Let me start out by saying this is the first white Christmas that I can remember experiencing. It started snowing this afternoon and lasted until about 9:00 tonight...we came home to about an inch of snow on the ground at our house. Hopefully we'll be able to go out and play in it a little bit tomorrow... It will be Jackson's first snow!
Merry Christmas to you! We had a nice Christmas. Last night the kids opened their new Christmas pajamas.
Rachel was very excited before going to bed but this morning she didn't wake up until 8:30...and then she was very shy and not that interested in what he left for her... She would have rather sat and played with Jackson's new toys, but eventually got into her stuff.
She does like her new scooter!
After it took what seemed like three hours to pack everything and get out the door (is it just us or does it take everyone forever to get out when you have little ones??), we went over to Michael's parents for the afternoon. We were off to a rocky start b/c we accidentally left Rachel's Pooh Bear at home - and for those of you that know her, that is not a good thing. Thank goodness Grandmama had a new little Pooh there at her house that was a good substitution for the day. (Oh, and we found Pooh hiding in the pantry tonight when we got home...)
No such luck on being well this month. It's one thing after another with us these last two months. I had to take Jackson to the pediatrician Friday morning b/c his cough was so bad and he was wheezing...so we get to do a breathing treatment with a nebulizer every few hours on him this weekend...and go back on Monday morning. This is him with the little dinosaur mask on...
We hope you all had a very Merry Christmas!
Jackson got in on the sledding on the second day...This was him going by himself.
And of course the two of them together...
The kids finally went back to school on Thursday - everyone was ready to start getting out of the house again. This was Rachel before school.
During our first trip outside, he fell asleep on me. I brought him in shortly after that and laid him down to unbundle him... He never stays asleep when we are changing him, but he did this time. We call this picture "The autopsy of a polar bear." There's a little boy inside! =)
You can't even see the bottom six or so inches of the playhouse!
I just love Cardinals in snow pictures!
Trying to make a snow angel...much better reaction than last year...
I love this picture!
Tomorrow will be another day to get out and play in the snow...I may not take as many pictures though...we shall see!
Jackson's first snow.
All she wanted to do was eat the snow.
Jackson's first time tasting snow.
This was Rachel's first time snow and her first time eating it...she was 8 months old at the time.
Three years later... Enjoying some hot chocolate after playing in the cold...

His Santa hat is too small now!
She really does love her little brother...
All of us with cute headpieces...
Play time on Jackson's new playmat...
