Christmas Part 2

Between our Christmas Eve festivities Cody and I put together this gingerbread house.  You can see Cody's perfectionism at work!


Christmas Morning.  Conner found some treats in his stocking.  We should have saved the stocking for last because he was not interested in anything else after her found his treats.



I was telling the truth when I said Conner was getting a wrapped box for Christmas!  It was a hit as expected.

Christmas at Grandma's

Cody got a flying Helicopter!  His favorite gift... but it only lasted one day...

It's a tradition to wear the clothing you received for Christmas for the rest of the day.  Dad is sporting his new sweater and his new bike shorts.

My happy happy boy at grandma's Christmas Night.

By this time he was a pro at unwrapping!

Here are the pictures I took of Conner on his nine month birthday... You will notice I had a hard time getting him to hold still long enough

This picture is from Christmas Eve... Silly boy. 


The aftermath of Christmas


We played the Candy Bar/Gift Card game with my family after breakfast.  Everyone was a winner!


Conner and Wyatt.   Wyatt thinks his cousin is crazy "Why can't you just sit still like me?"

Cute boys

How many Cheerio's and bananas can you fit in YOUR mouth? 







  • Conner loves to run around the house and chase mom or dad.  
  • He thinks it is so funny to scare dad
  • He has discovered his tongue and likes to make cute noises with it
  • He is good at sharing.  He takes my glasses of and gives them right back to me.
  • We recently tried Mandarin oranges... he cannot eat them fast enough
  • He plays in his room by himself really well... he has started to explore though, army crawling into every room, even down to the kitchen to find me.

A little out of order again.  Christmas Eve at Great Oma and Opa's.  Conner almost pulled the Christmas tree down a couple times.

Dad and Brooke's performance was awesome!


Cody and I hit it up Ice Racing redneck  style with Shane, Payton, and Devin

Crawling in the bathtub, not the greatest idea but he had fun trying.

Playing with Daddy... He is the BEST!

This cutie knows how to take all the wipes out.  Great entertainment!

I love this picture!  Remember this little boy... just 3 days old!

We took family pictures in December.  Love my family!

After pictures we ate at Teppanyaki.  Our table was perfect!  Righting next to this awesome mirror.

My phone doesn't take as good of pictures are I thought I did!  We finally met Lyla!  She is a doll. 

First Christmas present from Brandy, his babysitter

Conner likes to hide and play under beds

Conner and Opa at our New Years Eve Party!

We did some ice skating new years day

That tongue!  Loves playing in the blinds.

Trying on his wooden shoes.  I bet they fit perfect next year
