It's the most wonderful time of the year!

We started our Christmas celebration on Tuesday night when we got together with some good family friends, the Romines. We made gingerbread houses and ate pizza and exchanged gifts. It was a lot of fun. My sis and I made quite a house!! :)

On Christmas Eve we headed to Grandma and G-Pa's house to play games with granny. Sawyer got to open a present (a new booster seat) and he loved it! He played so hard that he fell asleep on G-Pa's belly! After their house we all headed to church with Layne's family at The River and then went out to dinner at Red Lobster where the waitress put live lobsters on our table and we watched them jump around...gross!! The kids got a big kick out of it, but Layne and Sawyer didn't like it too much!










Christmas morning we opened up the presents that Santa brought and Sawyer loved playing with his new toys. Then we headed to Nanny and Papa's for breakfast and presents and a day full of fun! It was a great Christmas and we still have one event to go! We are celebrating Christmas with Chris's family later this week! What a fun time of year!

Uh Oh!

Sawyer has a new word! Nanny taught him to say "uh oh" this weekend and now he says it non stop! It is so cute :)
He also decided this morning that I was not fast enough at getting him his bottle so he just decided to feed himself. It was a nice relief for me, but I don't like the fact that he needs me less and less each day. He is growing up way too fast!

Christmas Fun

This weekend we headed to Clinton for our annual Bryant Christmas gathering. It is always fun to see everyone and see how the kids have grown and changed. Sawyer had a good time and loved all the attention!! He played with his cousins and we even attempted to get a picture of all the great grandkids, but as you can see by the picture below it didn't turn out so well! Oh well, maybe next year! :)

Fun Videos

Here are a couple of recent videos I took of Sawyer. He has learned to clap this week and wants to do it all the time. Really, he just likes to do anything that requires energy, we think he might be a little hyper! :)

Meeting Santa and getting a new puppy all in one week!

Sawyer has had a big week! On top of getting his second tooth, he got to meet Santa for the first time and his new puppy came to live with him! He wasn't feeling very well when he sat on Santa's lap so he wasn't as excited as he probably wanted to be, but he still liked him all the same. He loves his new puppy and she loves him. We had a lot of fun playing with her last night. What a busy week!

New Family Member

It looks like we are going to be adding a new member to our family! No, we are not having another baby! One of our friends has a dog that they don't have time to take care of so we have agreed to take it in. This will be dog #3 for us, but she is the cutest dog in the world and we thought, "why not have 1 more?"!!! I know I know, we are crazy, but I just love dogs so much and I can't say no!! Below is a picture of our new little cutie...Peanut. Wish us luck! (We do have someone that will be willing to take her if it doesn't work out, so we are not TOO crazy!!)
