The Final Christmas... The Morris Family Christmas!

It is all over, we have had five Christmas' this year and it all ended at our house with the Morris Family. Aunt Sherri got the girls pretty white rocking chairs and Uncle Kevin and Aunt Lori got them handmade dolls! What a treat! We had a great time seeing every bit of our family this year, but I for one am glad it is over!

Christmas Day in Brentwood

Santa came! Amelia must have been a good little girl this year because Santa treated her very well. It must have taken him hours to put all those toys together! We had a great day at Grandma and Grandpa's. Uncle Jonathan, Aunt Jodi, Daniel and Miriam came over to play and open gifts. We had a fun filled day of children pooping in their pants and falling down stairs. By the end of the day Miriam fell half way down the stairs, Amelia ran into the dinning room table and busted her lip and nose, Daniel ran into a chair, and they all pooped in their pants!

Christmas Eve and Santa's Treats

On Christmas eve we left some treats for Santa before going to bed. Amelia gave all her pacifiers to the baby raindeer and we have not seen them since! We are very happy to be rid of them but now we have a thumb sucker!

Birmingham Christmas

We went through Birmingham on the way to Nashville as we do every year. We stopped at Aunt Susie's first and had a little lunch and then made our way to Aunt Gingers house for the Baughn Family Christmas. Granny Baughn has 12 great grandchildren with number 13 and 14 on the way. Next year we should just have it at a playground!

Christmas in Meridian

We went to Meridian for Aunt Cheryl's Annual Christmas Party. Amelia was very entertaining, to say she had a sugar rush is an understatement! We spent at least 20 minutes on the stairs while she posed for the camera. She kept saying she wanted to "cheese again". She did slow down enough to sit with Mama Linny for awhile and talk. We also got to see Glen's cousin Todd and his wife Leanne. Our due dates are only 2 days apart.

Christmas with Aunt Carol Anne

We had a great time at the Kennedy's this year. We let the kids, Banks and Amelia, open there Christmas presents and had some very tasty desserts!

Amelia and Santa

This was our experience with Santa this year. I thought for sure she would be happy to see him because she had been talking about it for weeks!

Yeah! Santa! I Love Santa!

I lied, I lied, take me back!

Santa.... I don't like it, I don't like Santa!

December Snow

Glen took Amelia outside for her first snow while I was Christmas shopping. She seemed to be curious at the cold white powder.

High Heels, Bows and Tiaras

After Glen assisted the girls with the bows and tiaras they went into Amelia's room a picked out matching shoes, themselves! I was very impressed with their skills at color coordination!

Mama Linny's House

On our way back from Birmingham we stopped in Meridian to see Mama Linny and Aunt Lynn. Glen had some repairs to do to her house so Amelia decided to help. In case you were wondering, yes, she really is drilling the brick wall!

Thanksgiving 2009

On Saturday after Thanksgiving we traveled to Birmingham to see Granny Baughn. We had a great Thanksgiving Lunch and got to visit with a lot of family we haven't seen in a while. Amelia had a great time playing with all her cousins, some of which she has never met!

The First Hair Cut... oops!

After two years we finally decided to get rid of the curly mullet that Amelia has acquired. Because Glen cuts his own hair I thought him the best one for the job, but I was mistaken. I tried to fix the damage but we have been left with a shorter than desired bob! It looks cute, but we will have to for go pigtails for awhile.

Happy Birthday Amelia!

We celebrated Amelia's 2nd Birthday Party with some family and close friends. Amelia loved blowing out her candle and of coarse opening her presents! The kids had fun playing outside, the weather was beautiful and they loved pulling each other in the wagon. Thanks to everyone for celebrating this special day with us!

Birthday Breakfast

Yippi! Spaghetti!!

Amelia is usually a clean eater but for some reason she really got into her spaghetti tonight.

Tricks and Treats

Amelia had a great time trick-o-treating this year. We started off the night with our neighbors, the Barkers, and their two kids Emily and Ethan. We joined up with a little hay ride around the neighborhood but quickly retreated to our backdoor neighbors golf cart because our little ones were slowing down the pace. Amelia quickly caught on to the rules of trick-o-treat and even had her first taste of real Candy! She wasn't even afraid of the spooky decorations or costumes we encountered. After we had our fill of treats and cold weather, we headed over to visit with Cousins Hollynn and Bella for pictures and yummy chili. Hollynn was Snow White and Bella was a butterfly. And if you didn't guess yet, Amelia was a peacock!
