Stuck in the potty

Lacey has a training potty sitting next to the bathtub, and one day when bathing she pulled the potty in the tub with her and was playing with it. She climbed inside it, which was cute at first, but then when I tried to pull her out, she was STUCK!!! I had to call in re-enforcements (Chris) and together we couldn't get her out. Just when we were looking for the saw to cut it off her, we were able to turn her sideways and just yank it out- leaving red marks on her legs. So new moms, word of the wise, training pottys shouldn't be play toys!!!!

Gatorland

We went to Gatorland - compliments of Chris's work for hooking us up with free passes. They have hundreds of gators, and we got to see a gator wrestling match, which is actually not as cool as it sounds.

Christmas

Christmas in Florida was definately different -75 Degrees! Lacey got a trike, a bike, and a 4 wheeler! The oldest child syndrome is true - she is definately spoiled! And in two months, she gets a little sister!
Here is Lacey on her for-wheeler - all dressed up in all her jewelry she got, of course! She LOVES playing dress-up.

Thanksgiving

Here we are sledding in Idaho on man-made snow since there was no real snow yet!

Sun Valley

Here we (the Shirley family)are ice skating in Sun Valley for Thanksgiving. Also, here are Lacey, Canon, Londyn and Halle going sledding on Dollar mountain on 100% man-made snow since it was too warm for real snow!

Deidre & Chris at Epcot for Chris's Work Party

Chris's work got us tickets to the Disney Yacht and Beach Club Hotel and we stayed the night there, and also went out to eat at Epcot. The food was too fancy for me - I didn't likeit, but Chris loved it! I am 5 1/2 months pregnant in the photo - thats why I look so huge!
