First Christmas

Nayeli was so adorable on Christmas. I woke her up in the morning so we could all have breakfast and open presents together and she didn't quite know what to think about being pulled from her slumber. She LOVED the chocolate chip pancakes that were waiting for her at the table. Then I got her cleaned up and dressed. She was so excited over all the gifts being opened and did a pretty good job her self. She may just be a pro by her birthday. On Christmas we opened all the presents Grandpa and Grandma Puetz sent. Austin got a tool bench, a racecar thingy-ma-bob, and a hotwheels car and truck. He loved it all. Nayeli got a little car/walker thing for her. It's Pooh brand and is pretty loud. She also got a new dolly... We named it Leah. Last but not least she got a bug that has shapes, songs and games. From the picture you get an idea of her excitement throughout the day. It was wonderful to have her and Austin playing with their toys and giggling and even sort of fighting over who got to play with what. I loved it... but don't I always. :-)



We're going to be celebrating Christmas some more with Jeremy's parents on Monday. :-)

MERRY CHRISTMAS!!!

Austin told me what all of these were. (I'm just not sure about the tree creatures one because it was a while ago.) :-D

Tastes Like Chicken!

Tonight I made ground beef steak with gravy over rice and coaxed Austin into trying it. He said, "Mmm, that's good. It tastes like chicken!?" Lol. I had used chicken bouillon instead of the beef kind... so maybe that was it. It was adorable either way!!

My Sweet Princess

*Adoring Sigh* My daughter...

I have been sorting through outgrown/not grown into yet clothes tonight in the kids room, for hopes it is B.e.a.u.t.i.f.u.l. when Jeremy's parents come for Christmas. Austin has been playing with toys and watching the Santa Clause 2 on ABC Family's "The 25 Days of Christmas" and Nayeli has been crawling around, playing with toys and trying to throw all of my work around the room. :-) :-P

Well, she found her dolly Lucy and I was about my own business when I looked over at her and saw her cradling baby Lucy, rocking back and forth, just gazing at her.

It was SOooo precious!! It's crazy to me to think a baby who's not even one can be like that with a little thing that looks like a baby. Girls ARE different from boys!! :-)

I love my kids!!
