Merry Christmas from the Greens!

So I might have forgotten to wish my readers a Merry Christmas 6+ weeks ago!!!!  Since I forgot, let's just do a recap of the festivities.  Since LBH was born, we have decided that we always spend Christmas morning at our house!  My MIL typically comes over that afternoon and I take the kids up to my parents the days that hubby works.  This year was no different.  

We also got to engage in some new activities leading up to Christmas.  This year we rode the local Santa Train - which involved a 30-minute train ride and meeting Santa as he walked through the train.  LBH thoroughly enjoyed meeting Santa this year (very different from the fear he had last year).  Con Man (Mr. Chubbs) was pretty indifferent about the Jolly Elf.  While on the train, everyone sang some Christmas carols....LBH's favorite was Jingle Bells.  After Jingle Bells, the train sang Rudolf the Red Nosed Reindeer - to which LBH proclaimed that was not a Christmas song!!!!



Early December, I realized that I hadn't prepared for Christmas Cards, so I planned a little photo session at my parent's house because they decorate so much more than I do.  I had hoped to capture the boys together in a beanbag chair but a strong-willed 2 year old had other ideas.....


This was our primary picture on our Christmas card!!!!

My chubby little elf didn't really care what I did with photo session but his chubby thighs were uncomfortable in the Bumbo seat!

The Christmas Party at Daycare was a huge success...full of sweet goodies and music time from the kiddos.  Mary had a list of songs the kids were going to sing but LBH had a mind of his own....


Unfortunately this year we didn't make it to the Christmas Eve Service at church.  My mom did send the boys a Christmas Eve present with new pajamas and a book.  I managed to capture the boys before they went to bed.

Santa did a great job visiting us this year!

LBH is in a big superhero phase, especially the Avengers!



He also got a castle with all kinds of features.

After stuffing ourselves and a nap, we headed to the Happy Farm for part 2!  There LBH got more superhero stuff and an awesome baseball tee/pitching machine.



The weekend after Christmas, we headed to my parents' house to celebrate the holidays!  LBH refused to open any presents because he was too busy eating a sucker.  Therefore, Papa and Aunt Rachel opened all his presents for him.

While Rachel was in town, we made a trip to Sky Zone!  It took LBH a while to warm up to the idea but he ended up loving the foam pit.

He REFUSED to jump on the trampolines and if I jumped he told me to be careful if I tried to jump!

All in All it was another fabulous holiday spent with family and friends!!!
