The Maille Family
Well we are a huge family of 5! If you had told me years ago that I'd be a mom of 3 I would have fainted. Now, here we are with 3 beautiful kids. So Mike and I are trying to document what we can online and in their baby books.

Our Adventures!

HAPPY NEW YEAR!

Wow, it's 2008!

That went by fast. Christmas was a quiet one. It didn't feel like we got much of a vacation since Mike and I had to go back to work pretty much the day after. We all got nice things and Mike and I went to see the Spurs/Pistons game on Jan. 10th! It was amazing and we had amazing seats!

Little Philip fell off of the bed and fractured his collar bone! We had to take him into the ER and he was such a good boy about it. He even smiled for the X-ray machine after we told him they were going to take a "picture" of his bones. It was so cute. He's in a Peanuts sling now that he's good about wearing.

Little Natalie turned ONE on Jan. 5th! I can't believe it's been a year. That went by so fast and we can't imagine not having her in our lives now. She's the princess and she got 4 more teeth so that makes 8 total. She's quite the eater and we never have problems with her. In fact, if she sees us eating and we don't give her any, she starts to whine until we share. She's GROWING! About a week after her birthday she attempted to walk. She now can take about 8 steps before she loses her nerve and sits down and crawls the rest of the way. She no longer does that stomach army crawl but now does the on all fours crawl. We'll work on getting her to be more mobile.

We have lots of photos from Christmas. Philip got a little computer, a kids camera, some DVDs and some trucks and bath toys. Natalie got her walker, some clothes and some learning toys. Philip got his big double truck from Grandpa which he loves. That's what he calls that monster truck that he can ride and drive in the front yard. He's actually becomming a good driver but it's scary for him at times when it seems to go fast. We always disconnect the battery just so he won't go joy riding while we aren't around. Natalie got a push little car she can sit in and we push so it's cute when the both of them are in their cars and we push them around. When it gets warmer we'll go outside more often.

Mike and I are working a lot and I'm doing some side work doing tax preparation. It's tax time! I already filed my taxes of course. A bit late for me don't you think. ;) Don't be scared everyone, just do it!

We got new laptops, both of us so we've been online in bed. Our computers have none of our photos on them so I haven't made a new page for our website yet with December/ January photos. I will soon though.
