Christmas Time Again

So, I failed at posting when I said I would, but here I am. At least its happening, right?

It has been such a busy month for us, and it doesn't look like it will be calming down any time soon. But busy is good. We did Christmas early this year with Nate's parents, since they were going to the cabin in Bear Lake with the rest of the family and we couldn't make it. We were so sad that we didn't get to see everyone, but we made the best of it at home. Landon was excited for presents, but once he opened one that he liked and started to play with, he had no interest in opening any more and it was literally like pulling teeth to get him to open another. On our early Christmas, it was his Lightning McQueen and Tow Mater toys. He loves those things!

 Daddy couldn't open his cars fast enough!

 Big Cheese!

 Haha check out that face! Someone must have asked to play with his toys...



Then, Christmas morning we spent at home, just the three of us. And, although it was quiet, it was really nice. The night before, Landon had developed a cough and a runny nose, and his nebulizer wasn't helping. We were actually up most of the night with him on the 24th. He was waking up with a fever and we were so scared at once point we were preparing to go to the hospital. But, with the help of Ibuprophen and plenty of water, we made it through the night and he was a happy camper the next day. His favorite toys of the morning were probably his Batman and Joker cars (Thanks Auntie Breecia!) or his new Woody doll (Thanks Auntie Syd!)

 Batman and Joker cars. He was so excited!

 He had to take a break to play with them.

 Woody!

 Haha so excited to play with Woody!

 Presents with Daddy

 We got him a lil play shaving kit, so Daddy had to take a break from making us breakfast to show his boy how its done! Too bad he ended up shaving his legs instead... :)
Cheeeeeese!

Then, after breakfast and a quick clean up, we made our way over to my parent's house. Unfortunately, Landon was so fixated on Batman that he didn't care to open any of his presents on his own. So, I had the fun for him. He did, however, have the time to play with his present from Auntie Jenn, which was a race track with Lightning McQueen and Francesco. He had a blast with that one, and everything else was out of mind.

 Just Batman, wanting nothing to do with the rest of us, no matter how much fun we were having.

 Gran and Pop got him Elefun, which he did have some excitement for!


We even got to go outside for a bit in his new Spiderman boots, which light up by the way.

We had a great Christmas this year. And even though we missed seeing all of our family, we could not have asked for a better weekend, or a happier little boy. 

Hope everyone is having a great new year so far, and I'll (hopefully) post again next week. My little man turns TWO on Wednesday. Can you believe it?!
