charly and deven hit Htown.

justin and i were extremely happy to have charly and deven spend the holidays with us in houston. we spent a lot of time playing games, watching movies and eating good food. we had an eleven foot tree to decorate and the kids did an outstanding job.

christmas morning was so special for justin. christmas becomes very different when you're the adult...but just as fun. loved seeing the kids faces light up when they opened their gifts.

and we played a bit of softball...

jordan kids have arrived.

yesterday we picked up charly and deven from the airport. so great to have them here for christmas. they seem to love the new house and we already got our wii on last night. sit tight, more to come on our adventures.

the dryers not the only thing eating our socks.

with 2 lab puppies, we fully expect some chewing and eating of things around the house. however, we were not prepared for the intense fixation that lucy has for socks and slippers. i'm not even sure where she gets them.

anyway, our little sock lover has recently pooped out 2 entire socks. not one, but 2. the other day i caught a sock in her mouth right before it went down. we're extra careful now about where we put our socks....

julianne marie.

the wise family was blessed with miss julianne marie on november 30, 2011. i'm thrilled to have another niece. she's so beautiful and can't wait to meet her in a week.

mama and baby are doing great. avery and tyler love their little sister so much they want to be around her all the time, especially when she's sleeping and mom doesn't want them to wake her ;) i think ty will be a protective older brother for sure.
