Dreamy December

December is going by like a flash... My boys are now almost 2.5 and 10 months old. I always have a dream of actually ENJOYING December, and ya know what? We've actually been doing that! So here are a bunch of pictures... and a few words. 

New Bible for Kids app - so cute, so fun

Little People Nativity - resisting the urge to place them all back where they're "supposed to be", but at least I convinced Jack to put Mary by Jesus - so he wouldn't miss his mommy. 

Bathtime fun - can't believe they're finally at an age where bathtime is fun together!

Ringing the bell!! - this sweet Salvation Army volunteer let Jack ring the bell! He was SO PUMPED!

Shopping with mom - in matching jackets 

Rock City Enchanted Garden of Lights - We'd only been there 10 minutes and Jack stepped into a creek and soaked his left shoe and halfway up his jeans. Poor thing refused to walk, so Jason carried him through the whole thing! We still had a lot of fun - just had a funny story to remember too!

Sweet boy excited about all things Christmas

Decorating a gingerbread house!

Happy Birthday Jesus party!!

Daddy couldn't wait to give Jack his puzzle - early Christmas!

Intentional learning activities - I'm trying to work on some skills like pouring with Jack. He had so much fun doing this! Hence the tongue sticking out. 

Christmas tree and some of our MANY Christmas cards!

Miller-man cheesin' it up!

Oooh pretty tree!

Make your own Green Cleaning Party!

Sunday School party - Rachel, Debra, me and Becca. Photobomb courtesy of Jon. 

Nick turned 16!!!!! Cannot believe he is that old! And TALL!!

Moving the boys into the "Big Boy Room" 

Miller pulled up to standing for the first time! Trying to be like big brother...

MOPS fun with my girls!

Love our Advent calendar, but sweet Jack doesn't understand why we only get to do 1 day at a time. (Notice Jesus is already "borned".)

Everyday moments. :)

Christmas jammies!

Jack's first dentist appointment!

Little rascal keeping me up - but then he says "mama" and I melt. I'm in trouble with this one!

Welcome to Moe's! 

And this brings us up to date. It has been such a sweet month. I tried so hard to pre-plan this year, and I think it has paid off! 

One week until Christmas!
