I John 3:18

1 John 3:18 - "Dear children, let us not love with words or speech but with actions and in truth." . . . This is a great verse to remind us to not only talk the talk, but walk the walk.

better late then never...

our computer crashed a few weeks ago so that is why I haven't added any new pictures lately.

so first and for most, our Christmas Card !!



Elijah did sooooooo amazingly well with Christmas this year!! We were so proud of him :) He "ooooo-ed and aaahhh-ed" at EVERY gift he got. Waited his turn to open and loved all of his toys!

We got up at 5:00 am (I know... we ARE crazy) and drove over to my parents house to have Christmas morning with them, my niece and nephew (6 & 4), and brother.

Here are some pictures of our morning.....

looking at all the presents


smiles with cousin Liana

opening his first present from Grandma and Papa.
It's a 'CHOO-CHOO' ornament!! he loved it!!

after looking at it for a sec, he knew right away that it was for the tree
and started saying "tree tree"!!

and then his cousin, Liana, helped him put it on the tree :)

taking his new back pack suit case for a test run

a yo gabba gabba guitar!!!


family picture in our PJ's


Elijah is looking a little tired lol


playing with his new tent.... he knocked it over.

After we were done at my parents we came back home and had our Christmas with
Steven's mom...

when Elijah walked in to the living room he noticed that he had 3 "choo-choo's" going around the track!

He was soooo excited! he waved at it every time it drove by him lol
"choo- cho0" !!!!!!!!!!!
oh look a toy box! and there is a special drawer... with more "choo-choo's"!!!!!
putting them all together and watching them go!

after we did our christmas here, we all got dressed and headed back to my parents house
to hang out some more. and then we went back home and had christmas with the rest of steven's family.


I was a very busy day, but so worth it!
Elijah was so wiped out that he found his little doodle thing and
laid on the couch and played quietly for about an hour! (love this picture!)
