It's Christmas Day!

You were so excited for today to arrive. You visited Santa about a week before Christmas and loved sitting on his lap and telling him about the cars that you wanted him to bring. You talked a lot about Christmas Day and about Santa and his reindeer coming. This is the first year that I think you really started to understand about Christmas and what was going to happen. You couldn't wait to open presents and eat cookies! You got so many toys, so many!!! Grandpa and Grandma got you a DVD player for the car and out and about, along with your own toy mp3 player and cell phone! You got lots of books (you love to have me read to you) too! At Papa and Grammy's you got a new motorized Jeep. Since it was so big, it was actually at home. From Santa you got lots of Thomas the Tank Engine tracks and engines, some Diego toys and of course the Cars toys that you asked Santa for! You opened more presents and got more toys today than you know what to do with! But I know that you will love playing with them all! Merry Christmas Day to you!

Hello???

It sure has been awhile since I have posted anything on your blog! Well I guess that is because we have been pretty busy since your brother Ben was born. At first you were not too happy with having to share me with Ben and I think you were a little jealous. But the last couple weeks you have seemed to adjusted and just the other day you said, "I love you Benny." You almost always call Ben, Benny (which I think is so cute). You like to help me change his diapers sometimes and you really like to help me give him a bath. But the thing you are best at is making sure he has his pacifier when he is fussy! You like having me home with you all the time, but I know that you miss your Grammy too. You and I have been getting ready for Christmas, doing lots of shopping and once a week you and I have a Christmas craft playgroup we go to. You are so cute these days with the things that you say. You must listen really well to what your Dad and I say, because you repeat them at the funniest times. Today, we were shopping and I was getting your and Ben off the stroller and into the car, I got Ben into the car and you were messing around on the stroller and almost tipped it over. I started to yell and you and said, "what are you doing?" and you came back with, "Mommy, I crazy!" Oh, you just had me laughing so hard and I couldn't even think about yelling at you anymore! You really make me laugh a lot with the things you do and say! You are so full of energy and it's so much fun to watch you!
