The Hectic Holiday Hustle!

SNOW!!!! well just a little anyway.
Rising and shining on christmas morning (okay maybe only the kids were shiny). James and i were probably just slouchy.
Getting dad cuddles.
One of Eden's favorite gifts was this tooth brush. However, I know she won't always find something so practical magical, and I am trying to enjoy it now!
James laughing at Eden. He had to take her "tate" (or cake for those not fluent in eden), away because it wasn't cooked all the way through. It was actually just a cinnamon roll, but she was convinced it was cake and was so upset she cried and then picked her nose to cope. When asked if she wanted some sausage she replied "Uh-uh, i ee tate!"
Unwrapping presents is a new experience for Eden. But she took to it like ants to candy. The other day I was holding Deacon on my lap, and she came up with this baby doll jabbering away about something. She began tugging at my shirt, and so I listened a little closer. She was saying "babee nee mulk, mommy!" and then she tried to pull up my shirt, because obviously feeding babies is my job. I told her "no thanks", so she says "oh (nods her head), I doodit!" and then she sat down pulled up her shirt and put her dolly's face to her tummy, and says "Eden, mulk?"

Playing princess mommies with her cousin Audrey.
Aunt Britt with Deacon.
A pile of keys....
For a pile of kids.


Sophie Grace with Deacon. He is flirting with aunt Leah (which he did all weekend). Sophia was very proud, and good, at holding her big baby cousin. Any time one of the babies was left by an adult, she made sure they had company.
The crew.
The captain.
yay! what a fun christmas! "show your teeth if you had a good time!"
