{Randomness} December

Our December Randonmess! 
There isn't as much as most months; I guess most stuff this month was worthy of a full post!
December 6, 2012- Playing together with the Nativity Set. Ahh so sweet. If only this lasted forever!
December 11, 2012 - My helper with dishes. Every time he notices the dishwasher door is down, he  makes a mad dash over. He loves to grab whatever is in the silverware section....and of course, it's usually dirty. I'm pretty sure that when he's old enough to help, there will be NO interest!

December 11, 2012 - Katelyn's class made gingerbread cookies at school after reading the book. They were supposed to decorate their gingerbread man at school, but they ran out of time because they were looking all over the school for the gingerbread man that got away. The teachers hid clues in different rooms at the school and they had to find out where he went. They finally found him in Ms. Bobbie's office, the director. Katelyn was so excited to tell us about the story and how the gingerbread man got away.

December 30, 2012 - Using her bath tub crayons she got in her stocking. She knows how to spell and write her name without any help. She also wrote Will and Mommy above her name.

Christmas in Missouri!


There was plenty of cousin time this trip and both girls seemed to have a blast! Now Katelyn is spoiled with having someone to play with for the last 2 weeks and won't stop asking me to play with her. Guess some of the housework will just have to wait!

Reindeers!

Will and David having a little discussion!

Time to open presents!! And Katelyn got the doll house she asked Santa for....she was so excited!

Looking at all the fun they are going to have!

They got Doc McStuffin's doctor bags and.....

Doctor jackets! Dr. Katelyn Johannes at your service!

2 cute doctors ready to fix your ailments!

And then there was Will, loving ALL the wrapping paper!

Where's Will?!

He actually got into opening a little more. I guess by the 3rd Christmas he figured out what he was supposed to do. He even started crawling over to other people's packages and trying to rip them open.

Go Will Go!

Having fun with their Barbie DreamHouse! I think the elevator was probably the biggest hit of the house.


We got together with 3 of Jack's High school friends and their families on Friday afternoon. Boy how times have changed!! As Jack said, next time we're going to have to rent a gym out to get together! It was so fun to see and meet all the kiddos! We aren't outnumbered by kids.....yet! 6 kids under the age of 3.5! Ahh the chaos and trouble they will be getting into all too soon. It was so much fun to catch up with old friends; I just wish we could do it more often. It is difficult when one couple lives in FL, another in AZ and then wherever we are at the time.



And there is ALWAYS time for dress up!

Of course we had to get a little swimming time in too!
And then we got MORE snow on Friday night and into Saturday. It was the prettiest snow; especially since we didn't have anywhere really to go. We probably got another 3 inches or so. The trees just looked absolutely beautiful!


Even Will liked the Barbie Dream House!

The girls had to give us several "Shows" too. They were pretty hilarious but the 2 songs from the microphone got REEAALLLY old! 


Here's a few videos from our many "shows" we got.....



We went over to Jack's cousin Donna's house for an extended family Christmas. Here are the kids before leaving. Will and David could be models for the Carter's Christmas line. :)

And Grammie got LOTSSS of check ups and blood pressure checks....most of the time 2 checks at the same time!

Just look at this beautifulness! 
What a way to end our Christmas holiday!
