December pictures

I am so far behind! We did a few fun things before we left for Utah. We actually put up a Christmas tree for the first time since we've been out here. Ava kept asking about a tree from all the Christmas shows she was watching, so Eric went out and got one. She was so excited to help decorate it. We made sugar cookies, read Christmas books, and put up a few decorations. It just keeps getting better as Ava gets older!

We were all sick about a week before we left. Ava only wanted to cuddle with daddy.


We got together at Afton's house to make Christmas crafts and cupcakes!


Eric took Ava to the Home Depot craft thing with Cam and Carolyne. He said she had lots of fun making her wagon!
Our little tree! Ava was so good at helping decorate it.

Dresden was good at eating them.

They loved just sitting there watching the train.


Our little climber! He loves to go up the stairs. And when we go get him he just laughs!
Reading Christmas stories! My mom always gives up plenty of books for Christmas every year.

I just like this one!

We were worried about everything fitting so we decided to give Ava one of her presents early. A hello kitty radio/cd player. She loves music and sometimes it's just too quite at home. We asked her what song she wanted and of course she said "puh puh". Which is Lady Gaga Poker face. She is so funny. She likes that puh puh puh poker face part.


Dancing!!

Making yummy sugar cookies! She saw that random apron in the Christmas box and wanted to wear it!
Dresden climbed in the bag when I was packing. He was kinda stuck so he wasn't too happy!
