Video of Nathan opening gift

Christmas pictures!

We had a great Chritmas. Nathan was old enough to enjoy opening gifts. He would rip the paper and say "woooh" it was soo cute. We had a wonderful first Christmas. On Christmas Eve we just relaxed around the house, went to the Christmas Eve service at Harvest with Crystal Lewis, than baked a cake for Jesus's Birthday. After Nathan went to sleep we watched the Nativity and wraped gifts until almost midnight.

It was such a joy to enjoy Christmas with our baby, as we opened gifts Nathan was crawling around and super interested in what we were doing. We took our time and started traditions we can keep year after year.

On Christmas day we went to my parents in the afternoon then went to Matt's family that evening. Everyone was so generous, it turned out to be a wonderful day!

HAPPY BIRTHDAY JESUS!!

“For to us a child is born, to us a son is given, and the government will be on his shoulders. And he will be called Wonderful Counselor, Mighty God, Everlasting Father, Prince of Peace.”- Isaiah 9:6

"Thank you Lord for coming to this earth and dying for our sins, we love you so much. To be born in such a humble way, Happy Birthday Jesus! We give this day, and our lives to you."

It's Tree time

We had a great time picking our Christmas tree. Every year we go to Live Oak Canyon to get our live Christmas tree. We search for just the right one. It was fun doing this as a family. We find it, take the ticket off, then give it to the people and they cut the tree down for us. It was $45, tree's arn't cheap these days guess we are paying for the experience. It was worth it. Christmas time is here, yippee. Now it's the proccess of making the time to decorate it, and all that goes along with that. Have a Great Day!

Nathan's first Hair Cut!

This was Nathan's first hair cut, a little shaky but it works. He did well, he was so preoccupied with the mail, he really didn't notice he was getting his hair cut. It is amazing how quickly my little boy is growing before my eyes.

He is very excited about everything and wants to grab and touch everything. Today he grabbed a pitcher of ice tea and dumped it on the ground. I was not so happy about that, it's easy to get frustrated and forget that he is so little and just wants to learn about life. Oh man patience is not only a virtue but a fruit of the spirit. Hope you find yourself blessed.

Nathan is getting into Trouble!

Matt shot this video a couple weeks ago, don't worry Nathan did not get hurt. Although yesterday he did fall and cut his lip, his mouth was bleeding and I felt so bad. He is pulling himself up and getting into everything. He is super quick so before you know it boom. Later last night after the fall he got his hand stuck and pinched in a toy, ouch. That's when we decided to call it a night.

Today he got up in my room on our hope chest and bumped his head and got a bruise. I feel like this is the transition from baby to boyhood and all so soon. I always heard stories of boys hurting themselves, I am definitely not looking forward to this as he grows.

Turkey Time!

Ok so this is a little late in coming, but we had a great Thanksgiving. Nathan LOVED all the food surprise surprise. I would venture to say it is his favorite holiday so far.
