Fun Times in the Snow!

Stone had so much fun playing in the snow... he got to make snow angels, sled, throw a few snowballs and even eat a little bit! The snow was a great treat for Christmas but unfortunately Oklahoma does not have the equipment to remove the snow so the roads are still crazy 4 days later and we are expected to get more later this week! Fun times for winter break!

Even the poor Canadian Geese and ducks were frozen on the pond!

Christmas 2009

Santa arrived safe after his sleigh got stuck in the snow! A little push and after parking it in the nearest spot Santa was on his way carrying the gifts! The gifts looked great under the tree... I love the fact that he wrote in his letter to Santa on Christmas Eve to please bring him a Superman Costume!

(Santa got the costume 90% off after Halloween!)

Rubbing his eyes while checking out the gifts from the Jolly man in the Red Suit!

He was quite excited that Santa remembered to bring him just what he wanted!

A little Sushi set from Mom and Dad- definitely could not compete with Santa's gift!

Stone lost under the tree looking for more presents!

All his loot! We did not go too crazy this year! Stone was quite spoiled when we were in Boston and Pittsburg!

He really enjoyed his marble run he got from Auntie Carla- it just about killed him to not be able to open it until Christmas day- it was under the tree since the tree went up at the beginning of December!

Daddy and Stone carrying out all the trash! They are bundled up since we got 14 inches of snow on Christmas Eve!

Conversations with Stone

Last night as we were in the car driving home from Starbucks; Stone peeps up for the backseat and says; “I sure am excited about the baby!”. So Lj asks him if he has thought of any names he likes and after much thought Stone gives us four names...

Santa Claus

Baby

Santa

Little Baby

I guess you can really tell what is on his mind- Santa. He is very quiet about the baby when people ask him; I think he is still trying to process it all! He went with us to the first appointment and he thought the heartbeat was too loud on the ultrasound machine!
