Christmas 2010

Whew.....we had a great Christmas, but I'm so glad to be home for the week and taking a breather. Santa came to visit of course and then we headed to DeQueen to have Christmas with our family. Avery was great at opening his presents this year! It was also Sutton's first Christmas.

This Christmas brought lots of laughs and smiles!!!

We also celebrated Aunt Amber's birthday!

I hope everyone had a great Christmas!! We sure did :)

Santa Talks!

We FINALLY got to visit Santa today. We went a couple of weeks ago, but the wait was going to be like 2 hours or something! So, I loaded up the boys this morning and we got there right when Santa did. Avery kept asking if we were going to see snow...I explained to him that there wasn't any snow...so he said "Is there just grass???" Sweet boy....Once we got there, we waited patiently for about 30 minutes. Avery anxiously awaited getting to sit in Santa's lap. I had know idea how he was going to react. He did great! He was shy...not scared. I'll take shy over scared any day! When it was our turn, the picture dude had to go get something, so Santa and Avery were able to have a moment as you will see in the pictures below. At one point, Avery heard Santa say something and he turned to me and said "Momma, Santa talks!" Of course Sutton just did his thing and hung out...no worries.

Ok...if you know my husband, you know he absolutely can NOT wait to give gifts. He was trying to make me open mine this past Sunday....I finally gave in and opened it tonight for him. He just can't stand it. He gets so excited. So of course we had to let Avery open an early present. He LOVED it. Moon Dough....but guess what....Brian and I do NOT love it. It is just awful. I figured it would be great. Boy was I wrong. This stuff does not pack together, breaks into little pieces, and gets EVERYWHERE. I do not recommend Moon Dough!!

If your wondering about my gift....it was a new camera! So you know what that means....pictures, pictures, and more pictures! It is just perfect. I take so many pictures that I needed a GOOD camera. This one is just perfect for me because it's the right size, takes great pictures, and easy to use. Thank you honey! You are so thoughtful. :)

Sweet Sutton

It was just Sutton and I this weekend. The big boys went to DeQueen and hung out with family. Sutton and I finished up the Christmas shopping and got it all wrapped! I enjoyed every minute with this sweet little baby. He talked, laughed, and smiled pretty much all weekend! I think he knew he had his mommy all to himself. Avery got to stay the night with his CC & Mumu, and Nana & Poppa. He wouldn't even talk to me on the phone all weekend cause he was having too much fun! I'm so glad he will go and do things like that! Here are some pics I got of Sutton last night during bath.

Sweet Dreams little man....

Brotherly LOVE

The boys had some good laughs tonight!

BUSTED!!

Avery thought it would be fun to try and balance toys on Sutton's head....of course, Sutton didn't care one bit. :)

This first one cracks me up because you don't get this look from him often...he's all serious looking!

Thanksgiving 2010

Thanksgiving was great. Lots of friends and family to spend it with. Sutton got to meet Amber for the first time. She went off to college in August and we haven't seen her since! We were so glad to be able to spend a lot of time with her.
