So that I am able to catch up on pictures this century... I have decided to go ahead and combine a few posts here. For December, we did a lot of things. Loni, Mom and I worked on blankets for Loni's kids for Christmas as well as many things needed for the Newborns in Need project our stake has been working on. One day, we allowed the little kids to make cookies while we worked on bankets.
Near mid December, we had a family party and we were so lucky to have my dad home from the Middle East. Here are my parents with all of the grandkids. Missing from the picture are William, Linzi's stepdaughter and Linzi's baby on the way. My parents' have passed on a great legacy to many children!
My children were thankful to get money from GG Bink-Wink for christmas!!
Mom and dad gave them a goodie bag filled with Lapsiloopy (or whatever it is) trinkets and Beyblades for the boys. We spent about an hour making NICU beanie snakes and NICU pads, so they were thankful for some toys by this point.
They had a little time at the wheel of the flight sim with grandpa as the navigator.
For Christmas Eve, my parents stopped by with some gifts for the children. Haylee got a popcorn maker. She worked with grandpa to make her first bowl.
Trent got BB Guns and a Club Penguin membership that he was wanting for a long time.
Laycee got a barbie waterslide that came with two puppies. She is obsessed with puppies. This toy has now become a bath toy after two times of water spread from one sideof the kitchen to the other. Now, I do not ever have a mess to clean up.
Logan got a drum set!
The Christmas season was one spent with a lot of anticipation about the new baby and about Dave coming home. We were so blessed with so much time with family this year and the numerous distractions to help us pass the time.
