It's beginning to look a lot like Christmas....



Happy Holidays!  I just love the Christmas Season, and having two cute kids and one handsome husband makes it about one million times better.  Logan is so excited this year, and wakes me up every morning wanting to open up another little door of his advent calendar.  This year he wants Santa to bring him "Talkie Talkies" and Mia just loves staring at the Christmas tree. :)  The next two weeks will be packed with cookie making, gift giving, and serving.  And then it's family time!  Woohoo!  No medical school for three. whole. weeks.  I don't know what I will do!  Here is some of what we have been up to so far:


In her free time, Mia works on her snake charming skills...

Logan copied his name all by himself.  I am one proud momma!

Beautiful, happy girl.


This is what happens when I ask Logan to wash his hands before dinner....


He told me that he just wanted to be Santa Clause.


It snowed!  And hasn't since.  Which I am totally fine with.  But, we did have lots of fun sledding and building snowmen.






Mia slept through our snow adventure.



Giving Frosty kisses


After she woke up I took her outside to get some snow shots.  She wasn't quite sure what to think. :)




I wanted a shot of her beautiful flowing hair, so I took off her beanie.  This is the look she gave me. :)



Logan pretending to be Iron Man.  If you look closely you can see the cheerio he stuck to the palm of his hand.  


Just because she's cute


Logan was playing in the dress up box, and came dancing into the living room like this.  I asked him what he was doing, and he told me that he was, " a mommy lizard" and that he needed to "exercise his five senses."  Then he shot me with his spiderwebs and ran out.  I guess I should just be glad he wasn't pretending to be a princess?

Great Grandpa Poulsen and Mia


Logan and Aunt Kassi in the back of Grandpa's truck getting our Christmas Tree.  Grandma gave him a candy cane...


Our cute mini Christmas tree!

Logan decorating



One corner, about Logan height, was very decorated. :)


We checked out the ZCMI candy windows.  So glad they are back!


Daddy got to come with us!


Then we walked on over to temple square to check out the lights.



Mia and the lights


Us :)


She won't technically be 5 months for two more days, but Ryley was home to control the boy the other day, so I took some pictures then.  


Love this lady





Mia rolls over!  A lot.  I have it on video somewhere... 


Logan playing the fishing game at the Festival of Trees


No one can make this little girl laugh like her brother can.


Mia's first kind of solid-food dinner.  She did so well!
