The Runyan Family: February 2009

Kids & Dad = FUN!

We look forward to the weekends so we can spend time with Daddy! Todd works two jobs and nights so the only time we get to see him is on the weekends. The kids love their Daddy.

He always has a dirty face! I really can't get enough of him

climbing all over him!

So this is a huge step!! I told jojo to smile for the camera and he stoped and looked right at me and smiled!!!!! So exiting. (little, by little)

John & Daddy!

Can any face get any sweeter!

So nothing is better then to spend time with girlfriends! I'm pretty sure we didn't stop laughing the whole 2 days. It was the funnest, thanks Sara for hosting it. The one thing I learned (besides many other things that will stay private!) is that one night is NOT long enough!!!! Next time we need at least 2 nights if not more. I was not ready to come home, and am counting down the days for the next one.

While we were there we got to hear Sara sing at a benefit dinner. She was amazing like always. Is you haven't heard her sing you are missing out. I think the best part of it was Tori singing along to all the songs!

Nat & Holly! Nat was sick the whole time and was a trooper.

Me, Sara, Tori, & Becky

Us at Picasso's pizza!! The best bread I have ever had. They also have a great gluten free menu for all you autism moms!!!

Charity Charms!

For Christmas Todd got me a Charity charm, & then for valentines day he finished it up with a bracelet to put the charm on. I think charity charms are the neatest things. 75% of the charity charm is donated pack to the charity that you pick. Of course I picked a puzzle piece and gave the donation to ACT today and organization that helps fund therapy's for family's with autism. It's the cutest charm and the cutest bracelet, I LOVE IT. They have so many cute charms to pretty much every charity organization. I absolutely love mine, it was the best present! Thanks Todd. I love you.

They come in this cutest box.

Here is my charm. So cute huh!

Look at the cute bag it came in!

Christmas!

Ok, so I know it's almost March and I'm finally blogging about Christmas. I have been a serious slacker. So I tried to get these pictures in order but it didn't happen. Christmas this year was a lot of fun. John LOVED getting so many presents and had a blast. JoJo on the other hand wasn't so enthused about it. He wouldn't open up any present and didn't want to be in the room when we were opening presents. He warmed up later and came in. I'm hoping next year might be the year where he likes Christmas. John on the other hand loved everything about it. It's so fun to watch him get so excited.
