Christmas is coming...

My Christmas kids!  They are getting SO excited!  

Still putting everything in her mouth...
This is not the best picture, but I love her little face in it.  Her dress is from her daddy.  He picked it out all by himself in Malaysia.   He couldn't wait to bring it home and show it to me and her.  

Gus has still been visiting when the kiddos are being good.  I love these little tags he put on some gifts he left under the tree one night for us.  Kaden was so thrilled to wake up to see some presents since I do not wrap until the very last minute.  I don't want peekers and also do not trust Addie!  
Presents from Gus


The opening in the morning

Everyone got new Christmas p.j.'s!


Last year at Christmas, the boys got SO many things, I decided to hold a few things back for when we have those "I'm bored" days.  During our big snowstorm, the boys didn't have school and I was at my wit's end.  We had all this snow outside, but it was dangerously cold, so outside play was not happening.  I remembered Aunt Jessica got the boys some cute little crystal trees.  I ran upstairs, dug them out of a little box I had a few things left from LAST CHRISTMAS and brought them down.  The boys LOVED them.  A neat little science experiment and Christmas decor in one!  I have them on my kitchen windowsill...they are really pretty!


I still am shocked that I kept these alive AND blooming so pretty! I will be buying one every year from now on.  It does something for my mood to see a flower blooming in the dead of winter.   


Nothing better than watching the wonder of Christmas in a little one's eyes!

"Where's the heart ornament, Addie?"


A really nice gift from some really nice friends! 
Mmm!  Goodies!  And Lisa's fudge!  Give me a SPOON!
