Christmas Morning

Whit was really excited this year for Christmas. It was so much fun to come down the stairs and hear his fun reaction to the presents under the tree. He loved this cars umbrella, opening presents and pulling everything out of his stocking. Taylor didn't understand and didn't really figure out how to unwrap anything so she just sat so sweet watching Whit and let him help her open her presents. But of course she tried to get in and play with all the toys and games with Whit. I love to watch them play and interact together as long as Whit is nice to her, but she is getting to be pretty tough already!


A few days later Grandma Karen came to visit and It was like Christmas morning all over again. Whit got this "Woody" and loves it! He was so excited he got a little teary eyed. His new best friend. Thank You Grandma!

Christmas Eve

We had such a fun Christmas Eve, we made Ginger bread houses (mine turned out more like a big semi truck though :) with the Dunn's and the Poole's. Whit and Samantha were having a great time helping me decorate and eat all the fun treats.

Later the kids got to open their Christmas Jammies. Whit was so excited to open his present, and he was even more excited when he found the new Jammies! Taylor mostly just sat there looking cute holding her present and didn't know quite what to do with it, but she was excited to put her Jammies on too.


Then last minute, we decided to run to walmart to get a web cam since the one we had didn't work with our new computer. We could not believe how many people were at Walmart 30 mins before it closed on Christmas eve, the whole store was packed. The kids actually loved our last minute excursion. They both fell asleep in the car on the way home, which made bed time a lot easier.

Our Snow Day!

Last Winter we had a big snow storm and we were so surprised, we didn't think it was going to happen again. It snowed a week before Christmas and we were able to enjoy it all week long. Whit was so excited to play in the snow, make a snowman and snow angels!

What a Princess

Taylor is so much fun to play with. She loves being thrown on the Love Sac, when Daddy stops she starts to cry. It is so cute, when she is having fun doing something she doesn't like to stop. (She is a lot like Whit!) Her little laugh and smile are so precious.



She is growing up so fast. She loves to push this little toy around. She can walk pretty good as long as she has something to hold onto, otherwise she crawls all over.

I couldn't resist?!

Whit loves to wear his Spiderman and Incredibles Costumes all the time, but one day I got out of the shower to find Whit in this...



I just couldn't resist telling him to pose for me. Jake couldn't believe I took a picture of Whit "dressing up" but I am pretty sure I have seen a picture of him in a tutu before if only I had it! Like father like son right?!!

Happy Halloween in December

I am just a little late to finally get this up, but here was our Halloween Fun!
The kids were so cute. Whit loved his Spiderman costume and still asks to wear it all the time. Taylor made the sweetest Little Ladybug I have ever seen. The Tutu was so cute I had to take a picture of her in just that! Whit still talks about Halloween all the time and is always asking what we are going to be next Halloween. I think it might be his favorite Holiday, but we'll see Christmas is starting to get really exciting too!
We went to our Ward Trunk or Treat Party without Dad because he was out of town for an ADEA Conference, but we were glad to have him back to go Trick or treating with us on Halloween.

Disney on Ice

We got to go see Disney on Ice. Whit had so much fun. I let him wear his Incredibles costume, he was so excited! When we got there I was a little worried because the lights were off and the music was really loud. He was holding onto me with a death grip and was really scared, but as soon as we found our seats and he saw Nemo it got better. He really loved Mickey Mouse, Woody and Buzz and the Incredibles, but his favorite part was Pinnochio (even though he was scared when the whale came out). He still talks about it, "Remember when the Whale swallowed 'Nochio'." He is so funny when he talks about it.
