What we have been up to..

Some happenings at the Bassett house that I am pretty excited about is that we got the internet!! Yes, yes I know it seems like everyone has it these days.. but we have been living in the dark ages for the past three years and now we are moving on up! Santa also gave me my christmas present early because without this fancy computer that I am typing on we would have any reason for the internet! Thanks Santa :) Other happenings are:

Trying to catch up on sleep.. where ever we can get some!

Hunting with dad..
Holding, loving, and just being with baby Sawyer :)
Spending time with cousins. When it comes to Triffin and Lauren you never know if it will be a good day or a bad day :) They love each other and they also love to torment each other!! It is quite comical because they know each other buttons and push them quite often!
We have done a lot of singing and dancing! Lauren informed me that for christmas she would like a guitar, the sunshine one. My mom has a guitar for the little kids and Laurens favorite song right now is You are my Sunshine and she likes to play the guitar and sing You are my Sunshine. So hopefully Lauren will be a good girl and Santa might bring her a guitar!


I didn't know if a picture could show how independent Lauren is, but she is Miss Independent. Right now she is sitting on my lap and asked for her juice. I gave her the juice and she said no, I want to do it and she set the juice back down and picked it up herself! Miss Independent..


Lauren has really blossomed after Sawyer was born and is now not shy AT ALL. She is very outgoing and says hi to anyone and everyone and tells them all about her baby sister, and sometimes tells them "you can't look at my baby sister" and so on and so forth! She is talking like crazy and uses words like rediculous! I need to start writing down all the silly things she says because she is a little ham!
We have been to Chuck-E-Cheese twice in the last month, once with dad just for fun and mostly for dad to play games..


And again for my nefew Kysar's Birthday party!

Uncle Spencer really had Lauren's card at Chuck-E-Cheese, and he helped her with the games.. It was pretty cute!



Here is the kids crew a Kysars party!


Lauren has some of the funniest faces



but she can have some of the sweetest faces too!



We have been so grateful for our baby Sawyer and are so thankful for her. She is such a sweet baby, and we just can't get enough of her. (more to come on her when I post her 2 month post.. I can't believe she is almost 2 months!)


Lauren had a chance to play with Kimberly's kids, and also Hillary made a surprize trip down and so Lauren got to play with Hailey, Kennedy, Jonathan, and Marcus :)
Sawyer also had a photo shoot with Aunt Kimberly, and Hailey is a photagrapher in training! (sorry the pic is so blurry, but I have a better one Kimberly!)


Sawyer was blessed on December 5th by her Grandpa Jolley and he did a great job! She wasn't in the best mood after church so I didn't really get any good pictures, and she was ready to get out of that dress!







Lauren got her first official hair cut by my sisters old roommate Mallory! Lauren did a great job and I am wondering why she can't be that good for me when I do her hair! But Mallory gave Lauren a little trim and strait bangs! I have been trimming Lauren's bangs and I can't cut them strait for the life of me!





Last but not least Lauren got to see Santa and boy did she like him! I didn't know what she would think of him, but she wasn't scarred at all! And yes, she told Santa that she would like a guitar for christmas!
