Merry Christmas

We had a great Christmas. We spent several nights with jordan's parents and on Christmas day, went to my parents' house. We even got to spend some time with my grandmother. She drove all the way from macon all by herself to spend time with us!

Miles and mommy. Poor boy doesn't have any shoes on. So neglected!

Miles was very interested in the gifts. More specifically, he enjoyed playing with all the ribbon.

Practicing standing up. He's getting so big!

Logan enjoyed 'fishing' on Christmas eve. She stayed outside forever with her stick fishing pole.

And she's off!

Christmas Morning

Logan was pretty funny Christmas morning. She slept in the room with us. We thought she'd sleep in, but evidently she was more excited than we thought. She got up at about 6:45am and said something about santa being here. She walked over to our bed and we told her to get back in bed. That pretty much didn't work, so our plans of sleeping in were scratched. Her little face was so funny when we walked out into the family room. She saw her train table and was very excited. We decided not to wake Miles up. We didn't think he'd care too much. He was also pretty excited to see what Santa brought for him when he woke up.

This is one of my favorite pictures from Chrismas morning. All Logan wanted for Christmas was a sucker. Sometimes she'd add a candy cane, too. If you asked if she wanted a toy, she'd say, "No thank you. Just a sucker." This girl wanted NO TOYS! Of course, santa had to bring toys, but he also put suckers and candy canes in her stocking. Once she dug in her stocking, she had to take a break to eat one. In this picture she's double-fisting those suckers. She is crazy about suckers!

This was too funny! Miles wasn't exactly sure what he was doing, but he thought it was fun. Logan was a good sport and let him crawl all over her.

I have a feeling there is much more of this to come and it won't be as cordial!

Logan got twin cabbage patch baby dolls
and a tinkerbell dress-up outfit. She's not really quite sure what to think of it...

Logan loves to pick out her own outfits. Don't worry, we don't leave the house like this (often.) =)

Miles was enjoying watching big sister's shenanigans.

This is what Miles was watching. Logan was having a blast sliding and running down this little hill in my parents' yard.

She is a wild girl.

pre-Christmas activities

So, it's been a little while since I last posted. I do have an excuse! I left the cable for the camera at my parents' house, so I didn't have a way to upload pictures. Never fear (mom), I have the cable back and we're in business.

We went to the tree farm we usually go to to get our tree. We left empty-handed; all of their trees were pitiful. We did, however, get a free hayride! Logan thought it was great. We actually ended up getting our tree at lowes. Blasphemy, I know.

Isn't this a fabulous-looking Santa? I think he is one of the best ones I've ever seen. Both kids sat happily on his lap. Well, Miles got a little bit upset once he realized that I was in front of him and not holding him.

A rare family photo. We need to get better about taking pictures together. Logan is thoroughly enjoying her hot chocolate.
