Rudy is a "Princess"





e
Oh yes people that is right....Rudy is a PRINCESS!!! Whitney is back in action with her best buddy in the entire world....The Mayor himself Rudy Guiliania Moore! They have had lots of wonderful moments including feeding him half a bag of treats which led to him being a little ill....but the highlight so far was when she said "Ta-Da! Look Mommy Rudy is a Princess!" I hope you enjoy these priceless pics!!! LOVE!

He is a mean one...Uncle Binch....






Okay so he actually isn't mean at all....he is one of the girls favorite people and we don't actually spell his name with an i but....he pretends he is a Grinch at Christmas time so I thought it was fitting. The girls had a great time playing with Uncle Bench at Mimi's house and the especially enjoyed "tickling" him with feather dusters....I thought this was hilarious I am not sure he agreed :)
Love you Bench!!!!

Santa in a Truck!

So...when the rest of us were at the baby shower Papi and Adam watched the girls. They had seen some signs that my parents Home Owners Association was having a Santa come around the neighborhood between 1-2....they kept their eyes out for him and as it neared two o'clock there was still no sign of Santa....then Papi heard honking and ran out to stop Santa while Uncle Adam put one girl under each arm and came running out of the house just in time to visit Santa....in the back of a red truck....yes that is right the girls visited Santa in a truck! Hilarious :)

Just an extra note....my life long bestie....Katie Goose came to the shower today and she is scheduled to be induced on TUESDAY!!! She looked so cute and she is just the sweetest for being there! I can't wait to meet her new addition! When Max was born 2 years ago she was at Whitney's Baptism the day before she was induced! If is a fun tradition to come to a big Moore family event before she gives birth! :) LOL! LOVE YOU GOOSE!!!!

St. Jude's Ranch


Our family had the honor of adopting a Christmas child from St. Judes Ranch in Bulverde, TX this holiday season. I know most people probably think of it like we helped the child we provided Christmas for but she actually blessed my life more than I could have ever imagined. We received her Christmas wish list and went shopping together as a family to get her presents. Then we were able to go out to the ranch and deliver them in person and spend time with our little girl as well as all the kids and staff. Seeing those children and spending time with them... Touring the rooms where they live...it touched my heart in the deepest way. Seeing the joy on that precious girls face when she found out we got her a bike was just overwhelming to me. I hope to continue spending time out at St. Jude's Ranch and I hope our girls will grow up with the same love and compassion for ministering to those in need that my parents raised my sisters and I with...if you have any opportunities come your way to help this organzation or one like it I highly recommend getting involved. Remember Jesus is the Reason for the Season! We love you all!

Thomas and the Train Party



On Saturday Whit had a birthday party to go to for her best buddy in her Mother's Day Out class. Brandon was turning 3 and had a Thomas the Train themed party at his house. It was super cute and complete even with train hats and train whistles. I didn't have my camera with me but when we got home I quickly snapped a few shots of her in her car seat enjoying the party goodies :)

Princess and the Frog

Leaving McDonald's

Picking up our tickets!

Watching the pre-show excited for the movie to start!


Whit had her eyes covered because it was "scary" she uncovered them for a quick pic! :)

On Friday after the Christmas Pageant the girls best buddies, Peyton and Lexi came with us to spend a fantastic afternoon together! :-) We started at out house for some play time and then went to McDonald's for lunch and the girls of course played in the playland and then I took them all (yes 4 precious little girls ages 4 and under) to see Princess and the Frog on opening day at the Movie Theater! We had the BEST time!!! The girls were all perfect and we all had so much fun! The movie was the best Disney I have seen in quite awhile! I highly recommend it for girls and boys! :) Love to you all!

Christmas Pageant Pics...


Ready to head to Coker Day School!


Whit had to make sure I had pictures of her :)


Ready to start the show!


Waiting to begin...


The sillies set in! :)

I hope y'all enjoyed the video clips of Mallory from her Christmas pageant :) It was so cute!!! Here are a few pics that I am just now uploading. Nothing gets your heart in the Christmas spirit like watching a choir of angels made up of God's precious children. Love to you all from Texas!

Here is a couple of clips from the Christmas Pageant at Coker Day School today....Mallory was either fake singing or not singing at all the entire time....she was cracking people up with her stage "performance" I knew it wasn't going to go very well when this morning on the way there she told me..."Mommy I don't want to sit on stage and sing forever....I am tired of it and it gets so boring" I guess maybe they practiced a little too much!!! Hilarious!

Another game of dress up!

My precious princesses!

My little punkin pie!

Silly princess

Whit checking herself out! :)


This afternoon the girls were having so much fun putting on "fashion shows" for me....I guess this is really almost a daily activity but I haven't posted any pictures of the "shows" in quite awhile so I thought I would share a few with you :) They were just totally cracking me up....Mal's tree is right next to the dress up trunk and every time Whit would get something out she would stop and stand in front of the tree and starting singing at the top of her lungs "Christmas tree....oh Christmas tree" and I have to say I was pretty impressed that she knew a lot of the song and even had the right tune!!! Too funny!!! TEXAS LOVE!

Wake Up Call

It looks like Whit is thinking...."Put that camera down and get Mal the heck out of my bed!!!"


Mal is very pleased with herself....Whit is pretty ticked! :)


Soooo....this morning this is what I woke up to....Mal in the crib with Whitney reading her books and trying to keep her quiet "so mommy could sleep" HOW CUTE IS THAT? Mal woke up and heard Whit and came in and saw me sleeping (actually I was just laying there enjoying the chatter from the monitor) so Mal decided to go check on her and "take care of her" seriously the sweetest thing! I enjoyed listening to them for awhile and then Whitney started getting mad at Mal being in her bed so I grabbed the camera and headed in to snap a few shots before I got them out....as you can see Whit is not to pleased with her big sister....I would also love for you all to know these pictures were taken at 6:20 a.m. my precious little early risers! :) TEXAS LOVE!

Mommy's Shopping Closet

Yes that is a Longhorn sweatshirt....


Runway Hug!!!

No worries....here is a Chiefs sweatshirt (not that we want to claim them at the moment)



Where's Whit? :-)


The girls LOVE to play the shopping in Mommy's closet "game"....most people who have visited us have witnessed just how much they LOVE this game! Basically they go into our closet close the door and completely destroy our closet....but they call it dressing up :) Okay I guess the actually do dress up in our clothes, shoes and accessories but after the "game" is over Mommy has a "not so organized" closet to clean up....okay I admit it isn't TOTALLY organized to begin with....anyway...it is SUPER cute to play this game with them and I really love the fashion show after each outfit! TEXAS LOVE!!!

Ahhh! The playroom was CRAZY! We spent a lot of time picking up!


Whitney happily waiting for her brownie!


Of course Mal need to have some of Whit's brownie when she has her own....


As a mentioned in the previous post we had lots of fun spending time with some friends Saturday night. I just had to share some pics of the playroom and the girls enjoying some brownies (basically all they wanted to eat all night!) Thanks Amy and Erin! Love to all!
