Merry Merry Holidays

We have had the most magical Christmas. It really takes the whole season to a new level when you have a toddler. This is the first year that Taylor has really "understood" Santa.. and WOW... we have had the best time.
Christmas Eve Day was a nice 75 degrees. So we played in the leaves and spent a few hours at the park.
Taylor loved it... not so much the dirty part.. but everything else
at the park
singing jingle bells
Daddy and Coop at the park. ( isn't my husband dreamy)
Christmas Eve night we made cookies for Santa, went to Candy cane Lane to see the lights and made reindeer food. This is Taylor and Dusty discussing the best place to put the reindeer food.
This is my FAVORITE.. Taylor looking up for Santa
pouring the reindeer food.
looking over the goods: Oatmeal, sprinkles, and marshmallows.
Cookies. milk and carrots for St nick
Taylor was very excited and went right to bed no questions asked. Both kids were fast asleep by 7:30
and then Santa came!

Stockings all hung
Taylor woke up at 6:45 so we started getting busy right away.
Thank you grammie and papa for daddy's new driver!
Cooper getting in on the action
Santa brought Taylor a bike. This is the hot new ticket. No peddles or training wheels so they learn to use there balance right away. This is Daddy helping Taylor get started
Of course the outfit is the most important part of the bike riding experience. { Again this is genetic.. not from me but from my sister Allie, they are kindred spirits}
getting ready. Look at those shoes! Thanks Nana
Starting to understand how to balance!
