December was such a fun month filled with lots of Christmas activities! Here are some pictures of our favorite things we did.
Train Exhibit at Northpark with our MOPS group. Tyler was excited for about 5 minutes and then decided he was done and ran out. :) Maybe next year it will hold a little more of his attention. Tyler and cousin Will giving me a big hug! It is so fun having a cousin that is only 4 months older than Tyler. These two will be big trouble some day!
Making and eating Christmas cookies!
We had a crazy ice storm hit Dallas and lasted what seemed like forever! Don't be fooled…that is not snow but ice! Tyler liked it until he fell down and then he was done. He has no idea how lucky that both December's since he has been alive have had snow/ice. Hopefully next year if it happens again we can go sledding :).
Tyler loved looking at the Christmas lights in Addison. This was our first time coming to this park and we will definitely make it a yearly tradition. It is so beautiful! Obviously Tyler was way more interested in the lights than smiling for a picture.
And then we went to see Santa…

This year we spend Christmas Eve and morning with Brian's family so we did an early Christmas dinner with my family on the Monday before Christmas. Tyler got a kitchen from my parents and a lawn mower from his cousin Tanner.
He loves bringing me coffee, corn, and filling up his cup in the "water dispenser" on the fridge. :)
Christmas Eve we headed over to Brian's parents house for dinner. After dinner they always sing Christmas songs and Tyler LOVED it. He said "more more" after every song.
After diner and songs we let the kids watch a short Christmas movie and then it was off to bed so Santa could get everything ready!
Matching PJs!
Christmas morning we woke up and let Tyler open some of his gifts. Santa brought him an Elmo that sings and hugs as well as a Batman car. His stocking had an M&M cup with a swirly straw, an etch-a-sketch, and a Mr. Potato head. Who would have thought but the "tato" is one of his favorite toys now! LOL
The rest of the day was spent opening gifts and playing. It was such a fun day!
Making the birthday cake for Jesus!
What do you do with all the empty wrapping paper rolls? Hit each other!
We ended the morning by having a silly string fight!
Merry Christmas!
