More Christmas Season

There is a wonderful Spouses Association that I'm a part of with the MBA program here at BYU. We did a quiet book swap where everyone made 8 pages that were all the same and then we traded. This is the page I did. I thought they turned our pretty good. Now I just need to put all the pages together!




There is a tradition that we have picked up where the kids leave their shoes outsidetheir door to see if they have been good. If so, St. Nick leave special treats for them. Jackson and Kaitlyn were very excited to see their shoes full of fun things.




One day we made sugar cookies and the kids had a blast rolling out the dough and then frosting the cookies.


They went a little crazy with the sprinkles, as in Jackson would sprinkle his cookie then take a bite, sprinkle some more, then take another bite, etc. But it was a lot of fun to watch them.

My favorite part of the season this this year was watching my kids with Baby Jesus. We couldn't usually find him because he was being carried around the house by someone constantly.



We actually got a family picture by the tree, although you can't see the tree! It took a few shots, but this one finally turned out with all of us looking.


Then we wanted to get the two kids, but Kaitlyn was pretty mad about something. I'm sure that grin of Jackson's has nothing to do with his sister's bad mood!


Yeah, they were both being pretty goofy. But sometimes thats what makes the best pictures.

And finally a shot of my belly that is growing bigger every day. I believe I was about 31 1/2 weeks here. Now I'm 34 weeks. Only 6 weeks left. Where has the time gone?
