Have yourself a Merry Little Christmas

Christmas 2012 for our family was great, our kids are all the perfect ages to celebrate..... so much EXCITEMENT in the air! I'm thankful these photos will always remind me of that excitement.

CHORUS & SCHOOL PERFORMANCES

Benson's first time performing, which we found out he really enjoys.

SNOW DAYS

LOTS OF DADDY TIME (which I think was Suy Guys favorite part of Christmas)

GINGERBREAD HOUSE, which was made and then eaten after five minutes of being made...look at that yummy grease around the base of the house ;)

CHRISTMAS EVE

CHRISTMAS MORNING

BABY BRIGS FIRST CHRISTMAS

Obviously we couldn't get enough of the Santa suit...... Thank You Doug!

My TWO front teeth

Benson has been wiggling his two front teeth for about a month now, on Friday morning when I was brushing his teeth he asked if they were close to coming out. So I started tugging on them on sure enough they were close!

The first tooth was holding on tight and it took me some pretty hard tugs to get it out, I was laughing because Benson just held on to the bathroom counter and said "okay.... GO MOM!"and he really let me pull as hard as I wanted without even budging. I kept thinking he was going to cry or get mad...but he was patient and the only sound I heard from him was an "aaahhhhh". So after the first one was out I said, "should we get your other one out too?" he replied, "YES! then I can get FOUR Dollars from the tooth fairy!"

Front tooth #2 came way easier. It's a good thing because he was barely on time for school. When I dropped him off he gave me a toothless grin and said "thanks for pulling my teeth out Mom."

I love this boy.

*Don't worry I did wash his bloody finger before sending him off to school.

It's officially official, Suy Guy is Two! He has a hard time keeping his hands off the tree and the ornaments.

Our poor tree had enough of the abuse and..... TIMBERRRRRRRRR-she was down in seconds.

End of November

Can you even believe this weather? I took this picture two days ago, and I keep looking at it thinking it's a summer picture, not an end of November picture. Enjoy it while it lasts kids!

Me @ Thirty-Three

I just turned Thirty-Three! I can't really even believe it when I say I am 33, I feel like I should still be in my early twenties. Thirty-Three is great though. When I was younger and anyone asked me what I wanted to be when "I grow up", I would always reply "A MOM".

Well I most certainly got what I wanted and the great thing about being thirty-three is that I am right in the thick of being a Momma :)

Who wouldn't love to spend their days bathing this....
