Christmas Morning

Christmas morning was the best!  The only flaw was Christian's absence.  Brooke's favorite movie to watch for the last 6 weeks was The Grinch with Jim Carey.  I think Ben and I know every line and breath taken in that movie.  So when you look at our picture of the tree look for the Grinch. There are 2 of them. I know it looks like there are a ton of gifts filling our living room but keep in mind there are gifts for 8 people under the tree as Grandma and Grandpa Fox, as well as Uncle Corey, Adel and Aunt Jessy all joined us Christmas Morning.

 As you all know when we asked Brookey what she wanted form Santa she said Cookies and Candy Canes so naturally she went for those first.  I think if she had to pick a favorite toy though she woulds say it is her new Kitchen.

Charlotte LOVED her toys!  She is so excited to play with the colorful balls and raddle's.  She wore herself out playing with Grandma all morning.

Christmas Eve

We celebrated Christmas Eve at Uncle Mike's house.  It's becoming a tradition which is really nice.

Of course Michael had his home with beautiful Christmas decorations.  I just had to share so I took some pictures.

Brookey loved to get into EVERYTHING!

Michael was so sweet to let her touch his things...though Ben and I were behind her every minute praying she wouldn't break anything.

I caught her eating Chocolate out of the treat bowl on the counter.

We had a great time! Michael had a wonderful spread of delicious goodies and dinner was amazing!

 

Let's play babies!

"Charlotte! What are you doing in there?"

Silly Girl.

Thank you Ann!

My little care Taker

So one day I was in the kitchen doing dishes and heard Brookey say to Charlotte, "let's blow your nose baby girl, you have boogies."

Thanks Giving

We had a wonderful Thanks Giving this year!  Ben's boss Joyce was kind enough to open her home to us and all our rug rats to share in the festivities.  Her and Steve prepared a delicious dinner with all the traditionals, followed by an ever so decadent dessert bar full of a variety of indulgences.  It's safe to say we went home with full bellies.  I wanted to share some photos of the event.

I think I caught Christian off guard. :) He still looks cute though.

Brookey LOVED the John Deer Tractor.

Okay so can I just tell you Joyces' Grandma Norma has to be the sweetest lady ever!  She wouldn't put Charlotte down the entire time.  Her and Baby are best friends. It was great to be able to enjoy myself and have Charlotte happy as can be.

This is Tucker, Joyce's son.  What a cutie pie!  Christian and Tucker had a blast together.  There were about 7 kids there and all of them played great with one another. Most of the time Christian had them herded like little sheep in the street to play football with him. 

It was so nice to have Jess there with us too.  We had some great laughs that night!  Anyone wanna watch Millionare Match Maker???
