25 days until Christmas

Hudson and I made an advent calendar and inside each envelope we came up with an activity to do counting down the days until Christmas. So we started at 25 and 1 will be Christmas eve (1 day until Christmas).

Todays activity was play with play-doh. So he rolled and cut play-doh using Christmas cookie cutters.

I am hoping to blog each day's activity.

Aunt Cat visits!!!!

Kendan finally got to meet Cat. She so sweetly threw a baby shower for me when I was pregnant with him, and we hadn't been able to get our schedules to coordinate on her previous visits to Atlanta. We were so happy she and Cole were able to come visit. My kiddos were a little under the weather, and I was so tired from black Friday shopping but we were very happy for the time we got to spend with them.

Thankful Heart

These pictures show our many blessings. Wagon rides being pulled by Max (Hudson's horse) and Marty (Maddox's horse), riding Max with 'Pa while Kobe's Sarah rides Marty, 6 cousins that love each other like siblings (fussing and all), and our sweet addition this Thanksgiving...our happy baby, Kendan. We have so much to be thankful for, and this holiday season I am trying to stay focused on that and not on the "I wants..."

Thanksgiving Visits

We started our trip with a visit to see Todd, Rachel, Abbey, and Molly. We saw their beautiful new house, and then we all went to see Nandie. After our visit there we went to Statesboro and saw Mema. She will be 90 in February! We are all in McRae now and the cousins are having a blast together. The last picture is our future pig driver. :-)

Thanksgiving Party at BHBC Weekday Preschool

We went to Hudson's school for his Thanksgiving party today. They had so many goodies they had made, like their vests and headbands. I've attached pictures of some of my favorites! I also snapped a picture during their blessing (I couldn't resist) Also a picture of Hudson with his buddy at school, Canyon and one with his teachers, Ms. Tammy (right) and Ms. Jami (left). He loves school, and I love that he does!

Go Dawgs

Why do baseball hats make babies look like big kids. He sure is cute though. I love being his mommy! Just this week he has started crawling on his knees, pulling up, saying "bye-bye" and waving. His little fingers go to flapping as soon as you say bye-bye. Sweet boy! He loves eating real food WAY more than baby food. He is so happy and fun! He loves his big brother! At his 9 month check up he was 20.6 lbs (46%) and 29 1/2 inches (85%). He is full of personality!

So, if you're interested in the groupon just click the link below. :) Happy Blogging.

I'm so excited about this! I have been waiting for a good deal, and this one doesn't expire until the END of December so I have time to get my Santa pictures on there. :)

In years past I have done elegant Christmas cards. This one on Shutterfly would be a top contender for me this year. This year I have been intriqued by the retro designs like this one as well. I have some beautiful pictures of my kiddos, and I want them front and center on my card. So I also like this one! I also have always put a picture with Santa on my card, so I'm hoping that our pictures with Santa this year turn out good.
