I
have been so horrible with my blog posting. Not sure when I started
putting these pictures up, but here I am finally posting it.
We had a good Christmas, Darci and Jarret opened one present on Christmas Eve, they got new pj's, of course! ;)
Here they are waiting to open their pj's.
Darci
helped make some cookies to leave for Santa, with some milk of course.
And she likes to write him a little note to remind him what she asked
for.
Our tree after Mommy and Daddy, and Santa left our gifts for the kids. The big bear is for Darci from Daddy!
Her magic wand from Grandma and Grandpa Larsen
New puzzle
After
we had Christmas morning at our house, we headed over to my Mom and
Dads to open gifts from them. As we were leaving Jarret went running
down the hall with a toy and fell, hitting his head on the drawer handle
at the end of the hall. Being the horrible mother that I am, I didn't
notice that he had split his head open until after I put him in the car,
and then came back to give him something and saw that he had blood
dripping down his head. Here is a picture after it was all cleaned up.
In
hopes of getting my little "head splitting, teething, grumpy little
boy" in a better mood, we let him start the present opening right away,
by opening this gift from Grandma and Grandpa Bird. He was pretty
excited.
If only that lasted. He wasn't too interested in opening any more presents...
Just drinking his milk and sitting with Grandma or Grandpa.
It
was great to have everyone together, opening presents with little kids
is the best, Darci and Wyatt ripped right into their gifts, Easton went
very slowly. And Jarret just wasn't interested, but I think he enjoyed
watching the other kids as much as the rest of us, ;)
Most of what I captured of Christmas was video, and unfortunately I can not upload any of them to the blog, not sure why.
We also spent Christmas Eve at my parents house, eating a yummy dinner, and my mom got these glasses for the kids.
A picture of the kids, just for fun. It's near impossible
to get a pic of them both smiling and looking at the camera without
hands in faces and hair. We got close, but not quite.
Love Jarret's face on the bottom left. ;)
