Santa

A lady in our ward set up a professional set and took pictures of all the kids with Santa and Mrs. Claus at our ward Christmas party last week.

Bibs

Somebody on my dad's mail route made this cute bib for Soren.  Today he found it and brought it to me so I put it on him and he had a great time roaming the house in it.

 

 

 

Speaking of bibs...tonight we were all in the kitchen getting dinner together and Soren pulled his bib out of the kitchen drawer.  I put it back when he wandered off, but he quickly came back and pulled out again and handed it to me.  I guess he was ready for dinner...

Busted

We have firm rules about Radley not being allowed on the furniture.  But Richard decided that she could be on the MonsterSak with him when he has a blanket on...now anytime he lays on the MonsterSak and puts the blanket on Radley darts to her new favorite spot.

 

Soren's Playroom

I have been wanting to get Soren's playroom together since the day we moved in and we finally did it.  I am thrilled with how it turned out.  We don't actually have a closed off area for the playroom, we just converted our dining room area (because we don't need a dining room).  We may paint the walls, we haven't decided yet, but that may happen in the near future.

 

 

 

 

 

 

Poor Sick Baby

This is what my poor little bug does when he is feeling miserable.  It completely broke my heart to see how sick he felt (threw up 6 times in 3 hours).  :(  But I would be lying if I didn't say that I was loving all the cuddle time!  

That was yesterday, today he is on the mend.  I can tell it is recovery day as he fell asleep on the couch at 11am (he usually naps around noon and sleeps only in his crib).  He slept for 1.5 hours.  Played for a bit, then fell asleep on me again around 3:45.  He then woke up and threw up.  :(  On the mend...by no means completely better.

I think recovery day is harder than the actual day of being sick.  Yesterday he was just content to cuddle all day.  Today he wanted to play, but didn't really feel good, so he was much crankier.  But at least things weren't as messy...

Touchdown

This is what happens with Soren hears the word "touchdown."  EVERY TIME.  That's my boy!

Friends

Our friends Cassandra, Emerson and Lily came from Tyler, TX to spend the weekend with us and we had a blast.  We played games on Friday night while the babes slept.  Then on Saturday we took turns watching the kids and going to the temple.  It was a very fun weekend.
