christmas..

We had such a great (and busy) Christmas. This was Brenna's first Christmas and we had so much fun with her. She did pretty well with all the craziness and the parties.
We spend Christmas Eve with the Wentworth's where dessert is always fondue :) Here's a couple of pics...

Christmas morning...

Just before we headed to the Rosser's, we opened gifts as a family. Santa brought Brenna an Elmo, and a few other things. Here she is getting aquainted with him.

Here's Gma and Gpa R with all the grandkids! We are so excited that the Arbuckle's could come out this year. We've loved having them!!

playing Hungry Hippos with Grandma and Hal

Brett trying to eat his way through a jello mold to get to his gift. Clever Jase :)

Jase got a pink shirt with a BYU tie attached. He didn't find it funny.

B got a walker that she absolutely loves.....and yes I know my kid looks like Mrs. Clause. Don't judge.

After my family's house, we go to Ross' to open more gifts.

What a great year it has been. We are truly blessed. Now we're looking forward to Brenna's 1 year birthday!!

merry christmas...

love,

Brenna

warm legs....

I put Brenna's babylegs on her tonite, cause I was sick of taking her pants on and off when I changed her. She loved them :) And yes, her hair is in a pony.

Digging in her toy bag

She looks so big in this one...

What a pose!

snow

Brenna LOVES the snow. She stands at our front door and stares out wishing she could play in it.

Trying to push the door open

This was after our ward Christmas party. She was going crazy with the snow falling all around.

11 months

I just can't believe she's almost a year old! It has gone by so fast.

Love you Brenna.

two kids.....

Like I could ever have a second kid. Turns out I was right.
I got to babysit my nephew Cole on Tuesday and Thursday all day. Actually Cole did very well, Brenna on the other hand.....

We had fun and it was fun to watch them play together. But I got nothing done. In some of the pictures you will notice that I am still wearing my PJ's :) At least I got a quick shower. But look how happy they are. They would fight over toys and Brenna would swat at Coley's head....ah, good times.

This kid is a snuggler and I love it! I think Brenna got jealous because now she gives me a lot more loves. Look at this face

Love this one.

Ah, bottle time. A few moments of quiet.
Here's to all you mothers out there with more than one kid. I don't know how you do it...seriously.

golfer

Ross' dad got him a new golf club the other day, the one he's been wanting forever. He gave it to Brenna to play with :)....daddies.
She loved it!! She was giggling and screaming and waving it around. It was pretty funny.

She kept saying "ba" and then eating it.
Maybe we have a future golfer? Daddy would love that.
