Christmas 2009

We had a great Holiday season this year! Santa was very good to the girls along with all the Grandparents. We all caught a bug in the New Year but nothing major. We are still waiting to hear on our plans for the next stage of our business. We feel so blessed that in this economy we can even be thinking about expanding our business. We have such great support in this small community it has been amazing. Lindsey is growing like a weed and is trying to talk so much more. She tries to say book, bread, kitty, Maya, Momma, Daddy, Grandma and Grandpa, football (one of her favorites), the list goes on! Her favorite song right now is the theme song to World Word! She is very interested in potty training but hasn't put it together yet. She loves her sister and playing with her! They have a really strong bond.

Maya is doing well also, her vocabulary amazes me each day. She now is asking more questions like "what is the plant that is green and has poky things all over it? I think it is called a canvas?" She meant Cactus I had no idea she even knew what a cactus was! We are all well and I hope all your Holidays went well. Here are some pics of my beauty's (Josiah's included in that:))

We started a new tradition that we open up Christmas PJ's on Christmas Eve. On Christmas morning we open up Santa gifts in our new PJ's! The kids loved it!

Santa gave Maya and Grandpa a new automatic pencil sharpener. Now Grandpa doesn't have to crank his wrist trying to sharpen the colored pencils!

Lindsey loved to rip the paper off! We were lucky that Grandma Hart, Grandpa Hart, Mary and Mike could all be at our house for Santa gifts!

Lindsey in her new car, she couldn't wait so she got in anyway.

Maya in her new crown that she decorated all by herself!

Grandma Webers Christmas we went right to her place on Christmas day. Maya is so excited to open gifts!

Playing by the gifts! Grandma has a wood burning stove so it was hot in her house, that is why the girls are practically naked!

Grandpa Groth's Christmas, we went to Madison and went out to Indian twice!! Josiah and I were in HEAVEN! Thanks Grandpa Groth!

We also visited the Children's Museum! The kids really liked it but it is still not as cool as the Eau Claire one.

Who's having more fun, Maya or Daddy?

Uncle you are silly too it must run in the family

Milking cows, Maya loved this to bad they didn't actually milk!

Digging for dinosaurs!

Hart Christmas was celebrated over New Years! We had a really great time including game play which has not happened in a year or more! Again with the lips, it must be his new pose!

My sister was dying for a Simon and her husband found one!
