Parties

We had our party at daycare! Loved all of the presents. Here is John claiming no one can touch his.

The wild threesome. In their Sunday best.

Future engagement photo.

And then we were off to the cookie and pizza party! Thank you Robinsons! So fun!

You can clearly see John has the same amount as Katy.

Let's decorate them! So exciting!

Wait. Where did John's go? Shame.

And then there was pizza. This was the biggest pizza I have ever seen. It actually had to be turned sideways to get in the door. Awesome! John was pumped.

And then disappointed he could not get to it.

But we all managed to get some.

Oh John....

he does not understand how strong he is! I am sure this is the first of many to come but man did it hurt. He asked me later how I got my boo boo. Shame.

We all know it has to get worse before it gets better.....

Merry Christmas 2011

So a reverse order Christmas is what we are having....too many pictures! This was the end of the whirlwind! Let's hope the same enthusiasm still applies when we actually potty train.

The day after Christmas Santa pancakes!

Paps recorded everyone a book for Christmas! We love them!

Paps giving the books out!

That is a real man folks....with a power tool and some rain boots.

Cousin Love! We had the McCrary family at our house after Christmas to share some presents!

Virginia loved her new Mickey jewelry and purse set!

John playing trains with Uncle Ken.

The biggest hit were the umbrellas. Hope it rains soon!

We got new stools for our new kid-friendly bathroom. So fun. Now let's really start brushing our teeth.

So sweet!!!

Seriously a fan of the umbrella.

And maybe the trampoline Santa brought him.

Virginia was serious about present opening. She offered to open all of John's presents and he let her. Shocking. They both asked for a baby doll....this is her new Dora baby doll.

But the best Santa gift by far was for Virginia. Somehow Santa got Mommy's old doll house and gave it a remodel with new furniture.

This was our very first Christmas at home. Complete with milk for Santa, cookies, and food for the reindeer!

And we were off to the Koontz family Christmas in Maryland! Here is John....looking longingly at his new train set.

The cousins put all of the train under the tree!

Yes, she can ride a skateboard in her new dress up outfit!

Bedtime stories with Maya!

Just reading with Kendall!

Present opening....oh my!

His very own skateboard!

She was a fan of her dress up outfit and refused to not wear the heals!


And the Koontz family football game happened...
