Merry Christmas!!!

We've been having a great time with our families this holiday season. Uncle Justin, Aunt Kirsten, Uncle Ranen, Mason, and Owen were all in town for Christmas so we spent a lot of time over at Grandma and Granpa G's house this past week. We decided to try to get a nice picture of the four grandbabies on that side of the family, unforunately I don't have any of the four of them just yet but I thought these were cute of Dillon and Kayda. Uncle Ranen did a really good job of getting them to smile. I love the picture of Dillon, he looks so grown up and in the picture of Kayda she just looks like she's having so much fun!

When we were taking the pictures all of the babies were barefoot so I simply HAD to get a picture of all of their feet. From left to right it goes Owen (3.5 months), Dillon (almost 1 year), Kayda (2 years), Mason (2.5 years)

We have very busy Christmas mornings so we had to wake the kids up early. We woke up Dillon and he just wanted to be snuggled until he got himself functioning, when we went in the wake up Kayda we said "It's Christmas, do you want to go open presents" and she sat straight up in the bed with a big smile on her face and said "aye" which is her version of "yes" it must come from her Irish roots.Santa came to visit us on Christmas morning, but the kids got it backwards. The Elmo was meant for Kayda and the sports set for Dillon but they traded and were very entertained with the other person's Santa gift!

Once we opened gifts at our house we went of the Grandma and Grandpa G's to exchange gifts, then went to Grandma and Grandpa H's for another gift exchange and then we went over to Baba's to have breakfast. It was hectic but a lot of fun, Kayda really understood what was going on this year and we're really excited for next year when Kayda AND Dillon will understand the idea of presents. Thank you everyone for their/our gifts we are REALLY enjoying them!

This picture could not be ignored. In case you haven't seen Dillon's eyes, or the pictures don't show them well enough, click on this picture of Dillon. He has the most BEAUTIFUL blue eyes and this picture is one of the first to really do them justice!

For Christmas this year I made my babies each a fleece tie blankets. Grandma and Grandpa G gave them these incredibly cooshy and silky soft pillows. So when we got home it was nap time so we put Kayda's pillow on the couch and wrapped her up in her new blanket. Daddy and I were both incredibly jealous, she looks SO comfortable!!!
