Christmas Day!

We had such a great Christmas! My mom worked so Dan and I spent the day with just our kiddies! My mom and Jim did come over later to see what the kids got.


Blair's haul from Santa! She LOVES her new kitchen. She is always playing with it. When friends are over they always seem to gravitate toward it. The table and Chair set is from Grandma and Grandpa Crane. It looks so so cute set up in her room!
Lukas's Santa Haul! He loves his bat man chair. He sits in it when ever he plays his DS or the Wii. Lukas is so funny because one of the first things he said when he saw what Santa brought him was, "Look at my new electric tooth brush!" SERIOUSLY! I was laughing so hard. A) You would think he never had an electric tooth brush before. I promise we have! B) Out of all the stuff you are excited over your electric tooth brush.
Lukas up graded from a three wheel scooter to a two wheel!
I realized that I didn't take that many pics of Blair for some reason. :( Man I hope she doesn't end up having second child syndrome because her mom is so dense!
Lukas got a full set of Bat man Trio's! He was so excited! He had been asking for these for a long time!
Blair in her Christmas Sunday best! As you can tell she got some Hello Kitty stamps in her stocking. She pretty much stamped her whole body with them. I had to take them away and hide them.
Lukas in his Christmas Sunday best!
My two cute kids with the funny faces! I love when Christmas falls on a Sunday. It is so nice to go and have a program to remind us why we celebrate Christmas!
Lukas REALLY LOVES his bat man chair! I hope everyone else had a wonderful Christmas.

Christmas Eve

Christmas Eve is always spent at Dan's parents. We love going over there and spending time with cousins and family. My kids LOVE their cousins and it is always so much fun playing and spending this evening with them.


Before we went to grandma and grandpa's my kids did their yearly tradition of opening their Christmas Eve books and reading them.



The grand kids act out the Nativity every year. This year Lukas was a Wise man, and Blair was an angel. Blair really loves being an angel since she gets to wear a princess crown, and hold a wand. Every little girl's dream!

Opening her cousin gift from Carter! A Dora back pack! She loves it and carries it around and has to make sure all the pieces are in there including the map. Funny thing, Blair had Carter also.

Lukas opening up his cousin gift from Taylor! He LOVES his Star Wars gun. He got a few more on Christmas Day. Blair and him run around the house shooting everything!
Grandma and Grandpa's gift!
Look at that smirk! He was so excited! He had no idea that these Star War's toys even existed. I could see how happy his little heart was to get them!
Blair's Christmas gift from Grandma and Grandpa! I didn't get the final pic. She kept turning away from me whenever I would try to get a pic. I gave up! This girl is always on the move!
Hands up!
Thanks so much Grandma and Grandpa, Cousins, Aunts and Uncles! We always have such a great time with you. We missed you Doug, Staci, Kelli and Brady fam, and Greg and Holly fam!

Santa and Gingerbread houses!

Last Saturday we took the kids to see Santa and we made Ginger bread houses!

Blair LOVED this little elf that moved while we were waiting in line for Santa.
However, Blair did NOT love Santa! In fact she was terrified. She clung to Dan and wouldn't even get near him.
Lukas loved Santa and asked him for a Wii game.
Making gingerbread houses. Lukas was so so excited to do this!
I was so sad because I bought Blair a gingerbread house too but when I opened it it was pretty much in pieces. Also things were missing out of the kit. It was sad. We made do though and made her a little ginger bread "trailer". No matter how hard you try frosting and graham cracker roofs just don't stay up!

We did it!

We did it we are potty trained! (every once in a while we will get in accident.) We put Blair in underwear on a Thursday. She had 3 accidents the first day. The next day before noon she had already had 3 accidents! I was thinking oh man we might be in for it. Then after noon she didn't have a single accident. She ended up not having another accident for almost a week! It was awesome! I was so proud of her. Plus a little bonus, we never had a single poop accident! She is such a big girl.

We went to Toys R Us and she picked out her potty toys. She picked this Minnie Mouse Bowtique.

She also picked that big hello kitty back pack. It is so huge on her, but oh so cute!

Christmas Dance recital

My kids had their Christmas Dance recital on Dec 14th. This was Blair's first one! I wasn't sure if she would get up there and freeze. She didn't, she did fabulous! She did the dance better then I had ever seen her do it. It was so cute to see her shake her little hips and do her ballet kicks. She loves ballet so much! Lukas, did excellent like always. That kid really has some talent. I love watching my kids do things they enjoy. My hear just bursts with joy every time.


Blair in her tu tu that Miss Monica her teacher made the girls! She looked so adorable. I don't have any pics of Lukas cause my memory card ran out of room!

Miscellanous pics!

Last Disneyland post! PROMISE!

Lukas in his Mickey Shirt in front of the entrance!
In the Tarzan Tree House. Lukas is strong! He climbed this rope to the top NO help!
They had this game in a candy store on Main Street. Blair LOVED it. While Lukas was collecting his smash coins, she would play this. Pretty much you just push buttons and make Pinnochio dance.
Waiting for the parade!
Blair's princess doll. It is Little Mermaid then turns into Sleeping Beauty when you flip her around and turn her inside out.
Gotta have a turkey leg!
Disneyland has the best treats! I could eat all day there. So could Blair.
Lego was dying to go to the Lego store in Down Town Disney. He was so excited when we went. He got his first Star Wars Lego set. He loves it so much!

Lukas thought this was the coolest! Darth Vadar out of legos! Who wouldn't. Blair was fascinated by it.
Woody!
My kids favorite treat was Cotton Candy!

Toon Town

I LOVE Toon Town! It is so cute with all of the houses, and fun things to play on.
Gracie and Blair on Donald's Boat! Blair got use to playing with Gracie every day. Ever since we got home she has been asking to play Gracie every single day.
Peek a Boo!
Not going to lie sometimes I want to put my kids behind bars so they don't get into anything. ;)
Calling Grandma!


Blair was so fascinated with Mickey's washing machine. She seriously stood there and stared for about 5 minutes at it. I don't have any pictures of Lukas at Toon Town, he kept running away with his cousins before I could get a pic.
