Christmas did come!

Christmas really did come to our home, I know I am a couple weeks past, but I still needed to post!

I walked into the room and found the girls sitting like this. Jons mom gives all of her grandkids a Christmas Bear for the year they were born. Except Kaylee had Kenzies and Kenzie had Kaylees. I had to snag a picture it was so cute seeing the three of them together like that.

Santa did come!

The girls were excited. Kenzie was still a little tired, can you tell?

Kaylee got Squenkies, which were put away two days later, I will give them to her when her sister quits putting everthing in her mouth. We didn't realize how small they were til Kenzie tried getting to them. We went and let her pick out a toy to replace them. She was okay with that. She got a Baby All Gone.

Abbie loves Little People things! She got this garage as well as the Little People plane. I was glad she was okay with the Little People one and not the Barbie one!

Kenzie really just enjoyed the wrapping paper. That was her favorite part!

Our family Christmas picture. Can you tell there were two people taking pictures? We didn't get one where we were all looking at the same camera. That's ok. I still think we are an adorable family!

My mom got Abbie and Faye matching outfits. Nick and Stacey came to church with us the day after Christmas and so we just had to get a picture of the two of them.

Kaylee was eating a piece of chocolate cheesecake, but didn't want it anymore so she set it on the floor. Kenzie took full advantage of that and was shoving it in her mouth as quickly as possible. Even when we took it away from her she was shoving her hand in her mouth trying to savor every last bit.



You can't have snow and not have a snowman, right? Jon and Kaylee built this.

Our Good Luck Charm

Our family has discovered that we have a little good luck charm. If you guys have been reading my blog, then you would know that back in March, while I was pregnant with Kenzie I entered a drawing at Fresh Market and won a shopping spree. We stocked up on diapers and wipes and got $430 worth of free stuff. Then, I hadn't had been planning on having Kenzie, so I lended our crib to my sister Emily. After I loaned it I found out that I was pregnant, so Jons school friend gave us his crib since they were done having kids. After he gave it to us, we discovered that it had been recalled and took it to Target and got a brand new really nice crib at a minimal fee. Well, after I had Kenzie, I opened her a bank account at Mountain America Credit Union. I didn't know that at the time I opened it that they were running a promotion and all children's accounts that were opened were entered into a drawing. Well, today, I got a call from Mountain America saying that Kenzie's name had been drawn and she won a bike. It cracked us up!! A little 5 month old won a bike!!! We thought it would just be a small children's bike, so we go to pick it up and it was a Mongoose full BMX bike. Jon was so excited! He played on it when we got home and Kaylee rode it around as well. We let Kenzie be the first to try it out though, after all, it is her bike!

Funny Stuff Part 2

The other day we were sitting in our front room and I was looking at our tree and I said, "Jon, do you think OUR TREE is boring?"
Jon:  "Why would you ask me that?"
Me: "Well, I don't know it just seems like OUR TREE is a little boring!" 
Jon: "Well I have never done it, how would I know?" 
Me: "Well, I just think maybe it's too plain and boring. Why do you not think so?"
Jon: "Well, I don't know. I don't know if it's boring or not. How boring do you think it would be? You get a bow and an arrow and you shoot stuff."
Me: "What the heck are you talking about?"
Jon: "You asked me if ARCHERY was boring. I don't know. I have never done it."
Me: "Not ARCHERY, OUR TREE!!!???"
Jon: "Oh, I think it looks very good."

Kaylee comes running in to me the other day and says, "Mom! I know what I want for Christmas!!!!" So I said, "What do you want?" And she gets really excited and says, "I want my very own laptop!!!"
YEA RIGHT!

On a side note. Our little Kenzie is growing up so much! She is sitting up and has started scooting. She always has something important to say, and when she decides she wants to say something she is going to say it. Even if it is 2:00 in the morning. I love my girls! I am so happy that Kenzie is such an angelic baby!!
