The kids had such an incredible Christmas... now to find room for all the new stuff!!! I am a horrible multi-tasker... I took video of Christmas morning but NO pictures!!! I cannot believe I did that. I guess our hands were a little full with two kids!! I set the camcorder up on the tripod and we opened gifts with the kids and had such a great time. Mikayla was so much fun she loved everything about Christmas!! Christmas Eve we opened some presents... the ones from the kids to us and from the kids to each other. We also baked a birthday cake for Jesus and had a little birthday party for Him. We woke up Christmas morning to presents from santa and a white Christmas!! Mikayla was soooo excited about both!!! We are so blessed to be able to give our kids a great Christmas... Thank you Lord!!! We got ready and headed to Mamaw and Papa's around noon. Santa visited there as well. Mikayla had wanted a new dollhouse for Christmas... well santa did not deliver the house here. She was very disappointed but little did she know it was waiting for her at Mamaw and Papa's!! Luke is enjoying his new stuff... some things are a little too old for him... he got a lot of 6month stuff. We all had a wonderful Christmas!! We did miss AJ Christmas morning... it was not the same without him sneaking around the tree shaking all the presents!!
Can't believe my little guy is 5 months old today!!! He is getting to be a big boy!! He is eating 6.5 - 7 oz every 3-4 hours, eating baby food, and sleeping at least 10 hours every night! He loves bathtime, laughing, "talking", his sister, sportscenter, and his jumparoo!! Oh, and his fingers and toes!! He is trying to crawl, if he could get his knees under him he would be gone. Not sure if I am ready for that yet!! His favorite foods right now are squash and peaches.
Mikayla is loving all her new toys... I think her favorites right now are her dollhouse and her leapster explorer(handheld video game). She is going through a rotten stage right now... testing her boundaries. She likes to ignore us when we ask her questions and likes 500 kisses and hugs at bedtime!! Typical 3 year old, I guess!! She got an easy bake oven for Christmas and last night we made soft pretzels, which she loved!! Had a playday for her friend Isabella yesterday. They played with castles and a ball pit, and had a picnic is the kitchen!! Last night when she was going to bed she told me "I miss Isabella". So sweet!! She loves Disney channel shows (the big kid shows)... Zach and Cody, Wizards of Waverly Place, Good luck Charlie, and Phineas and Ferb... she still likes Mickey Mouse the best though. She has informed me that she wants a Micky Mouse birthday party and Luke should have one too. And she also loves cooking shows on the food network... Rachel Ray is her fave. Well, Luke is waking up... will have to put pictures on here later.
