Santa...kind of!

We have talked for weeks about going to the mall to see Santa, and every time, Boo says that she can't wait to see him! Since Daddy was off this week, we figured it was a good time to go. We got to the mall and Boo ran all through the mall saying "Santa Santa, I see him! Hoopee!" Well, when it was our turn, she got really upset and wouldn't go near him! Zach didn't seem to mind sitting on Santa's lap (we hadn't planned on Zach sitting on Santa's lap...that is why he is wearing pjs and a hat....he kind of looks like a little mobster on Santa's lap doesn't he?)! We finally got her to sit on my lap and have her picture taken with Santa....oh well, maybe next year:)

Zach meeting the Great Grandparents

We took a little road trip to Asheboro this morning so we could introduce Zach to his great grandparents (Greg's grandparents) for the first time! They were so excited to see him! Mackenzie really warmed up fast and had a great time running all over, and playing with Great Grandma's walker! Zach just took everything in and had a good time watching his crazy sister run around! It was a very nice visit for everybody:)

Christmas Number 1

We did Christmas with Chris, Kristy, Thomas, Cathy, Kyle, Meme and Dub last weekend! It was the first time in a while that Thomas and Mackenzie had seen each other, but it was just like old times! They had SO much fun playing together...it was so cool to listen to them talk to each other and hear what they had to say:) We all had a great time, and Mackenzie was so into opening presents...she and Thomas both kept wanting to open more and more! Zach had a great time too...watching everything from his swing:)

Zach's week

Zach has really grown in the past week. He is so "talkative!" He loves to hold these conversations with you and just smiles and smiles! He is starting to roll to his sides which is great, and he really is getting into his toys now!

Boo and Z

This is not good...they are already teaming up against me when it comes to having their pictures taken.....

Time for a haircut!

We FINALLY made it to the kids hair salon last week for Boo to get her haircut! She LOVES this place! She does really well sitting still and watching the little video they play while she gets her haircut. The lady put a red bow in her hair along with sparkles and Boo said "I am a princess mommy just like Cindererreellla!" She was so proud of her new do:)

December + 80 degrees= THE PLAYGROUND

We have spent every morning this week at a different playground! I can't believe that it is 2 weeks from Christmas and it is 80 degrees outside! On Tuesday, we spent the morning at Pullen Park with Skyler! Boo hasn't seen her best friend in over a month, so it was a nice surprise for her. I didn't tell Boo that Skyler was coming and when we pulled into the parking lot and she saw Skyler's car...she was SCREAMING...."Mommy, mommy there's my Skyler...she come to play at the park with me...yipppeee!"

Animal Sorting

The other day, Boo asked to play with all her zoo animals that we bought at the zoo, so out of the closet they came. I left the playroom to go do something and when I came back this is what I found! She lined up all the like animals....she has been doing this a lot lately! She definitely gets this trait from her daddy:)

Aunt Cathy and cookies

Aunt Cathy and Mackenzie had a blast with their project together on Saturday! They made Christmas Tree cookies! Boo was so excited to help Aunt Cathy mix the cookie dough, and then roll it out and cut the shapes, and then put the sprinkles on. She had a hard time only putting a few sprinkles on each cookie...she wanted the entire jar of sprinkles to go on her cookie:) Boo is still talking about making her cookies, and wants to know what else she can cook with Aunt Cathy.....looks like Aunt Cathy has a new cooking buddy:)

Mad Zach

This picture reminds me so much of Mackenzie when she would get mad as a baby! We have a picture of her that looks just like this....only it is in my scrapbook and I can't post it! I'll see if Greg can work his computer magic and get the picture of Mackenzie up so you can see how much they really do look like each other:)

Zach is 3 months old!!!!

I can not believe that Zach is already 3 months old....I know I say it a lot, but boy does time fly! There is not a whole lot going on right now, just getting ready for Santa to come! Here are some pictures of Zach over the last 3 weeks...
