Christmas Eve

Wyatt in his Santa suit from Great Grandma Rogers. He is going to wear it for the next three days straight, seeing as it will never fit again....
Santa Wyatt

Aunty Claire and Ethan working hard at decorating a beautiful gingerbread house. Wyatt was supervising.

The Finished product

Wyatt talking to Daddy. Kelly was telling Wyatt he would be home tomorrow :) For all of the 'Friends' fans, we think Wyatt looks like Pheobe when she was pregnant and wearing Santa pants...


20 months later, I am finally putting Ethan's footprints into his baby book...


We did Wyatt's feet and hands too, he really didn't enjoy the expereience.

It is Christmas Eve! I can't believe today is already here. I have already recieved my first Christmas gift. My little Wyatt slept ALL night. I know I talk about sleep alot on my blog but really it is a major factor in my all around mood and usually determines how the day to follow is going to go. I am so very proud of my little guy and have my fingers and toes crossed that he can continue this!
No one in the house got up until 9 am this morning, My dad made a delicious breakfast and I began the Bake-a-thon 2010. I have been baking since 10 this morning and I still have so many more things to make. So far I have made Chocolate peanut butter coconut squares, Those yucky raison tart things... Don't know the name but Kelly loves them, shortbread, Mint Chocolate chip cookies up next is Pineapple squares. I bought Nanaimo bars because they are far cheaper to buy than make.
Kelly arrives home tonight around 9 so I am going to keep the boys awake because there are a few family traditions that have to take place. Granny always gives us a set of Pajama's on Christmas eve to wear to bed that night and for Christmas morning, we also have to read the Night Before Christmas. My dad usually reads this but I think he is going to pass the torch on to Kelly this year. We have a fake tree for the first time in my entire life, but we all thought it was too much work to take down the tree I had up and redecorate.
I am still in my pajamas and plan to stay in them until I am done my cooking. I once made these meatball things (from the biggest loser cook book). Anyways Kelly loved them, I was pregnant at the time and they made me vomit, so I can't eat them ever again. But since we haven't seen Kelly in awhile and it is Christmas eve I thought it would be nice of me to make them, so add that to the list.
This is our first Christmas in Alberta, we have really got the house decorated and I am very excited about waking up with the boys in the morning! Fairly certain that Santa will make a stop at our house.
MERRY Christmas Everyone!
