Christmas Day...Merry Christmas!

Christmas morning our parents wanted to take a picture of us in our Christmas dresses before we could open up our presents. Don't we look pretty?

Here we are in another pose our parents made us do...they like to see the size difference between us. I'm 8 months old, Lexi is 4 1/2 months old, & Elisabeth is 1 1/2 months old.

Here I am opening up a gift from Grandma & Grandpa Byeman...

...I got my first doll!! I really like her a lot...so much that I already have given her lots of kisses! She even likes it when I chew on her hat!

"Wow, Grandma & Grandpa...thanks for all the gifts!! I'm loved so much!"

We had a great 1st Christmas with Jaelyn~although more tiring than any other Christmas! I think I was in bed by 8pm!! So much fun, though!! I can't imagine life without her!! She is such a blessing...love you! :)

My first Snowman!

Here is a look at my very first snowman! Along with my Uncle Brad & Aunt Suzanne, my Mommy & Daddy built this huge snowman for Lexi & I! Supposedly the snow wasn't the greatest packing snow, but they found some good stuff by where the deer come & eat (thanks to Grandpa setting out some food for them).


Here is Lexi with her older brother, Brutus. He's just a little bigger than she is (ha!)!

Up at the cabin

It was off to Grandma & Grandpa Byeman's cabin for a little time in the mountains. A white Christmas was a must for the 3 girls' 1st Christmas! We had to take advantage of this family photo op...it was absolutely gorgeous! There was so much snow!! Doesn't it look like a fake background? :)

Daddy & the two girls...Jaelyn always has a big smile to give for the camera!

Jaelyn is such a big ham when the camera is pointing her way! Do you see her two pearly whites?!

Thanks to Daddy, this is what Jaelyn wants to do ALL DAY long! Thanks for walking with me, Grandpa!

Me & Lexi had some good bonding time together!! It will be such fun to play with each other when we get a bit older! So, for now our parents just plop us next to each other for pictures!!

Jaelyn's 1st Christmas!

Our first Christmas as a family of 3!! We had such a fun Christmas with Jaelyn!! We had our "little" party on Saturday morning before the Lynden Christmas. I'm sure next year will be even more fun when she'll be able to open up her own gifts!

Had to get our 1st Family Christmas photo in front of the tree!

Here is Jaelyn opening up her first present!! She was trying to climb inside the box!!

Daddy & Jaelyn opening up another present...she is so excited to see what it is...ok, so she's probably just as excited to eat the ribbon!

Thanks Grandpa Post for the cool books & chair! I will have lots of fun loungin' in it & reading lots of books with Mommy & Daddy!!

My tooth and Cherrios!

Can you see my first tooth? It's that little white thing on the bottom..it's amazing how much pain I had to go through to get it!

Yummy...cherrios! It's much easier if mom puts them in my mouth at this point...but I'm working on using my fingers to get these little buggers into my mouth. It's fun to be eating something other than rice cereal, veggies or fruit.

It's Snowing!!!

This was the scene yesterday afternoon at our house...our first snowfall of the season! We quick put on Jaelyn's new stocking hat (thanks Uncle Dan & Aunt Kim!) and brought her on the deck so that she could experience snow for the first time! There was some accumulation, but it soon melted in the evening thanks to the rain.
Isn't this child the most precious looking kid out there?! :)

Jaelyn wondering what all this white stuff is about!
