Guess what???

Max and Kate are getting a baby brother this Summer!!!!!

Look how sweet these little baby feet are.

A little sunshine for my soul

My Amaryllis bloomed yesterday and I really needed something pretty to look at because this weather stinks. I can't wait for spring....

CHRISTMAS 2009!!!

The Sutch's had a very Merry Christmas. It started at 4:30 AM, all my bragging that we have always had to wake up Max came back to haunt me. Max came in our room and said it is Christmas! We were mean and made him wait until 6:30. I never thought my 6 year old would think watching cartoons was torture, it was for all of us except Kate that was still sleeping soundly. They both got everything and more that they asked for and had a lot of fun. Max was all business opening his gifts and sorry "Bertha" is half naked in his undies in all the pics. Kate was very animated and so excited with every gift she opened

Max got a new bike, 2 new video games, Halo Lego's, Galactic Star Wars hero's and Spaceship, Walkie talkies, and a Halo encyclopedia

Kate got a new Barbie house( it was mine as a little girl and Jake gave it a remodel), Princess barbies, Polly Pocket Olphin(dolphin), Princess vanity, and Princess and the frog play set!

We really are hot! We had a very low key day but maybe we could have combed our hair first.

And the perfect ending to a wonderful day...the Christmas night Melt down!

Christmas Eve 2009

Starting our night, headed to dinner

Opening our gifts from the elves!

New blanket's, Pj's and slippers!

Getting ready for bed


On Christmas Eve our tradition is to go to an early dinner and then catch a movie. This year Grandma and Grandpa Montgomery joined us. We ate at Texas Roadhouse and then we saw Princess and the Frog. It was very cute show and we all enjoyed it even Papa Ned. We were home early and in bed by 9:00. Max has been so fun this year, we have a count down calender that the elves bring something everyday in December until Christmas and he has been serious about how many days until Christmas. They both went to sleep quick and Santa's little helpers were in bed by 10:30, we were very prepared this year everything wrapped and put together.

HAPPY 7th BIRTHDAY MAX!

7 years ago today, this sweet boy gave me the best gift ever... he made me a Mommy! I can't imagine our world without him. I get kind of sad thinking about how fast he is growing up, but I am so proud of everything he is learning and the adventure's he is having. I love that he is all boy, but has the most caring, tender heart. Happy Birthday Max, I hope you have the best day!

CrASh

Today Jake was heading home to get Max from school and was rear ended on Geneva Rd. It was one of those when your watching in your rear view mirror thinking OMG please stop, please stop..... well that lovely girl did not. The spare tire mounted on the back took most of it but the door is munched because of it so that is where most of the damage is and the bumper is bent. I guess when we take it in to be est for repair will tell more. Nothing like whiplash for Christmas!

If your happy and you know it????

I am so happy that we are all smiling when we walk out the door for church. And I can't say much I am usually the grumpiest.Why does the process have to be so difficult?By the time Max has a fit about combing his hair, putting on church clothes and wearing socks and real shoes. Kate melting down because it is her "fashion day" and she wants her hair in one big piggy not curls and she want to pick her outfit which never goes well. Good thing when we finally get there, attitudes change. Well stupid me, today I thought they looked cute and I would try to get a picture. Well, this is the best I could get today. You should see the others
