The Most Wonderful Time

It truly is the most wonderful time of the year.  This past month has flown by and it's hard to believe that it is already Christmas Eve.  We have had so much fun with the boys this season and I love to see the excitement through through their eyes.  I have taken quite a few pictures, with both my phone and camera, and want to make sure I capture all of these memories in a post.  I apologize in advance for the amount of pictures below!

Thanks to Mimi, we kicked off the month with an advent calendar and have had a blast doing a new activity each day.  

 On the first day we opened a few sets of Christmas pjs that we have been sporting all month!

And attempted pictures in our new pjs... Also, please note that Henry is wearing big boy undies!! It was about time but the boy is pretty much potty trained.  

 We like to play in the potty that remains in our living room... I promise it is clean here!

We attempted more pj pics in front of the tree... You can sense the brotherly love, right?? :)

We decorated a Christmas tree with sticker ornaments that doubled as a fort...

We wore our new Christmas shirts to school... 

 We baked cupcakes on Charlie's birthday! 

 And of course licked the icing :)

We did a Christmas puzzle... 

And climbed on big brother who was sitting in our new chair...  

 We read Christmas stories...  

 And wore Santa hats... 

 And made hot chocolate!  Of course the best part was filling up the cup with marshmallows :)

 We went Christmas shopping... 

 And looked cute :)

 And even cuter... 

We decorated the tree with felt candy canes.. 

 We discovered the ornaments were like balls that were so much fun to throw!  Thank goodness they are plastic :) 

 We attended their Christmas party at school... 

 And attempted a family pic :) 

 We baked cookies and cinnamon rolls at Mimi's house!

 We visited Santa...  

 And loved it!  

 At least one boy did... :)  

We climbed in drawers.. 

 And stole more ornaments off the tree... :) 

It really has been the most wonderful time of the year and I'm looking forward to spending the next few days with family celebrating the true reason for the season.  

Merry Christmas!!
