Christmas and Brenna Update

Brenna surrounded by her loot.
Spencer and Lauren got a sled and bakugons. They were pretty excited.

Ben got a breakfast tray. He's pretty excited.


Brenna wearing the scarf Aunt Eliza made. I think the colors scare her a little.


Spencer got a Grinch floor puzzle. It's pretty cool. He and Lauren put it together and were sad when it had to come apart.


Lauren is excited about the Sculpey she got. She really wants to make things and then bake them to last forever.



The spread. Brenna's favorite part of the morning was crawling to everyone's blanket and eating their cereal and chocolate while they weren't looking.
Brenna's 13 month update. She loves the song "Old McDonald" especially because of the animal glove we have for it. She pulls up to stand on everything and even cruises a little. She once stood up all by herself, but she hasn't tried standing alone. She says "no" and "dada". I think the dada usually refers to Ben but sometimes she uses it for other family members. She loves loves loves cats and watching the birds outside our window. She now has 7 teeth and eats whatever you are eating.

Looks like a wonderful Christmas! My faviorite is Ben's hairdo! How early do you guys wake up?

The kids were up about 6 I think but they just looked at the tree and never came to get us. I think about 8:30ish I got up and said we might as well get things started.

I love the look on Brenna's face with the scarf - so funny!

I laugh every time I look at the top picture. Brenna must be eating something to get such an expression like that but she sure looks like one tough cookie there.

The floor covered in blankets looks a lot like our house did that morning. Stanley tradition. Loved Ben's hair as well.
