Uh Uh Ohhhh....

Olivia is now saying "uh ohhh". She definitely has her own version. She says uh twice and then a drawn out ohhhhh. It is the cutest thing!!
She had a major uh oh one night. She got into Lilly's water bowl and had THE best time.

Christmas Morning

We had a magical Christmas morning at home with just us and Olivia. It was fun to see Olivia's face when she saw all of her toys even though she didn't get the whole concept. Christmas is much more fun now with a little one to share it with. She must have been a good little girl because Santa may have gone a little over board.

After playing with all the toys Santa brought we headed to Memphis to spend the rest of the holiday with my family. We had dinner with extended family that night and then opened gifts with my parents, brother, sister and nephews that night. A lot of excitement for one day. We were all POOPED.
SANTA CAME!!
Playing...
Can you tell she just woke up??

Patty Cake....!
I was really surprised that she wanted to play with ALL her toys.
Can you tell this picture wasn't taken with Hays' fancy camera? My camera is a lot worse than I thought.
Pooped out after 3 days of going, going, and going some more.

Christmas Eve

Both mine and Hays' family have big Christmas traditions on Christmas Eve so the first year we were married we flipped a coin to see where we were going for Christmas Eve and have switched back and forth every year since. This has worked for us so far. We will see how much longer we do this with Olivia. I have a feeling I will be doing some major compromising when she can grasp the whole concept of Santa Claus.

This year we were in Jackson with Hays' family for Christmas Eve and traveled to Memphis to be with my family on Christmas morning. It was special to have Olivia's first Christmas at home. We went to Hays' aunts house to have dinner after going to our church for the Christmas Eve service. Olivia was a little tuckered out at the end of the night to say the very least.

"Excuse me....where did the presents go???"

Cousins

Olivia liked the tissue paper more than her actual gifts...typical.

Christmas Eve Eve

Our Christmas festivities began on Christmas Eve Eve this year. We opened presents and had dinner with Hays' family the day before Christmas Eve. Wil Franklin and Olivia got so many presents from everyone. They are two very blessed little children.
The little girl having an appetizer of yogurt bites before the festivities begin (doesn't that sound delicious).
Aunt June is here visiting from Austrailia.
About to open presents. Olivia had an oopsie in her festive dress so she had to wear pj's.
ALL the presents....my goodness!!
