Haircut for Lilyana

Making Cookies

We made cookies all day long and the kids loved it! Lilyana stayed in the kitchen the entire day baking with Mommy. She wouldn't even take a nap because she didn't want to miss anything. Gavyn sat in his high chair and watched us for almost two hours with no complaining! Fun times, Lilyana decided to cover her entire self with flour including her eyes! We made quite the mess that day but was such a great time!

Breakfast at the Pfister Hotel

A tradition 3 years running is having breakfast with Santa at the Pfister with Grandma, the girls, and the grandchildren. It is a wonderful time. Lilyana did not want Santa to be there but after she got a gift from him she got so excited and ran up and gave him a big hug. I was so proud of her. Her first picture with Santa finally! Gavyn of course was perfect as usual. Smiled not caring who was holding him. Thanks Mom for the wonderful tradition!!

Our Gingerbread House

Saint Nick

Saint Nick came by the house early December. We were trying to prep Lilyana by telling her Saint Nick comes to the house at night when we were sleeping and fills our stockings with little gifts. Well...not a good idea, the poor girl was so frightened that "Nick" was coming in our house she didn't want to sleep. She continued to peek out the window in a frightened voice asking if Nick was here yet. She finally feel asleep and was so excited to see the stockings the next morning. Gavyn is just happy no matter what he is doing so he enjoyed it as well.

Kid's Tree

Lilyana decorated the tree all by herself and loved being such a big girl doing it on her own while Mommy, Daddy, and Gavyn watched her. She was so proud.
