Caleb's Trick
We have a Santa that sits on our stair rail and every time Caleb comes downstairs, he points and says "ho ho" What a smart little guy!! It's fun to teach him tricks!! :)
Christmas 2011
We had a fun Christmas this year with 3 little ones!! They always make life exciting and it was so fun watching them open their presents and all the excitement that goes along with Christmas! I wish I would have gotten more pictures of the family that was visiting (Mark's family), but here is what I do have!!
Here is Lilly practicing her skiing skills with Mark, getting ready for her 1st big day of skiing (see below).
Christmas eve - the traditional unwrapping of matching pj's!!
Posing for the camera in the matching pj's. I think I took at least 5 pictures but never got them all looking at once!
Excited to put out milk and cookies for Santa!!
Excited and waiting at the bottom of the stairs on Christmas morning. They actually slept in until 7!!
Caleb ran right to his present made by Mark! He is always trying to sit in things, so this little rocking chair is made especially for his size! He loves getting into it and rocks away!
hmmm....what is in this stocking??
Lots of fun stocking stuffers!
Best toy of the year - Rapunzel (at least we got the biggest reaction!) Lilly was so excited when she opened this. Can you tell??
Not quite ready for skiing yet, but likes to pretend that he is!!
Hayden got a Leapster and is getting pretty good at understanding the games.
Luckily Uncle Ryan was there for the annual present of Legos!! Over 250 pieces and Hayden was pretty good at following all the instructions by himself.
Carving the ham for Christmas dinner - don't mess up Mark!
Even Lilly likes sitting in Caleb's rocking chair, although the 1st time, Caleb was a little possessive and came over and pulled Lilly's hair....I think he needs to start learning how to "share"!!!
Our little helpers. Now each child has a shovel just their size, perfect for helping to shovel! Even Caleb figured out what to do with it!
On Tuesday, Lilly got to go on her 1st skiing excursion with Hayden, Mark, Grandma and Grandpa. They said she did great!! Way to go Lilly!!

A Special Day for a 5 Year Old!
Today was Hayden's big #5 birthday! It was a special day. Mark took the day off and took him skiing. He had a great time and was proud to tell us that he went down the WHOLE bunny hill without dad holding onto him by the end of the day!
Skiers home from a long day!
We had Papa over for an early Christmas and Birthday celebration
Papa opened his presents with the kids. They were happy to help!
Caleb was introduced to the golf glove "claw"!
Hayden had opened all his presents at his birthday party, so tonight we opened a special present from Grandma and Papa great. Hayden's proud to be five!
