Isaac turned 2! Yay Isaac! We had a really fun party with Jonathan's Family and my parents! They came in town to celebrate! It was 70 outside when they were here and they left just in time because we had a snow storm the next day! It got down to 8 degrees! We had black outs and ice storms and Jonathan got 2 days off work! yay for hanging out in the house together! Isaac got Cars and all 4 Ninja turtle movies so we had movie parties! So fun!

BYU Magazine

Were in a Magazine! The BYU Magazine did an article with us in it. You can view it online at http://magazine.byu.edu/?act=view&a=2724 The part about us is called giving back and paying forward. This is the other picture they took but ended up using a different one. Our picture online is on the right side of of the article.

Christmas was so wonderful this year. We had Christmas with my family Jonathan's family and the Colton's. It was exciting because Isaac was old enough to kind of understand what was going on. He got double the presents this year because Allie can't stop him from stealing all of hers. :) Bruce and Katie and Julie and Tyson were in town and we spent a lot of time with them. The girls made lots of hair accessories like the purple one Allie is wearing in the picture. It was so much fun. Thank you so much to everyone for celebrating with us. Isaac has just started the terrible twos and Allie has become mobile so I am learning to work a little harder! Even nighttime has been a lot of work with both of them not going to sleep and waking up. I think they are both teething so that gives hope of an end in sight. We are having so much fun. Besides the fact that it gives us colds, one nice thing about Texas is we have random days that are 70 degrees out so we can still go to the park and play in the backyard. Isaac is turning two on the 26th! I'm so excited. My parents are coming in town and we're decorating a cake and I"m getting Isaac a Beta fish for his birthday! The Video of Jonathan and Jason moving around is from playing Kinect. You hook it up to your x-box and you don't need a controller. SO they were playing a game where their water tank had holes in it and they had to plug them up. Its really fun. My favorite is the dancing game. Jonathan's uncle Jimmy's family got it for Christmas. Isaac and Allie get along so well when Isaac wants them too. He either shares and helps her when she's crying and laughs and plays peek-a-boo. Or he rips away her toys and yells no and hits her. He's funny. He's just learned how fun it is to kick and throw things around the house. Yikes. For the new year Jonathan's workout equipment reimbursement from Scottrade restarts. We got P90X and the things that go with it. So we're going to work out and eat healthy and be in good shape! Allie is scooting quite quickly and she gets on all fours and crawls a little bit. She is so close. We are having a great time and we're very happy.

Isaac tries to carry as much as possible. He stole all the ornaments off the tree and scattered them. He loves to take his trucks everywhere he goes - to bed to the store, to the kitchen ect. Allie has been making funny faces and noises. She is a bit of a drama queen. Her little pout is so sad its impossible to ignore.

I was trying to take a picture of Isaac and Allie and Isaac rips her headband off and sitcks it on his head. : ) To funny Isaac. Especially since thats the best picture of the two of them together. But I'll just save it as blackmail. Isaac was invited to his first kids birthday party! It was his friend Billy. He was turning three and when his mom asked who he wanted to invite he said Isaac! I was so excited. They are our good friends that i go to the library and park with on Tuesdays. Allie loves jumping. She has not done very well this last week. We've been up all night. She's been screaming and upset. I think we finally figured out what it is. I just started her on rice cereal and Isaac couldn't tolerate it. So I'm mashing bananas and she has shown dramatic improvement. I think she maybe teething also, but I always think that. We are really excited for the holidays. We've been to two Christmas events and it is so exciting to see Isaac enjoy his first Holidays!
We're going to be in BYU Magazine! They interviewed us a few weeks ago and on Monday a photographer came and took our picture for the article. Its about how we're the youngest members of the Jesse and Amanda Knight Society. It will be in the Winter Issue! Yay!

Its Christmas time! Thanksgivimg was great at Jonathan's Grandparents and we were sent home with lots of leftovers. We put up pur Christmas lights and I'll be getting out the decorations soon. I am so excited because its allie's 1st Christmas and the first time Isaac will be getting presents and know whats going on. My dear friend Savannah gave him a police truck and he loves it. We are all very sick. We took the kids to the dr and allie had a fever last night. I have been up at night with sick kids and am sick myself. I am really tired. Isaac has been so sweet to Allie. Sharing toys, playinh peek-a-boo, pushing her in the swing and feeding her. She was covered in Isaac's pasta dinner. For Christmas Jonathan installed new floors in my kitchen! They were previously just the same laminate as the rest of the house. The floors make the kitchen bigger, nicer and its own room instead of an extension. He is such a great husband. Merry Christmas!
