Christmas #3

On Christmas night, we went to my Grandma D and Grandpa Carl's house for more presents and dinner. We had some traditional Swedish dishes like Swedish meatballs, rice pudding, lutefisk, and pickled herring.

All he wanted to do what climb up and down the stairs, and we had him surrounded in the living room. He kept walking around trying to find a way out.



He thought Jake's toys were pretty cool

Christmas Morning!

Well like usual, Bryce was up at 6:00 am so we celebrated Christmas morning early! He was very excited about all his new toys and actually opened presents this year!




Looking a little sleepy



He loved his new tools
 

And his new book

Playing a game with Mommy
 
There's some excitement


Mamaw and Papa came to visit us on Christmas morning

So excited!

Our little growing family

Christmas Eve at Aunt Diane's

We spent Christmas Eve in Billtown at Aunt Diane's house. It was a nice evening with lots of food, lots of people, lots of new toys, and lots of fun! Sadly, with all the fun and craziness, I only got a few pictures from the night.

Christmas #1

We had our first Christmas celebration on December 22 with Nannie, Grandpa Ed, Grandma Jane, Uncle Brett, Aunt Jo, Hayden, and Izzy. We enjoyed Brett and Jo's newly remodeled basement. Nannie is the queen of Christmas and definitely spoils her grand kids.

Waiting so patiently to open their presents


 
I'll just go ahead and help you Izzy

Oh no you don't

Uh, can somebody get him?

Okay I'll help Hayden instead


So excited about his barn and tractors!


Okay Uncle Brett can you get this open for me?

His new ride along plane. Complete with lights, moving propeller, and fold able wings

And then this is where he sat for about 20 minutes and did not move


And then this happened: He was running to daddy on the couch and ran right into the wall behind the couch. He hit his head on the trim right on his eyebrow.

It was pretty traumatic, especially for mommy and daddy


Okay you're good, let's take family pictures

What a group!

And the kids are done!

Oh Uncle Brett!


Nannie and her silly boys!

Finally a good one


Sunday School Christmas Program

On December 22, we had our Sunday School Christmas program. It snowed six inches the night before, so there wasn't alot of people in attendance, but mom pulled off a super cute program called, "Sound the Bells." Bryce came up at the end of the program and rang jingle bells. He did such a good job. We were very proud!



 






 What a big boy!
