Christmas Card

Merry Christmas

XOXO



Santa #2

So while we were in CA we went and saw Santa!  Since Nick already saw Santa and got pics, we decided we should do the cousins!  Mia had bought the boys matching outfits so we took Aiden and Nick and they turned out sooo cute!  We just split a package (and I need to scan that one in) but they let us take a ton of pics with our phones and regular cameras too!

Cousins

This Santa was AWESOME!  He was so nice

The St. Nick's :)

Aunt Janette jumped in with the boys
(we think she planned this the whole time....her outfit matches!!)

Meeting Baby Aiden

So I could not wait to get to CA....my nephew was due the day we were flying in but he decided he wanted to come early....so I was soooo anxious to get there and hold him!  He is the most perfect precious little boy!  I couldn't be happier for my sister and brother-in-law!!  It was nice to get some pics of the boy cousins too!

Christmas #1

Since Nick and I are leaving in a few days for CA, we did Christmas with Kris' dads family today!!  Can I just say how much they spoil us :)  We arrived with our "Little St. Nick" and were immediately greeted by his favorite fans aka his cousins!!  I am seriously so lucky to have such a great family of in-laws!!

(I forgot my camera so here are a few from my phone)

Opening his 1st gift

Auntie Jill and the kids just spoil him!

This kid just cracks me up!  The floor was seriously covered in gifts and what does he want to do....sit in the box and play with the trash lol 

I didn't take a pic of him with all his gifts so I will make sure I do that tomorrow when he gets up!

Kris and I also made out quite nicely too! 

So THANK YOU Bob and Betty for a WONDERFUL day! :)

I'm an AUNT!!!

8lbs 5 oz and 20 1/2 in

My sister Mia and her husband Bill had their first baby....a perfect little BOY!  They had wanted the sex to be a surprise so I (we) have all been waiting impatiently on the babies arrival...luckily he arrived a little early (but already full term!) so I can't wait to get to CA and get my hands on him!! :)

Growing Up.....

Ten Months

Weight: 17.2lbs

Height: 28in

My boy loves his trucks and cars!

He does NOT sit still.....EVER!!!

How do I describe Nick at 10 months.....ACTIVE!!!  I can't even explain how HARD it is to get pics of him anymore...especially his monthly ones in this outfit!  These were the best I could do out of the millions I took! lol  He has been on the go for months now and has been taking more and more steps each day on his own and I expect he will be a full time walker any day now!!  I would say his first word was "CAT" haha

(go figure..we have 3) and he is definitely starting to pick up on things we say!  His laugh is by far the cutest thing I have ever heard and has changed so much!  He now has FOUR top teeth...his "I" teeth came in....and although I hear horror stories from other Moms...Nick was a champ and did great!  He always slept through the night and never fussed :)  And still only has 2 on the bottom.  He loves being read to and I have to admit its one of my favorite things to do with him!

He is the best little boy..what more can I say :)

Santa.....meet Nick :)

Last night we took our little man to see Santa for the FIRST time!!!  I loved the setup they have at Bass Pro so I told Kris that is where we were going!!!  Nick didn't cry at all!  He just kinda starred at him....for a bit....then they were BFF!  (of course he smiled AFTER they took the photo lol)

(I added the border lol)

This is definitely going to the BEST Christmas EVER!!!  We just <3 our Little St. Nick! :)
