Merry Christmas to your family from ours. Paul, Heather, Andrew and Madison. 

Madison working on her push ups and crawling routine.. 

Jane Fonda watch out... 

One last picture to end the night with. These are some of the last roses that bloomed in November on my rose bush. They are the most beautiful roses and those that have smelled them will tell you the smell is out of this world when they bloom out. So take time to smell the roses even in December.... 

Well lets just say that the first Santa must have had a better vibe then this Santa b/c Madison went to crying and screaming when placed on his lap so in went the calmer and she was okay as long as Santa did not look directly at her or talk directly to her. As for her cousin Hannah we had to go almost totally in the other room with her b/c she was going to have nothing to do with Santa and she would not calm down, but it did not last long when she found her Uncle Paul she was just fine. She came home to stay with us that night and we had a blast... 

He was pumped to see Santa there and when Santa asked him what he wanted for Christmas his reply this time was a "motorcycle" it changes from different Santa's and different days. And no he is not getting a motorcycle as long as he is living with Mom as of right now.. 

Pose for daddy shot..this is how he wore the headband all weekend except he made sure his hair and his ears were sticking way out.. 

This part had the crowd laughing and if you know Andrew at all you will know that this bothered him b/c you are not to laugh at people that hurts thier feelings. So we had a little talk about laughing and the differences in them that night and not sure he understands but hey he is only 4 right?? 

Andrew's favorite part besides showing his muscles, the 5 hula hoops.. 

Another picture of our star... 

Kinda remind you of a movie they are playing right now?? 

Another one of the boys showing off thier muscles during the song. The two boys next to Andrew have been with him in since they were all 6 weeks old at his daycare, my how they grow up so fast... 

Andrew's class preformed The 12 days of Santa's gym class and it was really really cute they each got to keep their Santa Gym shirt, headband and wrist bands. And if you ask anyone that saw him this weekend he slept with all items on except the shirt due to it was dirty and had to be washed. He loved this and did so good up there this is the first time in four years that he preformed this well and did not cry for either of us when we left him in his class...we were so proud of him.. 

One more shot of our happy lil angel after she got off stage she was not happy until she got her costume off and her bottle and me.. 

Here is Madison on stage and she is letting everyone even her teacher know that she has had enough of the lights and costume and not feeling real well she was crying and carrying along with most of her class up there.. 

Madison attended and preformed her first daycare Chrismas play last Friday night. And yes, she was choosen to be the angel in her class along with another little girl and this shot is before she went into her other costume "devil" and started crying. Holding her is Ms. Molly who has been at the daycare when Andrew first started there and we love her and so do the kiddos..You have to admit she does make a darn adorable angel...  

Hannah was not so excited to see Santa but after a litte coxing and telling her that Andrew and Maddie would be with her she stood in front of them just far enough from Santa that she was okay so we could snap this picture and then she bolted :) 

Andrew and Maddie got to sit on Santa's lap that night at Hannah's play and they both were really excited. 

This is how you find the two of them most the time wrestling around on the floor. I swear she is going to be the toughest girl alive after putting up with her big brother. She just loves this and will giggle and pull hair and ears and you name it. Then when she has had enough she cries and he stops and then she is going back at him again. 

We attended Hannah's Christmas program on Monday night her class sang a couple of songs and then she bolted for her Paul, Andrew and Maddie that she was very excited to see..She looked so cute in her Christmas dress.. 

Here she is trying to get out of it as Andrew is pushing her around and around as fast as he could. 

We found out the other night that Maddie fits in big brother's dump truck just like he did when he was a baby and so he had a blast pushing her around but as soon as the truck stopped she would push herself out of it. 

I want to take a picture Mommy... 

Here is half the class it was a really cute play they did before Thanksgiving. 

Here is the little pilgrim man saying his part and trying to sit still at his first pre k play.
