Christmas Christmas Christmas!!




My OCD-self has been so busy trying to take Christmas decor down and organize my house to fit all the new toys/goodies, that I am just now getting the chance to load photos from our Christmas festivities. Without further anticipation....here you go! :)




Our trip to Santa-land!


The only snow I can handle....the soap-bubble-machine-kind!




Our best attempt at a photo of the three of us (in Santa's chair while he was on a break!).




Trying to kill time while we patiently waited in line for the train ride. We decided to practice body parts on Santa. You do what you have to do to keep a toddler standing still and quiet!


"Connor....where's Santa's nose?!"




Precious hugs for Santa :)




Still practicing body parts while waiting in line...


Connor....where are your ears?!"




Christmas Eve--the fam :)




Us kids :)




The Sherms :)




Not sure how I managed a photo of the adult table and not the kid table...but here's the adult table!




After family time, we were headed over to hang with some friends for their Christmas Eve festivities. Connor is the youngest of a group of about 7 kids, but he keeps up with them really well! He loves trying out new toys and hanging with the 'big kids'.




This toy was AWESOME and kept Connor very content...all up until he made one swift move and the tower came crumbling down. It took three adult attempts and my determination of about 15 minutes before I could get it back together & functional again!




I caught Connor riding Taylor's pretty pink princess chair & wearing her cowboy hat...saying "yee haaaaw!" Oh I love him! :)
After we got home, Matt & Connor had fun watching Santa on his phone while I got settled in before bedtime.
Off to bed Connor went....and Santa came thereafter!
Here are the goodies Santa delivered for one good little boy.
Mr. big boy climbed out of his bed Christmas morning to discover the wonderful land of new toys in our living room.
Checking out Santa goodies with Mom :)
Connor's latest fave--chowing down on frozen pancakes and waffles....that's right....he prefers them frozen!!!! Mmmm!
It didn't take Connor long before he discovered his Elf on the Shelf's new hiding spot :)
Ho Ho Ho!
We were then off to Nana & Papa's for more Christmas fun! First stop--the rock bed in the back yard. Connor finally wised up and found that it was WAY easier to just sit in the rocks & launch them conveniently from that area instead of pulling them out one by one.
We rummaged through our stockings...
where Connor found a cool new FSU hat just his size :)
Auntie Nicole captured shots of our little model...

We snapped a very successful family photo!

Cuddle love for a few of Connor's favorite ladies!
Nana/Connor love
Gift time...
One of Connor's favorite gifts this year...

Just relaxin'
Going for a cruise on his new wheels with Papa

So much fun can wear a kid out...
Thanks to all that celebrated Christmas with us!
Can't believe it has come & gone already!
