Christmas with Ben's family

On the Saturday after Christmas we celebrated with Ben's family. We had a great day and Kyle had fun playing with Marti and DeDe and Little Pa.

For Christmas, Kyle got a pair of GA boots. He was SO excited and had to put them on immediately. As you can see he was trying very hard to get his tennis shoes off so he could get the boots on. :-)

He also received a CD player with microphones. He enjoyed that day yelling into the microphones but now he has actually started singing his songs into the microphone that you can understand now. Thank goodness!


Marti received a really neat digital camera! Marti and Kyle took turns taking pictures with Little Pa!




Christmas Day!

Santa Claus was VERY good to Kyle this year! As you can see Santa brought Kyle just what he was asking for...a diego train track!


It didn't take but a few minutes for Kyle to start playing with the train and all of Diego's animal friends!


Daddy and Kyle with the big and little "Click the Camera's". Yes, Ben put his hat on for Christmas morning! :-)


Meme is watching Kyle play on his Sit n Spin. I remember this toy when I was a kid and it was SO much fun. Kyle really hasn't gotten into it as much as I thought he would have. However, I will give him time....it may be his favorite toy one day soon!

GaGa gave Kyle a super cape! Kyle is now SUPER KYLE!!! He loves this cape and wears it around the house all of the time!

Christmas Eve

Below are a few pictures from Christmas Eve when we went to Ben's grandparents home.

Below is Little Pa and Uncle Jonathan helping Kyle open his Christmas present.


Kyle and Marti found some red beads and then Kyle was going to play jump rope....however I don't think he knows how to jump rope. He just thought it was hilarious when they would throw the beads over his head.


Marti and Kyle BOTH getting on Little Pa's back! :-)

Getting Ready for Santa

Kyle has been waiting SO long for Santa that I actually wanted him to know that it was finally time for Santa to come we made a HUGE deal about it. We kicked off Christmas Eve morning by making Gingerbread man cookies for Santa Claus. The cookies turned out SO cute! Ben and I both decorated and we let Kyle make his own cookies. LOOK at how any sprinkles he used! Oh well it was Christmas and he was having a good time. That is all that mattered! :-)

He got the hang of using the icing and iced some too. However we ended up spreading his icing out on his cookies because he wanted to add sprinkles to everything.
After nap time, we all got dressed to go to Swainsboro for Christmas with Ben's grandparents. We went outside for Kyle to spread the "magic reindeer food" for Santa's reindeer. I knew it would be too late and too cold for us to be outside after we got home so we did it a little early.

Kyle REALLY got into throwing it everywhere! :-)


After we got home from Swainsboro, we got Kyle ready for bed and then told him that it was time to hang the special Santa Key on the front door so Santa can come inside. (How else is Santa suppose to come in since we do not have a chimney!?!?)


Then Ben and Kyle picked out gingerbread cookies for Santa.


And Kyle got Santa some milk.....


And now he is all ready for Santa Claus to come see him!

Isn't this picture SO sweet!?!

Nannie and Pa's Christmas

On Sunday December 20 we went to Swainsboro for Ben's grandparents Christmas. Kyle had a great time playing with Marti.
DeeDee and Little Pa gave Kyle and Marti a "Stomp" game with numbers and music for them to play with. I think Kyle had more fun stomping it as hard as he could and watching all the numbers falling out.

Kyle being silly with Marti's basket. Everything has to be a hat with him!
Playing with the Thomas the Train set that The Murray's gave him.
