A few posts!

Get ready for a whole months' worth of stuff! We had a great and very busy month of December! We planned the ward Christmas party, had a primary Christmas party at our house, celebrated Christmas early with my family in Utah, went to Hawaii, went to Cali to celebrate Christmas with the Mealeys', went the to the Dr a couple times, and finally celebrated the New Year!

We are now home for a couple days and then it is off to Cancun for another mini Vaca!
I really love that we are able to travel so much but I can't wait to just be home!
Get ready for a picture overload! And I'm sure there will be more to come!


This is Maddix's new favorite place to be...

Fun pictures. He is such a cutie. He sure is growing up fast! Can't wait till he will like the play groups. I miss you. Feel like we never get much time to just sit and talk like we use to. Probably my fault. Hope you have a good new year!

Yay for vacations! I love hearing about when other people love to travel too. Looks like you had a great time and a fun Christmas/New Years. We just came back from Cancun. We love it there. We are also headed to Puerto Rico in a couple weeks!

Natalie it looks like you had an awesome break! Your little guy is growing so fast. I think the best picture is of Eric in the nativity scene. I laughed so hard at how thrilled he looked. His face captures that Christmas spirit. Have fun in Cancun, sad we won't be there!

Judy said...

Natalie, he looks so big sitting in that chair. He is so cute. Have fun on all your vacations!

You are right, its definitely an exciting time...nerve racking as well. I am nervous about the whole labor thing, but can't wait to see what he looks like. I have been in some pain, so as soon as he comes I hope it will be a releif!

By the way, I love all these pictures. Maddix is getting so big, and really is so adoreable! Looks like you guys have been having so much fun!

Looks like you guys have been having tons of fun! I can't wait until we can get out of Ammon and go on a vacation! It has been way to long! Maddix is soooo cute! I can't believe how much he has grown! Doesn't it happen so fast...before you know it he will be running all over the place and in school. Take every single second of this time with him this little and treasure it! (But I know you already do!) Hope to see you soon!
