Merry Christmas and Happy New Year

We had a great Christmas. Banks was so much fun now that he is a little older. He went right to bed Christmas Eve waiting for Santa Claus to come. We went to ZZ and Pop's house Christmas Eve and opened presents. They REALLY outdid themselves for all of us. One of Banks' favorite presents was this horse that he could ride! He got lots of Thomas the Train items. Thanks ZZ and Pop for everything!!

Another favorite were these cowboy pajamas!! Banks and Wyatt loved them along with their cowboy hats!!

Banks and Leigh...as you can tell he is loving her now! He has been such a big help!!

At Neise and Poppy's house...Banks got so many presents that we had to go back over there the day after Christmas to finish opening!! One thing that he did get on Christmas morning was a new bike!! Taylor has been working so hard teaching him how to pedal!!

Leigh was a real trooper through the whole day. She just went with the flow!

Taylor and I are so thankful for our two beautiful and healthy children. They are both truely the light of our eyes. I do not know how our Savior could have put his own son on the cross to die for us. That is amazing. Happy Birthday Jesus!!

Taylor and Banks went to meet ZZ, Pop, and Wyatt at Bass Pro Shop tonight so Leigh and I had a photo session! I was trying to get a picture with her eyes open. She is getting so big. The dress that she has on was mine when I was a baby! I am loving dressing her up! She is such a little princess (as her daddy calls her!) Banks is doing GREAT as a big brother. When she cries he tells me.."Mommy she needs a bottle!!" Last night we were all sitting in the den and he walked over to her and was talking to her as if she was going to answer him! It was really funny. Then this morning he was asking her how she slept last night. I promise that she does have a neck!!

Look at our little angle! She is so precious. She is already eating 4 ounces/feeding! Such a little pig!! I can't believe that she is already 2 weeks. I am loving staying at home with both kids. We are having so much fun.

ZZ and Pop bought Banks this GREAT train set. It come with lots more pieces (bridges, trees, stop signs, etc) but this is all I can handle right now. He LOVES Thomas the train.

This is just one of the Christmas card pictures that we took. After MANY photo sessions..we finally got one picture....check your mailboxes for the one we picked!! We hope that you all have a very Merry Christmas and Happy New Year.
