Merry Christmas!

We had a great Christmas full of family, presents and food! Perfect.We hope you all had a great holiday and enjoyed spending our Savior's Birthday with the ones you love!

Loving the warm fire...in his birthday suit...like usual!

Playing catch with Papa! Everyone came over to our house for breakfast and presents.

Riding his new truck from Auntie Jen and Uncle Will! He loves it, thanks!

Opening up his stocking! Happy as a clam.

Gavin opened each present so slowly. He looked at it, played with it then finally moved on to the next one. It took almost an hour and a half to finish opening all the gifts!

Every kid needs Candyland!

Parker enjoying his jump thing!

So cute!

Chutes and Ladders too!

Cheese!

Gingerbread Cookies!

I found this super cool gingerbread cookie kit at Target. It is by Crayola and it includes: cookie mix, frosting, candy eyes, paintbrushes and edible paint. The boys loved it! It was really cute. They could paint their cookies however they wanted to.

The beginning!

Grandma Viv came over to play (help)!

Nice job Gavin. (We did not wait long enough for the frosting to completely harden, so they had to be super gentle)

Alright Cheese! Not so photogenic!

Parker, seriously the cutest!

Is he not the cutest thing ever?! He is my EXTREMELY happy baby. He is so content and joyful...crazy really! The minute you say his name he opens up his mouth with a HUGE grin! That is why in every picture he looks the same. So photogenic!

He is getting so big! (almost 9 months)

Two new chompers! He now has 4, 2 on  top and 2 on the bottom! He is breaking 2 more teeth now!

So as you can see, he is chewing on everything! Oh, I love him!

Ava Noel Bond

Welcome Ava Noel! My sister Jennifer and her husband, Will welcomed their daughter into the world on Friday, December 12th! Her big brother Addison loves sissy! We are so excited to have a girl offspring! She is beautiful! I love my new niece!

Santa Visit!

Gavin LOVED Santa! He gave him a hug and told him he wanted candy for Christmas...perfect! Parker, not so much! He was in a bad mood...hungry, sleepy and teething! Poor guy! It was fun to do the annual visit. Thanks Grandma and Papa Olynger.

Gingerbread House!

Christmas at the Prado

We went to the "Christmas at the Prado" (or whatever the new politically correct name is)with Kyle's family. It was so fun! The museums were free and there was A LOT to see. 

Kyle trying to look good!

Again....

again....

and again....This boy can not smile! Not photogenic at all!

Gavin means of transportation.

The train museum! Gavin's favorite!

My little blue eyed boy, happy as can be!

Half of the family....

...the other half! (except me and Brenna)

Hooray!

Gavin with Mr. Robot! Gavin doing his scary face. This is his favorite face to do when I am telling him not to do something. Little Monster.
