Christmas 2009

So another Christmas has come and gone. I think it's safe to say that the kids had a GREAT one! My house now looks like a toy store exploded and keeping the toys contained has become a never ending battle. It's so worth it though. Aidan told me numerous times that he had the "best Christmas ever", and that makes all the craziness go away and spreads love across my heart.

So, here are some total snapshots from our holiday. Nothing fancy. It's very hard to take pictures of kids in a room that is dark and about 12 feet wide!

We celebrate Christmas Eve by having dinner and then the kids open the presents that their Grandma and Grampa Hosking send them and the presents from us.

Aidan was VERY excited to get this Imaginext castle.

Believe it or not, Addie was excited about new clothes!

Aidan wasn't as excited about his new pajamas.

Addie loved her new books.

He's such a goofball!

Then we open presents from SANTA on Christmas morning...

Addie LOVES her new baby crib. LOVES IT! She's feeding one of her new dolls while wearing her Dora Backpack.

Aidan loved everything.

We also went to my parents house where they got even MORE!!!! The kids had such a great day. So much fun and so much to keep them busy!
Here was Addie earlier today playing with her Kai Lan doll.

And Aidan, as I often see him...

Merry Christmas to all of our friends and family!!!! Hope you all had a wonderful holiday and wishing you a fabulous New Year!!!

My Addie Joy

This girl is so funny. Last week she came into the kitchen dressed like this...

According to her, she was "Glamorous Princess Kitty Cat Addie".♥

The funniest part is that AIDAN is the one who set her up with this ensemble! LOL!

And for a new pic of her that I LOVE! I had taken this one a while ago. It's been sitting here waiting for me to get to it and I'm so glad that I did! I remember the two of us were hanging out on the floor of the family room being silly. I remember the way she was looking at me and took a picture. This is SOOOOOO Addie.

Afterward we got a photo opp for the kids in his classroom...

Baby Chase, 6 days old

Look at this cute little guy! I got to meet sweet baby Chase earlier this week. His mom is the beautiful Jenny who's pictures I took here.

This little cutie definitely gave me a run for the money! Hard to believe when you see this sweet little face!

The little guy couldn't help it. He just wanted to sleep without me messing with him. I can't say I can blame him one bit!

He was his happiest when he was with his mommy and daddy. They just love him so much.

Congratulations to Jenny and Jerry. The three of them make such a beautiful family!

About Me

My photo
I'm a stay at home mom of two kids. Life is sometimes quite busy to say the least! In the little spare time I have, I've been learning a bit of photography. I have sooo much to learn, but I really, really enjoy it. I also enjoy my time at the gym. Not only does it help keep me centered (as possible), I'm slowly getting back to my pre-pregnancy weight! I am married to my wonderful husband, Jim. We've been married for close to five years! It's so hard to believe how fast these years have flown! We all live together in suburban Detroit, along with our dog, Zoe and our cat, Telly!
