Christmas fun

Christmas was so much fun this year with Cian and most of my family in town. As always the holidays went by too fast. So much anticipation, planning for a couple of days. I miss my family already!


Last year was our first year in the house and I was pregnant, so I didn't decorate very much. This year, I went a little overboard, buying new things and experimenting...
Our stairwell. I broke down and bought fake garland since the real stuff is too messy. 


Our gigantic tree and stockings. Got Brian to buy a 9ft tree!

The dining room had a bright, Dr Seuss feel to it

One of the fun prints I made for the kitchen. 


Cian's favorite decoration - the mistletoe. He would sit underneath it
and wait for Brian to pick him up so he could grab it. The cats also tried
to jump off the stairs to get it to. Not very smart. 
Out back I put lights on one of the trees. It was awesome!

Now for some pictures about the actual holiday instead of my awesome decorating....

Aunt Leslie must be visiting if 10 month old Cian is eating a cookie!

Josie and Wilbur showing Cian how to put out the reindeer food

Leslie reading Josie Christmas stories. How cute!

And you know when Josh is in your house when you open your very
organized spice cabinet to find all of your spices on the top shelf, out of reach. 

Christmas Morning! So much fun to see toys under our tree : )

Cian loving his activity table

The men and their Christmas lounge pants

Christmas morning spread YUMMY

Leslie enjoying the yule log on tv
Everyone gathered around the tree Christmas morning
Leslie's boba fett rob from Josh. Its a star wars thing..
Brian and his new ice scraper- its another star wars thing...

The only way Wilbur will hug you- give him a new game system

Cian loved his cousin Wilbur!

Taking a 3 hour break to play with Wilbur's new Wii

Aunt Leslie again. Cheese Doodle.

Some little boy was exhausted!

Josie opening her gift from Uncle Josh- a new MacBook.

One of the only pics of me from Christmas. I need to get better about
being in more pics!

Mom and Dad playing with Cian's toys! ha

Cian playing with his new blocks from G-ma

One of Cian's favorite toys- his little dinosaur. 

Breaking Pa's back by having him push Cian around

Here is a video of Wilbur pushing Cian around the house
super fast on his dinosaur.

Uncle Josh and Cian

For two Christmas in a row- my sick buddy!

Cheese tasting...

Dec 26... perfect time to get horribly sick for 7 days.

Josie trying to feed Cian while I was sick...
