Sorry we gave you pink eye Grandma! We love you!

Christmas 2009

Christmas was wonderful at our house, minus me getting sicking and throwing up that morning. Both of our families came to visit, and we even got to talk to Daren! He sounds so mature to me. I can't wait until next year when he'll be here for the Holidays. Koen of course got Diesel 10 from Santa. Kai got a lion toy with balls from Santa. They of course, got spoiled by all their aunts and uncles and got lots of other cool things. Koen got a train that he absolutely loves from his aunt Gaylynn. It's even remote controlled.

Santa's Cookies

Koen made cookies for Santa today, and I sure hope he likes sprinkles!

Christmas Gingerbread House

Last night I finally got around to doing this gingerbread house with Koen. I've had it for like 2 weeks, but then got busy with school, and sick. For my sanity it was hidden, though. He was so excited when I pulled it out. I think he ate more candy than he actually put on it, but that's how these things usually go.

We scheduled the c-section today! It is on Feb. 11, 2010. So about 9 weeks and the boys will have a baby sister.

Our Tree

Here is the tree this year. Its already been so much fun keeping Kai out of it! He and Koen have fights about whether or not the lights should stay plugged in.

Talking with Santa

While at my mom's for Thanksgiving Koen got to see Santa. The day after Christmas Santa turns the lights on in the park, and talks to all the kids who line up to request presents. Koen has never talked to Santa in the past, he cries, but not this year. He was so excited he could hardly hold still in line. He wanted to tell Santa to get him Diesel 10 (a train car) for Christmas. When it was his turn he ran up there all by himself! He was so proud and excited when he was done. I was afraid he'd cry again, but he must be getting a little more confident as time goes on.
