New Year brings New Changes

For New Years Eve we went to our friends, Tanner and LaDonna's.  Jaycee got to play with Aspyn, Kaylee, and Meryn.  I can't believe this is the only picture I took the whole night but it is.

 Then on New Year's Day we ate lunch with Nonni and Grumps and Jaycee decided to make a Coca Cola advertisement ad.  Hehe she looked so cute with her outfit and the coke bottle.

 Again we did not take many pictures of this holiday.  That night my side of the family came over for a New Year's supper which we took a total of zero pictures, sorry.

 And I'm sure people are wondering when I am ever going to mention or post pictures of our new house.  It has already been a month since we moved in and we are loving it.  I'm sure everyone who even reads this blog knows what our house looks like since we moved into my Aunt Roxanne and Uncle Bruce's old house.  I'm going to go ahead and do a few pictures incase someone has not seen it.

Huge living room.  I know I have not taken my Christmas stuff down yet, but I just get so sad to take it down.  I love Christmas decorations!

 The living room looking from the kitchen. (Much more space for Jaycee to roll around.)

 Living room again looking from the hallway

 Jaycee's room.  I want to paint it the same as her old room but I don't know if it will ever get done.  I like it this way too, but I really miss her old room colors!

 A huge closet for a little girl to fill with tons of clothes!

 We must not forget that Griengo loves his new home too.  He likes the window seat.

 The kitchen.  Justin built us that awesome new table, I just have to finish it now.

 Our room.

 Huge backyard for Jaycee & Griengo to play!

Jaycee's First Christmas

 Jaycee got to have more than enough Christmas's.  We are blessed to have all our family around here.  I already posted the first Christmas at Justin's Granny & Papaw's.  Next we had Christmas at Grumps and Nonni's on Christmas Eve morning.

Jaycee being silly with Daddy.  (I think she was trying to do reindeer antlers maybe)

Next we had a Christmas at my Uncle Erith's on the afternoon of Christmas Eve.  Jaycee hanging out with Trish and Auntie Dev.

 On Christmas morning we stayed home and had Christmas at our house with Pappy, Auntie Dev, and Grandma Cherry.  Jaycee opening her gifts.

 Jaycee's favorite gift (other than paper), this sheep, that she kept head butting and trying to eat.  It was so cute.  She'd just bury her head in it.

 Jaycee's first Christmas was a white one and it snowed almost the whole day.

No we're not through yet, we had one final Christmas at Justin's Grandma Kay's house Christmas at noon.  Jaycee enjoyed playing with the girls

Ho, Ho, Ho...Waah

On Tuesday we took Jaycee to see Santa along with the Cains'.  This is a before picture of the kids all dressed up.

 This is such a sweet picture of Daltyn, Breely, and Aspyn with Santa.

 And then we added Jaycee to the mix.  She was fine here.  This is the best picture we could get of Jaycee.

 And then....Her eyes wandered up to who was holding her...

 And the meltdown occured!  For some reason she did NOT like Santa.

 She kind of calmed down for a few a second when he handed her a candy cane, but not for long.

 So then Santa just snuck up behind her to take a picture and she was fine until I think she had the feeling someone was breathing on her and she slowly looked up and WAAH!  She just did not like Santa.  If only she knew that he was bringing her some presents on Sunday.

So I have kind of got addicted to Pinterest.  Today I decided I had better get Jaycee's First Christmas ornament made since time is running out.  So I tried to make a handprint ornament like I had seen on Pinterest.  It really did not turn out too bad, at least I don't think it did.  It was definitely not as easy as it looked to make with a 7 month old who did not want to just let me stamp her hand with the paint on it.  But we did finally get one made.

And this is the footprint tree I wanted to make that I had seen on Pinterest as well.  This was a little bit easier to make but not much.

Christmas Time is Here...Already?!

Christmas is less than a week away!  Where has the year gone?  Jaycee has grown and changed so much in just the past week.  In one week she went from her 6 month pjs to 9 months. How does that happen?? I think she woke up one morning and could sit on her own.  No more boppy pillow for her.  In one week she began eating double the baby food she was.  One night she would never even try to move from where she was, and then the next morning she was rolling across the room and trying to scoot on the carpet.  By scoot I mean, bottom in the air, head on the floor, and inch her way around, then get mad and just roll around.

 These are our Christmas pictures!

We are all but moved into our new house and this little cutie (Aspyn) and some others came to visit the other night.

The girls had so much fun just hanging out playing with there toys.

I cannot believe they are the same age and Aspyn weighs about 2 pounds more than Jaycee.

This past weekend we had our first Christmas at Justin's Granny and Papaw's in Bovina.  Here's the kids lined up with there gifts.

 Jaycee was very interested in everyone's gift wrapping skills.

 Jaycee and Addison playing with her new puppy.

 Landon and Jaycee.  Landon is such a sweet little boy.  He played with Jaycee quite a bit.  Jaycee has a growling voice and she was growling at everyone; Landon goes over to Jaycee and says, "No, no baby Jaycee. No growling."  It was the cutest thing ever!

So we have one Christmas down and about 4 to go...
