Christmas is Coming!

Santa Claus is coming to town!  We are so excited for Christmas to come.  Makayla can hardly wait for Santa to come down her chimney to leave some presents for her.  Every morning she runs in the living room and plugs in the Christmas Tree.  She wants to watch Christmas movies all day long, and she requests music--Christmas music.  We have had a fun season.

We saw Santa at the Christmas Village in Ogden, but Makayla wouldn't sit on Santa's lap.  For some reason she got nervous when we got right up to him.  Good thing Daxton is too little to know what is going on!  The next day we saw Santa at Macey's and Makayla was thrilled to get a candy cane from him.  Silly girl.

Devin went to school Fall Semester while working about 50 to 60 hours per week.  His classes FINALLY ended and then he went on a business trip for work.  I feel like I haven't been able to really enjoy the Christmas spirit with him at all.  I will be very relieved when he returns home tomorrow and he can have 11 whole days off of work.  Now we just have to squeeze in Christmas Eve, Christmas Day, a family vacation, a wedding, a birthday party, a homecoming, and New Year's Eve into those few days.  Sheesh.  I am not sure his break will feel like much of a break, but I will be glad to have him around regardless. I am one tired mommy!

 My kiddos love the tree, and they have treated it so well!  No broken ornaments, and mostly everything has stayed in its place.  Happy!

 Makayla looks a bit possessed in this photo, but I liked how it made them glow.

 Daxton loves to be around Makayla.  He giggles out of control when she stops to play with him.  He is getting too big though :(

 I think my kids look a lot alike.  They have similar eyes and noses.  And, naturally, I think they are adorable.

 Love his blue eyes.

 I put Dax on Makayla's tummy and they both thought it was hilarious.  Funny kids.

 I just can't get enough of him.  Honestly....I am totally smitten.

 We decided to make a snowman pizza for dinner one night for fun.  Makayla had a lot of fun putting on the cheese and making a face.  Thanks, Pinterest ;)

I can't believe we are to FOUR months already.  Wow, the time flies by.  Daxton is growing and developing just as he should.  He is such a sweet baby.

We can't wait for Christmas.  Happy holidays all!
