Christmas Festivities

Christmas seemed to go by like a tornado! We spent Christmas eve with my family. It was so much fun watching Brinley open her presents with her cousin, Reese. She was a pro at unwrapping her presents (and Clayton's too!) She took all his presents over to him to show him. It was too cute! Her favorite presents from mamaw and pop's house was a keyboard with microphone, which she has to sing on at least 3 times a day and a wow wow wubzy dancing doll. She loves dancing with him and really shakes her booty with it.....we are in trouble! She also loved her box of dress up clothes!




We woke up Christmas morning with Brinley asking if ho ho came (this is what she calls Santa). She ran into the room and saw her new jump (bouncy house) and doll house. She spent all morning jumping and playing with her new doll house. We then went to Jason's family's house for dinner. Highlights of that present opening was her big wheel (which still hasn't come out of the box) and Elmo toy. It was really special to view Christmas through Brinley's eyes this year. She really enjoyed every part of it. I remembered that excitement and all the magic I felt as a child.


We came home exhausted and have spent the past few days relaxing at home! Jason and I celebrated our 5 year anniversary yesterday at home....after we remembered at about 4pm!!! Oh well, it has been a crazy week! I can't believe it has been 5 years already! Time flies when you are loving life!
Clayton is 9 days old and such a good baby! He rarely cries and I have to wake him up in the middle of the night to feed him! I think we are going to have another thumb sucker on our hands. He has already found his thumb and gets it in his mouth all by himself...it took Brinley until she was 3 months old to get it in her mouth herself!!! This is a picture of him sucking his finger...the thumb one was too blurry!
