr. Creative told me how to do the frosting and then put all the candy on himself.
Tuesday I spent the entire day making bread for neighbors and a billion sugar cookies for my sweet Activity Days girls. We spent the night eating and frosting them all and they only left four cookies at the end...which I ate for breakfast the next morning. Yum.
Last night was the annual G&A party (John's dad's company) at the Westin Galleria. It was another fun night for the family!
While all the Latinos were showing off their AWESOME salsa skills onthe dance floor, us white folk stayed in the corner and entertained ourselves with my camera. Note to self: I want to learn how to salsa dance!
Hope everyone has a FABULOUS Christmas, I will see you in the New Year!

When it's cold outside...
It's been cold out lately and the kiddos are sick and I've run out of ideas to keep them busy but this worked GREAT the other day! She didn't even try to stand up. And yes, I cleaned the sink before I put her in it!

What's Up?
Not much! But I thought I'd do a little update since I'm bored out of my mind and both kids are sleeping.
Johnny boy has a little respiratory infection (probably due to Houston's WACKO weather. Tuesday I was in shorts and flip flops and sweating and yesterday it SNOWED.) and the doctor has him doing mini breathing treatments with this inhaler and he thinks he's the man.
Houston, we have a problem
J still loves to draw and color. On a good day, he goes through at least 25 sheets of paper
And Livy girl turned NINE months old a couple of weeks ago. She is standing up now all by herself and she knows how cool it is! She is always smiling and has us all wrapped around her finger. She weighs 22 pounds, little chunker and I love every single ounce of her! She's reached the destructo mode and loves to get into anything with a handle or door. And she still only has four teeth: bottom two and the upper fangs. She looks like a bat when she opens her mouth, so cute!
I had to take a picture of the "pajamas" daddy put her in yesterday. She had these tights on with a dress during the day and daddy thought she'd be warm enough (mind you, it's snowing outside) wearing a onesie and her stylin tights. I laughed till I cried.
John and I went and explored the George Bush trail on Saturday and found this really cool bridge. I snapped this pic before my camera died

We are thankful for San Antonio!
John's parents took us all to San Antonio for the Thanksgiving weekend. We went to the Hyatt Hill Country Resort and had an amazing time! We ate a lot of incredible food, we played in the pool, in the arcade, at the spa, and at the playground. We went to Sea World for my birthday and it was perfect. The weather was great, there weren't too many people and I really like all the shows. Thank you papa and grams for the best weekend ever!! We love you! And Becca, how did I not get one picture with you in it?

Just like the good ol' days!
Ahhhhh, what a great weekend! Sheree and kids packed up and drove down from Dallas to spend the weekend with us while both of our hubbies were in Utah. It was such a blast! We played, ate some yummy food, took some great naps, played with friends, took tubbies, watched movies, had popcorn parties and had sleep overs every night. Just like the good ol' days! We miss them so much and can't wait for the next visit!
