Christmas and Pictures!!!

I finally switched out the computers and downloaded 240 pictures that I'd been storing on my camera! So here's a few pics showing what we've been up to in December...

When Mya had a cold she was constantly getting tissues to wipe her nose. One day she decided Elmo had a cold too. She wiped his nose a few times and then decided to wrap him up in the toilet paper. I was busy doing laundry and when I realized how quiet she was I knew she was up to something. This is what I found with little pieces of toilet paper everywhere!!!

We went to the coolest Santa Claus that had real reindeer, and best of all no line!!! We walked right up to him and spent probably 15 minutes just talking and taking pictures.

Mya hated sitting on Santa's lap until his dog came up on the sleigh too. She sat and petted the dog forever. We were surprised she was scared to sit on his lap because that's all Mya would say when we'd say, "You want to see Santa?" she would reply. "Lap!" Every time we ask her to say Santa she says lap, it's too funny...
Petting the reindeer...

I took too many pics of the Durfey family party that I decided to only post two. Here's a shot of me and Mya with my Grandma Durfey.

After dinner and the nativity we have a great big dance. One of the songs was to the limbo. Mya just loved walking under the stick thinking she was so cool. It was a really fun party, except the fact my mom and dad weren't there since she was in the hospital :(

Mya's first gift for her b-day. She was so excited to unwrap it!
She loves the horse we got her :)
Posing with Daddy after they opened their gifts at the Curtis b-day party, where we celebrated 4 birthdays!
Trying to blow-out the candles. She would blow up instead of out so they wouldn't go out. It was pretty funny.

More birthday... We celebrated it with my family on Christmas Eve

Uncle Ren giving the girls a horsey ride :) Mya's shirt is off because she threw up! She acted better afterwards but she threw up 3 more times that night. Thankfully she was just fine for Christmas morning

Christmas morning opening gifts... Once she was done unwrapping one she would say "More!" before she even looked at her gift.

Yes that is a skirt around her head :)

Gotta love the "CHHHEEEESSE!" It's the same smile in every picture!

She loves her slide!
Posing with her bathtub baby...

Her cool easel that she loves to color on!

We finally took her last night to see the lights at Thanksgiving Point. She loved them :)
Christmas was so much fun with her this year. She has become quite the pro at unwrapping presents over the last week. We will be exchanging gifts with my family tonight so Christmas will finally be coming to an end!

I'm glad you had a great Christmas (I hope your mom is doing OK!) and I can't believe our babies are TWO already! Mya is so cute, as always. Love the cheesey smile; at least you can get yours to look at the camera! Krista hated sitting on Santa's lap, but afterwards she did want him to come over to our house for dinner I think.
