Christmas is over and it's time to take down the massively dead tree. We had a great week though, and it was even better that we had family come for Christmas. My parents came on the 18th and we had such a great time. First of all on the 21st, my sweet pie lost his first tooth! After weeks and weeks of working this baby over and over, I got a tissue and barely pulled and out she came!! Mason didn't even know I had pulled it out until I opened my hand. He was excited about it of course and then we lost it, found it again, lost it, and found it again. The tooth fairy leaves blue suckers and one dollar I'm told. She didn't disappoint and I had one happy boy the next day.
Tuesday was a day for trimming hair. Quiet kids+ door shut= Nat's bangs and curls around her face cut off. And a nice layer in the back. I can just hear the conversation,
Nat "I don't like my curls around my head."
Mason "Here Natalie, I'll cut them off for you."
Nat "O.k."
So here is a bangless, no curls, Missy Moo. Luckily she is still the cutest thing. And she's super cute in this dress from China Gamma Sue brought back with her. Aaahh Nat I love you. I wish you would stay four forever.
And then Christmas Eve. We've never spent one by ourselves in Washington, so we had no traditions. But Mason and Dallin starting getting sick and then Mason started getting really sick. We were up from 9p.m. to 5a.m. every 20 minutes if you know what I mean. Poor bum! Luckily and very thankfully, my mom and I had wrapped everything the night before. Nat was the first one up and she was all but beside herself with Santa's deposits. We opened presents and Mason went back to bed for 3 hours and then opened the rest of his. He was really tired. It was a great day though and I am grateful for my parents help that day. Because Tyler got sick that morning as well. I was mostly thankful that we were at our own house, not driving home in a blizzard and throwing up like last year. Honestly it was massive bad last year. Anyway, Santa was very kind to the kids as were grandma's and grandpa's.
But my parents have left now, everyone is healthy, and I am this happy that school is just one short week away from starting again!

I love reading your blog Becky, I am Tylers cousin, and I have met you once. We played games with Sue and Dale on Christmas eve and I think Sue was missing you. She kept saying how fun it is to play games with you guys. Maybe some day we can all do that. ANyway, I think you're so funny, keep up the good work. Say Hi to Tyler for me. :)
I love Natalie's dress and it's a good thing she's so darn cute she can pull off her own haircut.
Sounds like you guys have rough Christmas'. Maybe you should all ask Santa next year for good health.
Wow, what a crazy time you guys had. Depsite being sick, it always turns out well and I am so glad your Christmas was great!
I hate sickness at Christmas. That should be illegal. But I have to say, could that Nat possibly have a cuter grin? She is just a doll!
Glad you had a merry Christmas!
