Christmas Take 1- Twas the night before Christmas...

Every year on Christmas Eve for as long as I can remember we go to my Grandparents house and this year was no different! Its always a big group and a fun time. Davis was starting to get sick so he was a little out of sorts but after opening a present he was set to go with his new ambulance to play with. We had a yummy dinner of prime rib that was melt in your mouth good. Up next was the presents!!

he had present opening down pat! Love this sweet boy!

Playing cars with cousin Thomas

It was hard to take pictures because I was helping d open all his presents, but my Uncle Mark was snapping away so hopefully I will have some more pics from our Christmas Eve festivities! D was spoiled rotten with gift galore. Including: Matchbox cars, Race track, a pop up Thomas the Train tent, some more cars, and books. it was so funny to see everyone in the room with all eyes on Davis, he is definitely the life of the party. His cousin Thomas was so good with playing with him and Davis thinks he hung the moon. Pulling him in every direction and tackling him whenever Thomas sat down on the floor. He's so lucky to have so many people around him that love him
We had a wonderful night and headed home to put the boy to bed and play Santa. It was so fun setting everything up for Davis to see the next morning. He's getting to such a fun age!

Christmas in Savannah

The weekend before Christmas we packed up in my new "truck"(thanks to my wonderful hubby I got an early Christmas present in the form of a tahoe!) and headed to Savannah to celebrate Christmas with Garys parents, sister and her family. We had a wonderful time full of amazing food and fun excursions. Davis loved all the attention and hammed it up all weekend.

Being so silly!

Davis loved playing with his twin cousins Jessie and Kendall all weekend. They were so good with him! This is Jessie and D playing chase in the kitchen before dinner

And then my camera decided it was tired and didnt want to work anymore! Boo hiss! Davis was given some wonderful gifts including 4 new pairs of shoes, books, balls, stuffed animals and other fun stuff. He is such a blessed little boy! We headed home Sunday after church and breakfast. A stop at the outlet mall and two melt downs later we pulled safely into home sweet home. What is it about the last hour of a drive that makes children loose their mind??? I mean really! He was throwing toys, kicking and screaming. I had to get in the back seat and have a little "come to Jesus" meeting with him. Lord help me with this little fire cracker! Merry Christmas all!! Stay tuned...three more Christmas's coming!!!

Christmas Program

Davis had his first Christmas Program at school a few weeks ago. I was a little anxious on how well a bunch of not even two year olds and two year olds would do standing on a stage singing while all their family were out in the audience staring at them. It was quite the show! Ha

                                                                      Davis stood on stage with his hands covering his ears...Such a silly boy! We were all dying laughing

Ethan, Tucker, Jack, and Davis all sitting so nicely ...it didnt last long

he just kind of stood there the whole time and looked around confused..ha

hey boy!

Sweet jack 

about half way through mommy had to put down the camera and go put D back on stage... we were spotted in the crowd and thats all it took for him to loose it a little. But he regrouped and finished out the performance :)we had all but two of the grandparents there with us so I was thrilled that he even made it five seconds on the stage with all his favorite people in the crowd

Nothing a little "Ba"(paci) cant fix. Hey you do what ya gotta do! Poor Jack was over it at this point too and had spotted mommy and daddy

After the performance they had a sweet little reception for the parents and the littles, Davis thoroughly enjoyed his "teet" (treat)

Mommy and D

All in all it was crazy but oh so precious at the same time. I was so proud of our boy :)I can't believe he is old enough to be having a Christmas program!? I know I say it all the time but I feel like I just had a sweet little newborn sleeping on my chest, where o where has the time gone sweet little one...
