Christmas 2009

Here are some highlights from Christmas. It was definetly a Dora & Diego Christmas for Kamryn and Christian. The kids were so into Santa and couldn't get enough of him. We explained that Aanta would bring Christian a choo choo train and he would bring Kamryn a Dora doll. Christian insisted that the Christmas lights were turned on if me or Dan forgot and he would always point first to the tree and then to our fireplace wreath.

Kamryn is ALWAYS pushing Christian away or trying to place peoples hands where she wants them to get what she wants. Its pretty funny. Usually Christian is minding his own business and she tries to push him away. He is usually not bothering her. USUALLY

So when all else fails...if the pushing doesn't work...might as well make sure his belly

button is still there.

Look what Santa brought..

No matter that Santa brought 3 Dora dolls and so much other Dora stuff it doesn't hold a candle to cardboard wrapping paper tubes.

First Sleds!! (love the look of impending doom on Christian's face)

Baby Tyler's first Christmas!

The kids love to play the piano at Uncle Mike & Aunt Joanne's house!

Kamryn must have pushed her dad off the bench.

And little miss Bossy Boss just kept on pushing until she had the piano all to herself.

Our stockings hung by the chimney with care.

Visit with Santa

Dan's work hosts a breakfast with Santa every year. There is such a difference between 1 1/2 and 2 1/2 with these kinds of things. One year olds are kind of oblivious and 2 year olds definitely are more aware of what is going on... sometimes more so than adults. So here is Santa..

Kamryn was pretty excited to go up. She kinda marched right up and wanted to sit on his lap.

Christian...not so much.

This is pretty surprising considering this is totally the opposite of who they are in real life. Christian is the risk taker , laid back and always laughing. Kamryn is overly cautious, every move methodicaly planned out, hesitant with everything. Both kids loved the toys that Santa brought them. Christian got a latch/puzzle board and Kamryn got a dolly that she can dress and undress and put to sleep in her crib. See ya next year Santa!
