Christmas 2008

We had a wonderful Christmas! I wish that it could have been a little warmer (it was about 18 degrees) but other than that it was perfect. We were lucky enough to have family come and visit us and it was really nice to just stay home and have the kids be able to have Christmas at our house.

Lily got a few noisy, noisy toys and lots and lots of clothes. Thank you friends and family! Lately she has been busy getting into everything that she is not supposed to. For example - the dog toys and computer :)

Dylan got an iPod shuffle, some Wii games, a laptop thingy, and many, many other things. He is a lucky boy! Some of the toys that he got I think the adults had more fun with than him! He was so excited for Christmas this year and kept asking over and over when it was or reminding me how many days that we had left before "the big day". When Christmas night finally came we put him to bed only to find out that a bit later he had fallen asleep on the couch next to the tree to wait for Santa :)

It has warmed-up a little today and we are in the middle of the last Seahawks game of the season :( Hope that everyone had an fantastic holiday! We are looking forward to the new year!

Crawling Baby

Yes, it is true Lily is crawling! She started last week - not quite six-months-old! Check it out on the video. She scoots all over the place on her belly.

December 2008

Well, we've had a busy month so far, I bet everyone has! There are so many things to do before the holidays.

I went to get the kids pictures taken with Santa the other day and on the way there Dylan informed me that he was too old to get his picture with Santa. As you can see we sqeezed one out of him anyways.

Lily is getting so big and is almost completely mobile. She rolls like crazy and is scooting around the place after her toys. She is also eating like crazy! We are sad because she is growing up so quickly.

Today it started snowing for the first time up here in Wenatchee this year. Lillian's first snow!
