Deb's Visit

The day after Julie flew out, Debbie flew in and the mini-vacation continued. If I could afford a nanny, I would so have one! The kids loved being doted on and I loved the extra time doing other fun things!Down town Denver's Mall area draped in lights.

We saw Santa!

and one of his reindeer!

Hanging out with Auntie Deb.

Off to Boulder to meet up with a friend of Debbie's. We went to the Boulder Dushanbe Teahouse and enjoyed a cup of tea before meeting up with her friend and heading to Pearl Street for some shopping!

Christmas Program

Mcayden did a great job in his preschool Christmas program. The kids filed into the room in a single line, rining their jingle bells. All the parents grabbed their cameras and camcorders and the program began! The songs were fun and the kids liked all the jumping, hand motions and bell ringing they invovled. Following the program, they had platters of every holiday cookie you could imagine (brought by all the families). Addison was in cookie heaven.

See the cute little girl in the red dress? That is one of Mcayden's favorite little friends. Her name is Emmy (Emerson) and they are "dinosaur friends" and most recently "reindeer friends". When we leave school they will say, "bye reindeer friend!"

"Look, it's me!!"

Jewels

Auntie Julie flew out for a visit last week. I am so thankful and blessed to have such wonderful sisters! It was so fun having Jewels here. The kids loved all the extra attention and I enjoyed the company and all the extra help! We didn't take many pictures, but here is a cute of of her and Mcayden. They had been snuggled up on the couch reading Frosty the Snowman.

Rudolph

Don't call him Mcayden. He's Rudolph. His nose glows (mmmmmmm) too.

It was the perfect day at preschool for Mcayden. They talked about reindeer and what they eat. For the last week or so, Mcayden has decided he is Rudolph and everytime he sees a picture of Rudolph he says, "Look it's a picture of me" or "I saw a picture of myself".

Today he said, "When I grow up, I can play reindeer games." and "When I grow up, I will pull Santa's sleigh". He loves the animated movie, the old one with the puppets/clay animation. He makes the "glowing sound" just like in the movie and will leap around yelling, "I'm cute! I'm cute!"

It has definately made this Christmas season full of laughs and smiles. Our little boy. I mean, Rudolph.
