Xavier sure had fun going to the Tree farm with Grandpa and Grandma Beougher to pick out the Chirstmas tree for there house. Grandpa brought the truck and we got to ride on the tailgate out the the tree and then Xavier "helped" Grandpa saw the tree down and the we Grandpa cut a few of the low branches off we didn't need but Xavier insisted that we needed them so he picked his own Charlie Brown chirstmas tree. It was super cute!
The Biggest event of our Holdiay season was the Big Family Trip to Ohio to see all our Family! Not going to lie the car ride with these two got a little long but we managed it and it and I'm sure we will do it again but next time it will be easier when we don't have such a fussy baby due to getting some More teeth when we left she only had two and by the time we returned home she had 3 and is working on more. The thing about that is when a tooth is going to pop she has horrible blow out diapers Thankfully we only got one out of the 26 hours we were in the car. The Candy can is a snap of the kids Chirstmas Eve PJ's a Family tradition I started with Xavier last year and I got lucky this year and was able to find matching PJ's for the two.
He a picture of teh gifts we got on Chirstmas Eve with the Whole Big family I think we had 30 bodies at Great Aunt Carol's house that night and what a releif it was to have them gone...It was a bit late and we almost didn't get to sleep and Santa almost didn't get to stop! But we did get to sleep and so he did deleiver, as you can see in the picture of our Cousin, gitfs and Us on Christmas Morning.
Owyn Created her own way of opening gifts by putting her two teeth to work and chewing threw the wrapping paper. and Here a shot of Xavier and how he must of been a good boy this year as this was is delievery from Santa, I think it shocked him how well he'ed been to get som many gifts from Santa!
After all that work the kids were a bit wore out but Xavier was still ready to play with Garrett and Gavin as they were his Buddies for the week, He still is talking about them and just yesterday asked if we could go to their house for the day......Daddy's response was call and ask them to come visit you.
And topping out the trip Christmas day at Great Grandma's house Owyn pulled out a few of her own tricks.
She started pulling up to her knee's! And then the picture of her smiling at her good doing. Great Grandma was truely amazed at the two of them and was so glad that we were able to come and celebrate the Holidays with her! It was good seeing her and watching the kids light up her week!
And now for a quick update into our life happening for the 2012 year! Andrew stated school again today as well as his first real day at his intership with Sauer Danfoss....So a busy semester for him ahead as he plans on Graduating Dec 2012!!!! Which we are so looking forward too! As for me I have decided to change gears with schooling as the Early Childhood classes aren't working for me to take at a time outside of doing the daycare and I will be taking a CNA class on Saturdays and am really think of taking it further and getting a nursing degree like LPN or RN but not totally commited to that plan for now I just need to have a back up plan for the daycare as I don't know were things are going and how many more years doing Daycare is going to work, but would like to keep doing it for at least a few more years but will feel better if I have a back up plan in case things don't work out the way I would like for them to. Xaiver is still working on the potty thing and I think this is totally an ongoing process and most days are good but then we just have some not so great days too. We enrolled him into a Tumbling Class Starting this coming Saturday and will go unitl April...I think he will really enjoy this as he been preety crazy lately. As for Owyn she is going GROWING so fast I can't believe that she is already 7 months old! It crazy to me, it feel like just yesterday we were on the way home from the hospital and I was a new Mommy of two and now it just seems so right that I have my X and O. Opps back to Owyn she got 3 teeth total now she is rocking on all fours and so close to crawling but can't figure out how to move them to take off....She does get around well by rolling and spinning herself in circle to get to what she wants and has pulled Xavier's play grill over on herself several times now. She is doing preety well since being back from Ohio with a schedule and was sleep through the night again til this past weekend! She is totally getting into eating and I think will have no problem with table food once we unleash her from baby food. She is now holding her bottle when she drink and doing prety good with the sippy cup. I will try to be back more often to add picutes and what's happening but I know this semester is going to be a bit crazy in our life and busy so not making any promises.
