Jingle Jangle

I can't get that dang song from the Chipmunks out of my head.
You know the one…
"Ho Ho Ho and Merry Christmas. Jingle jangle bells will ring."

Go away Chipmunks! Christmas is over! Hahaha. I still love them anyway.

Our Christmas was amazing. As usual. We are SO spoiled and so blessed to have family all around us.

It's weird that I look tan in this photo. I'm quite pasty in real life.

Josiah is such a little artist. And Ella has the cheesiest smile.

On Christmas Eve day Buddy left the boys an early Christmas gift the he snuck from Santa.
And Micah got "glued" by a fireman (made him happy)  after getting a cut near his eye.

Josiah and Ella were waiting in the playroom for Micah to wake up and go see if Santa came.

She licked off all of the frosting from her pop tart.

Pa Brian.

Big hugs after opening the gifts they bought for each other.
*Proud Mommy*

Aunt Sarah and Uncle Ben bought them these awesome reversible spider costumes.

Uncle Beau picked out this fur hoodie. And check out those boots!

Merry Christmas indeed!

What I Love About....Santa Pics

Here's What I Love About....Santa Pictures.

Yes, I'm one of those Moms that tortures her children and makes them sit on Santa's lap and take a Christmas picture.

Every. Year.

I want one until they are too old to take one of themselves and must make their children take one.

I. Love. These.

So here's the pics from when Josiah was 3 months old to today. Enjoy!

{Cause I do!}
