I love this one!

Joseph loves Santa Poppy's beard!

 A Wheel!

We celebrated Christmas with Santa on Saturday morning with Joey's family. Santa Poppy came and took a few pictures with the little one. It was a nice morning and by the end of the morning Joseph was scootering around the kitchen! Joseph has grown so much since LAST YEAR with Santa !

Who needs a haircut?

Broke nose

I feel like I'm falling apart these days. On Monday before bathtime with Joseph I was trying to teach him how to pull his pants down. He cannot dress himself or take any of his clothes off himself and i think it's time we teach him. So I was showing him how to grab his pants and pull them down. He was pulling up his shirt and grabbing everything except pulling his pants down. So he finally put his hands on his pants and he squatted down like a frog. I bent down to help him take his pants off and as I bent down he shot up as fast as possible and hit me either with his tooth or his head ( I thought tooth since I'm cut on my nose). It happened so fast that I don't even know what hit me. When he hit me, I saw black and my eyes immediately started watering, I grabbed a tissue and I couldn't move because of the pain. Then of course my nose started bleeding. If your wondering, Joseph cried for about 5 seconds then walked away to play in my closet.
The next day my face and nose hurt SO bad, I'm bruised and a little swollen and at work my nose started bleeding again. I went and talked to the nurse at work who then told me it was probably broke and i needed to go see an ENT!! So I called 4 ENT's and none could fit me in until January and one office did not take my insurance. So I just said forget it I'm not going to a doctor. The pain isn't constant anymore, but anytime I move my face or touch my nose it is very painful. And it hasn't bled since yesterday. I personally don't think it's broke, I don't think my 2 yr old could have broke my nose, but I think it is just badly bruised. So now I get to walk around and talk to patients all day with a yucky nose. And not to mention my co-worker told me my nose looked crooked yesterday, gee thanks, that made me feel better.... I just told her is was already crooked ha! SO if you see me with a messed up nose just know that Joey didn't punch me in the face, my baby did.

Happy Birthday Daddy!

Chocolate Satin Pie

The gifts!

The gift Daddy has been waiting for.

Joseph helping open

Joey said he had a good birthday. Once he got home from work he opened 3 gifts and then we met his parents for dinner. Joey has been talking about a Food Saver for a couple of months now. He really became a little obsessed about it I think :) So I decided to go ahead and get him one for his birthday, he can't wait to use it and had already bought an attachment even though he didn't have the machine yet. She he hooked it up and is ready to try it out. We also got him new jeans and he got 2 shirts and 2 lottery tickets from my parents. We didn't win anything, but it's fun to scratch them. I can't believe my husband is 32, yikes!

My boys

What's Joseph up to?

Sorting beans (Yes beans were ALL over the kitchen floor) Next time this will be an outside activity.

Sleeping in his big boy bed! Ever since putting a full size mattress in his floor, he has been sleeping through the night. It has been wonderful! He loves it!

Walking Gina to go look at Christmas lights in our neighborhood

Can't forget the cars...

He's finally into painting! We painted the leftover pumpkins from our fall decor.

Of course the grasshopper has to watch.

 He really doesn't care much about our Christmas trees. He enjoyed the ornaments more last year. This was the only ornament he tried to hang, only because I told him to so I could get a picture.

Ans he's just up to being cool :)
