Christmas Chronicles!

We had such a great and busy time this Christmas season! Here are some fun pictures of some of our adventures.
We went to a cookie party for the kids. Besides the fact it was a little chaotic, we had a great time. By the way, nerds on cookies just evaporate in the oven!


This is Grant's new "thing!" Everytime I take a picture of him lately he closes his eyes. I am not sure why but it is pretty funny.

Helping "Mommy Toni" -that's what he has been calling me lately- wrap Christmas presents!

Too much excitement for one night; Grant conked out at the top of the stairs!

Here's my 30 week baby bump. People still don't realize I'm pregnant. I have had one person, just one, ask me if I was expecting. Oh, and do you love my super cute maternity jeans. My first pair. I finally gave. They are Rock and Republics and I got the best deal EVER, which is great because they are the most comfortable maternity jeans ever!
Arroz con gondulez minus the gondulez. Nathan and I went to 7 stores trying to find them with no such luck!
Pernil! More awesome Puerto Rican food. Our family tradition is to cook this way every Christmas. I absolutely love it and it turned out great!

Christmas morning!
Grant had a hard time getting enthusiastic about opening presents at first but he quickly got into the groove of things!

Eyes closed!
Eyes closed again!
Making sure his eyes are closed! Now Grant is all ready for our annual Jazz vs Suns game which takes place on the 25th. I can't wait! Maybe I will get to touch Steve Nash again!
More eye closing! He got a "Mack" -which he calls every semi-truck- from Grandma and Grandpa Southam and he just can't get enough of it! Thanks guys!
And this is proof that we are definitely turning into Wyomingites! This picture kind of makes me think of Dale Gribble from King of the Hill riding his lawn mower in his undies!

Overall we had a great Christmas. Nathan was allowed to come home for a few days which was awesome. We just hung out around the house and enjoyed each other's company, I am on break from school so it was extra awesome! On Christmas day we went and saw Sherlock Holmes and then Nathan left early this morning! Grant had so much fun with his daddy. He sure does love him. We miss him so much all the time. I can't wait to move to California and be a family again one day. Hopefully soon! Hope everyone had an awesome Christmas season and have a great up-coming New Year!

P.S. Logan comes home on Thursday!!!

What a fun Christmas. I love the falling asleep on the top of the stairs pics. We definitely have had a few of those. You are so tiny and cute prego. Can't wait to see pics of the new baby.
