I think this might be the longest BLOG post that I've ever left. But I wanted to recap our month of December, because I've been slacking!! And there was so much to chat about from this past month! So, here goes! I'll start with how I feel...
Poor baby had played so hard all day, that he came in, took his track pants off, and he crashed! Don't worry! We woke him up to bathe him! ;)
We went to my parent's new home in Fulshear to celebrate with my mom's family. It was the day after the big Houston Snow Day, so we got to see a little bit of snow left over on the grass...
The reunion was fun, and the boys love seeing and playing with their mommy's cousins' kids (anyone know a better way to say that?) And my boys ate & ate...especially all the cookies & candy! They also loved seeing their great-grandma, Nana!!...
The next morning, we celebrated Brogan's 3rd birthday with my family. My mom & dad got Brogan a Megatron from the Transformers. Well, if you touched the wrapped gift, Megatron would start talking. It was hilarious because it was freaking Brogan out! He'd laugh hysterically because he thought it was so funny, but I also think he was a little scared...
Then we drove back to NB, straight to Mimi & Pop Pop's house. We had another birthday celebration for Brogan! He loves his new Razor scooter and his new John Deere Gator!!!...
The next day was Brogan's real 3rd birthday, so of course, another celebration! Brogan opened a few presents in the morning, and then we had our friends from Small Group come over to play!...
We had another fun party with my small group the next week! It's so fun to watch Brogan play with his buddies!...
Dayton & Grady's school put on the play, The Mitten for their kindergarten production! Grady had the role of the wolf, and Dayton opted to be the "curtain opener" instead of actually being IN the play!...
And Brogan...need I say more?...
Dayton and Grady each had a small Christmas celebration in their classrooms...
Then we headed back to Fulshear for a party of my more immediate family. Uncle Beau & Andy got to come in to visit from Chicago! The boys were excited to see them, and even more excited to get to play with their cousin, Hailey!...
And our gift exchange wouldn't have been complete without a screaming tantrum from Brogan! He thought all of the toys were HIS!!!...
This past week, school has been out! Fun...but oh my! It's crazy having all three boys home all day, every day! So, we planned some fun things to do. We had a big craft project and made Christmas table decorations for our Christmas Eve dinner...
And we decorated gingerbread men one day, and ate all of them, of course!...
Last night, we celebrated Christmas Eve and the birth of baby Jesus at our church. Dayton and Grady had been practicing each week to sing a son with the children's choir. Grady did awesome!!!! And Dayton didn't quite make it to the stage. ;(...
Back home for some of Daddy's best chili...
Putting out the reindeer food...
Ahhhhhhhhhhhhh, and this morning! Christmas morning! Is there anything like it?!!
The boys came in to the playroom to find that Santa had been there!!! Santa was too smart and got the boys lots of costumes to play dress-up in...must have been some left-overs from Halloween! (Santa, that was super-cost-efficient! ;))...
They had so much fun! They were all excited about the cool things that they got, and they played all day! Well, they fought a little here and there, but they played & played! Now, again, the opening of presents, would not have been complete without a total meltdown for Brogan with him saying "That mine, that mine, that, mine" to all of the toys that he wanted! Poor thing!!!...
Well, I hope your day was Merry!!! I hope today found you in a good place that was filled with comfort and joy! Goodnight!
