Christmas Day

As usual, the 3 boys were waiting for Samuel to roll himself out of bed so they could dig into their gifts. In fact, this year they stood outside the door shouting "WAKE UP SAMUEL!!". Talk about a rude awakening. You can see Samuel is still stretching trying to wake up here.

The boys' big gift was a new costume box.

Lots of Star Wars costumes!

Even one for Daddy!

Breaking in their new citiblocs.

Mommy's try at the blocks.

Preschool Christmas Program

The littles had their Christmas program on Thursday and both boys did really well. They knew their songs and Samuel knew his lines. Somehow Asher ended up being the front row all by himself, which was.......entertaining.

Cookies With Mimi (Picture Heavy)

Mimi was here for a visit this week and made cookies with the boys. She had brought with her the cutest sprinkles ever from an Amish community in Iowa. I think some of the cookies were more sprinkles than actual cookies. And I think the boys ate as many sprinkles as they put on cookies.

Blue and green dolphins.

Pink pigs, rainbow butterflies.

Black and white cows.

Asher's 4th Birthday!

Asher turned 4 yesterday. He got his birthday crown at school in the morning, which thrilled him to no end, and we had a nice celebration at home last night. He's such a sweet kid, happy about every little part of his special day.
