Blog Newbie

Ok so I finally broke down and started a blog. Now, just to find the time to post to it! It seems like everyone is doing it so guess who decides to jump on the band wagon!! Any way now that Christmas is over hopefully I can find the time to keep you updated with our family.

This year was Braxton's very first Christmas. We have a really big family so we have been non stop since 2 weeks ago basically. First we had Christmas snacks at my Pop's sister's house, we left there and drove over to Jonathan's dad's house and opened presents. Boy did Braxton get too much but he had a ball. If he had only known what was coming in the next couple of days! My friend Vanda and cousin Rachel came over and we made Christmas goodies while Braxton played in his fort I made for him under the table (he is crawling now, so i wanted him to be in view).


So anyway he played with his new toys from Paw Paw Randy while we baked. Christmas Eve we always go to my Granny's house for supper and to open presents. While eating supper we found BRAXTONS FIRST TOOTH!! Braxton did not have a good nap that day so in the middle of opening presents he passed smooth out , only later to awaken and get back in the mood. We left there and ventured home to set out our first cookies for Santa. Santa came and left a huge pile at our house and ate his cookies. Although Braxton didn't want to get up, we got him up around 8:00 and opened presents from Santa and then had Christmas with his Gran. We then went to my Aunts house for Christmas breakfast (fam. tradition). We left there and went home and got dressed and went to Jonathan's Baw Baw for lunch and then it was to my moms for more presents and then to my Granny's again for left overs!! WHEW!! Are you tired yet? Anyway Braxton's first Christmas was very exciting and tiring all at the same time, and I don't believe he will ever play with all of his toys he received. I hope everyone had a great Christmas like us and is recuperating just fine.
