Christmas 2009

December flew by with all the Christmas activities and the kids being sick most of the month-colds then hand/foot/mouth again, then sinus infections after Christmas! We have to give Cason 5 different medicines at night before bed, including a 5 minute breathing treatment! Needless to say we are ready for spring already! Below are a few highlights from the month

We changed the routine of Christmas this year to try and make things a little different since we are missing Kelsey! We attended a friend's church for the Christmas Eve service, it was very contemporary and fun, followed by coming to our house (first time we haven't spent it at my parents!) for dinner and presents. Cason is surrounded by just a few of his presents!
Kiley was more into present opening than Cason, she loved everything! Here she is opening her princess purse filled with her first play rings, necklaces, and bracelets!
Attempting a family photo is never easy, closest we could get with everyone looking!
One of Cason's favorite gifts was a bunch of play dishes, which he opened first. For the rest of the night, he put the dishes in and out of different bags in the room! Kept him entertained for hours!
Kiley said her first sentence when she opened this present- " I got Barney!" All four of us heard it and were amazed! Of course we have not heard it again, but she was so excited! This was also the first present she opened too, we could have stopped there with both and they would have been very happy!

Papa keeping them busy with empty boxes, waiting to open presents, while the rest of us finished eating.
Zoolight safari, both of their favorite thing out of all the lights and activities was this!!




They loved running up to all the lighted blow-ups and trying to climb on them!

Loving on their twin gingerbread stuffed animals that NeNe gave them!

Playing with NeNe after baking cookies together all day! So glad we live close and can plan days like this at short notice!

First time decorating Christmas cookies, they kept wanting to eat them of course and the sprinkles went everywhere! We had so much fun!

First frosted sugar cookie, loved the frosting all over both of their faces!
