Our Christmas - 2009

We had a wonderful Christmas with our families this year! It was a special year for many reasons! It was Reid's first Christmas. Landon was finally old enough to open his own presents and understand what was happening a little more. The Thompsons were here to celebrate with us. It was a WHITE Christmas! And, of course, the main reason we were blessed this year is that we once again got to celebrate the birth of our Savior. Rather than tell you about ALL our Christmas celebrations (as there were several of them with different families) I'll just post a few of the many pictures that have been taken the last few days!

This was actually on the 21st. We were outside enjoying the "warmer" weather! Reid has recently started becoming a thumb-sucker!

PaPa and Grandma Meg drove in to see us and have Christmas on the 22nd! They took us for a yummy lunch at Carino's! We really enjoyed our time together! The three cousins at NiNi and G-Pa's house! We all stayed the night on the 23rd and woke up to have our Christmas with the Lott's and Thompson's on the 24th.
The two big boys had their own tent to sleep in that night! Santa brought Landon his very first pet, a betta fish we named Sushi. I know this just sounds wrong, but the main reason for the name is because when Landon says fishy, it comes out sounding more like "shishy." So, the closest thing to that we thought of was Sushi! Landon has always loved "shishies" and we thought he might enjoy having one of his own! We were right and thankfully he gave us a priceless expression that we caught on video! Is this not the cutest (and skinniest) big boy underwear model you've ever seen? Landon got his first pairs of big boy underwear for Christmas! Although we're not quite ready to start using them, I couldn't resist trying them on him!

Landon and Caedmon test driving Landon and Reid's new wagon! Thanks MiMi!

Today, Reid had his first veggie....Peas! YUM! As expected, at first he wasn't so sure about the taste, but he continued opening his mouth for the spoon, so I assume he was OK with them!
