Christmas with Muvie and Kristin

After Santa was over with then we did Christmas with Muvie, Kristin and Roger. We knew if we brought the car out first that he would have no interest in anything else. So Auntie Kristin gave lots of gifts but he really loves the farm set. He saw the animals and pointed out his favorite animal...the COW. She also gave him Mickey Mouse outfits and DVD's. Of course he had to watch the DVD's. Then we all opened our presents and then the joy of the day...the cozy coupe fire truck. He has not left this car since we brought it out. He would probably spend the night in it if we let him. He is in and out of it like 100 times. Then he loves pushing it around to the place he exactly wants it. Then he loves to go for rides in it around the dining room into the kitchen back to the den. He will even sit in it to watch Mickey Mouse. This child is in love with his car. Thanks Muvie!

Christmas Day

So I have to break this up in 2 posts because one was Santa and the other one was Christmas with my mom and Kristin. There were a lot of photos and lots of things to share. So Brad and I decided that we would just cover his Santa with a sheet. Nate is not interested at all in unwrapping presents. So when we took it off the first thing he went to was sippy cups. $3 sippy cups. He didn't really care about his activity table. He took the sippy cup behind to the fireplace and played with them for a while. Then later I showed him all the DVD's and Mickey Mouse doll that Mommy and Daddy got him. Now he did love Mickey and put Mickey in the car (that my mom got him) and in the wagon. But all in all the sippy cup was a BIG success. Gotta love it!

Schloemer Christmas

Nate had the best time at my Dad's house because he saw the wagon. He played in it about the whole time we were there. He loves opening and closing the door. Also he got a Rust-eze car which has lots of loud buttons that he loves. This is the first time he has ever been interested on getting on a riding car. The ones we have at home don't have all the fancy loud buttons. Nate got a lot of other things but these are the 2 items that he plays with all the time.

Breedlove Christmas

Breedlove Christmas started our Holiday season on the 23rd. Nate wasn't feeling 100% due to ear infection and very bad upset stomach. That night he was passing such horrible gas that I actually got a picture of the reaction. Thanks Lynnsey! It was very funny! Nate got a cute AU chair from Aunt Rita and Uncle Mike. He was very busy into all the presents on the floor. Also Aunt Rita had a lot of snow globes that Nate loved to play with. Thank goodness we didn't break any! I can't wait for next year with 2 new people added to the family--Chuck and baby #2!

Family Shots after Santa

These were shots we took after Santa of us and grandparents.

Nate and Santa

Nate went to see the real Santa at Phipps today. I didn't know exactly what he would do. Would he cry or would he not really care? Well it turned out he really didn't care. He sat on Santa's lap but all he really wanted to do was get down and explore. He wasn't scared of him at all. He just wanted to do his own thing. The hardest part was getting his picture. He wanted to look at everything else but the camera.
We tried to go to the Pink Pig but the line was insane inside so we decided we would go during the week when Daddy was home for the 2 weeks he is off.
Today was a great day.

Nate and friends

Nate had a few friends come by today to visit. Richard and Betsy were in town and brought Drew and Katie over. Also Kari and Chase came over to join in the fun. Nate absolutely loved Drew. He was so interested in his paci by taking it out and putting it back in. At times he wasn't very gentle. He kept giving hugs to everyone.

Chase and Katie were excited to decorated cookies. They had a great time.

We hope to see them over the Holidays if it can work out.
