Merry Christmas!

  I have to start off by saying that Addie Rivers LOVES Christmas. Barrett and I were expecting her to be excited that morning but she totally embraced the Christmas spirit as soon as Thanksgiving was over. She walked around singing Alvin and the Chipmunks every day. 

  On Christmas Eve Addie Rivers and daddy made a "ginger house" together. Daddy did most of the work! AR just really likes playing with the candy. 

  And pretending to eat the ginger house.

 

 

   The finished preject. Daddy was so proud of his work that this ginger house is STILL sitting on our table.  

At one point in the night Addie Rivers said. " Best Chrimsums ever!" Which was enough to make this pregnant girl cry! I love how much little things make her happy. 

 

 

We thought last year was fun when she was One but we had no idea how much she would love it this year!

Every time someone would ask her what she wanted she would say. "A Jessie toy, a bullseye toy, a buzz light year toy and a baby doll." 

Santa thought she needed three babies instead of just one. 

Every Christmas afternoon we go and pick up our sweet boy and he stays with us until New Years! 

And they play and play and play for a week. I love how much they love each other! 

  I'm so thankful Barrett has a job that allows him to spend a whole two weeks at home with us for Christmas Break. It was filled with lots of lazy time which every one needed!

  This will be our last Christmas as a family of four. We can't wait for Barker Hayes to join us! 

 Next project- a nursery for baby Hayes!
