Holiday Greetings!

So my Christmas cards were lacking this year, and we took family pictures but our poor photographer had a baby 10 weeks early before she could get us a disc....we might send those out next year! So here's a small update on us and a few pics of the cute kidlins. Jax is busy as ever and has such a crazy imagination. He still loves dancing, especially after he saw auntie Tay dance for BYU's Christmas Around the World. We got front row seats and he didn't take his eyes off the stage. So now he does "preformances" for us all the time, costume changes and everything. He goes "backstage" and pulls all my clothes out of the closet and ends up in some outfits that Bryan doesn't condone...but hey he's just a toddler. :) He also says the funniest things, I've started keeping a page of quotes, some of his recent are:

"Mom, your handwashing was fantastic!"
(When I cleaned out his ears) "I had that there for decoration, I need it back."
"We're just a cute little family, out for a walk."
"I'm going to surprise you with a winter dance!"

Love that kid. And he's really just a great big brother. He love Bren and always take time to play with her. And of course she laughs hysterically at every move he makes. It's so fun to watch them together. And as for little Bren, she's been army crawling since 5 months, but she only does it with her right arm, it moves so fast :) She's rocking on her knees a lot now, but hasn't started crawling yet. Her latest trick though is standing up. Just yesterday she pulled herself up in her crib for the first time, it shocked me when I went in to get her from her nap. She wanted to keep practicing and spent half of last night doing just that...we ended up lowering her crib at midnight b/c we were getting so nervous about her leaning out. And then she'd pull herself up and get stuck and cry for us. When we went in she was just beaming, so proud of herself. She also found she could reach her mobile. So we also removed that after midnight...

We're all good and hope all of you and your families are too! Love you and Merry Christmas!














Does anyone else have a ridiculous time putting photos in?! Geesh... So in random order and all over the place, we have Jaxy's nativity he set up, an example of how I find Jax's pants all over the house, undies in tact :), proud Brenny when I found her after her nap today, the kids reading with Bry, Brenna propped on her side (she always sits like that it's our favorite) and Jaxy in costume :)
