Merry Christmas Ho! Ho! Ho!

So another Christmas has came and went. The kids had a great time. Jaya loved all of their presents but I think she loved the wrapping paper even more. All she wanted to do was eat it. Jaxon loved every minute of Christmas. This is the first year that he really got it. He had a great time decorating the tree, doing the advent calender everyday, and making reindeer food and cookies for Santa. When Christmas was finally here, he was so excited to see the scooter and helicopter that Santa brought him and the big girl car seat for Jaya so she could be just like him. Now it is time to take the tree down and put all the decoration way and look forward to next year.
Jaya's mug shot. I am not a big bow person but I couldn't resist this one for Christmas.
Jaxon loved all the goodies Santa put in his stocking.

On Christmas Eve we sprinkled reindeer food on the yard so that they wouldn't be hungry. We also left a bowl by the door which Jaxon checked to see if it was gone right when he got up Christmas morning.

Lights at Calm

We took our annual trip to see the lights at CALM. This year Janice, Brandon, Payton and Abbie went with us. Jaxon had a great time riding the train and carousel, drinking hot cocoa, looking at all the lights, and running around with Payton.

Jaxon running around with Payton. She is a runner. Anytime we go anywhere she is running around fast. Jaxon can never even keep up with her. That girl is going to be a sprinter.

Daddy's Girl

I thought I would just post these pictures. I just love them. Jaya loves to do Eskimo kisses and have your face pressed against hers. She just smiles and laughs. She is getting so much personality.

Mani and Pedi

Jaxon absolutely HATES to have his fingernails and toenails cut. I usually have to bribe him with a popcicle in order to get him to let me cut them. Well one day I bust out the foot messager to soak my feet in for a bit. Jaxon thought it was the best thing. Of course he wanted to soak his feet. I explained to him that we soak our feet in order to get them ready to cut your toe nails. He was all over it. I didn't even have to bribe him. He loved it. Maybe I didn't need the daughter to got manis and pedis with after all.
