So...I am a horrible blogger. We have been having so much fun, and I haven't taken the time for blogging and so when I DO decide to sit down and do a post...I have so many pictures that it turns into CRAZY LONG POST!!! So...bear with me, this is one of those CRAZY LONG POSTS! :) I was very nervous about putting Christmas up with an almost one-year old and it getting totally destroyed...BUT, to my surprise, we made it through the holiday season with no decoration fatalities. :) WHOO-HOO!! We have the Little People Nativity set, and set that up within reach of Kaden, and it kept him totally occupied and away from my other decorations.
He loved going right over to the sofa table, literally crawling right on top and bulldozing the nativity set. It was pretty funny.
Kaden, of course, thought he was HILARIOUS!
We had our ward Christmas party...the girls were super excited to wear their new party outfits, and of course, go up and sing some carols.
And Kaden was very excited to eat....rolls, rolls and more rolls!
Staring contest with dad....I think Kaden won. :)
Christmas eve consisted of yummy food, Wii Disney Karaoke, and of course, setting out cookies and a letter for Santa.
Christmas morning....PLEASE can we come down now?!?!
HE CAME!!!
The girls and their new Barbie scooters from Santa.
Opening their stockings....lots of glitter lotion, lip gloss, stickers, necklaces, rings....a girls' dream come true!
Kaden was NOT so sure of what was going on...and didn't really like being woken up so early!
Brooklyn was a master present opener....she was SO fast and had them open within seconds.
She was SO excited to see that Santa had brought her and Kylee guitars!
After getting used to all the craziness, Kaden was SO funny, he loved all his toys. Especially the Toy Story ride on toy! He loves Buzz!
Dad was just excited that out of all the toys, he only had to put together the Barbie scooters...he HATES putting toys together! :) 
Well, the Sunday before Christmas, we were all sick. Boo. So we took some Christmas Sunday pictures the Sunday AFTER Christmas.
Grandma and Brooklyn...we were so excited to have Grandma and Grandpa here with us for Christmas...even if it was only for a couple days, we love having them here!
Grandpa and Kaden....who was NOT having anything to do with pictures. FUN. :)
See what I mean?!! We tried so hard to get one of all 3 of them...but, with an 11-month old, this is what you get!
Kudos for anyone still reading this! :) Hope everyone had a very Merry Christmas!! We sure did!

LOL at that last picture- funny! Sounds like you had a good Christmas. I'm glad everyone is feeling better! You look great Jaclyn! I am going to have to do a long Christmas blog too. It's amazing how easy we can get behind on blogging this time of year isn't it? Thank you soooo much for including us in your Christmas card list. I loved walking by your cute faces everyday. Merry Christmas & Happy New Year!
Yeah, I need to find the motivation to do an uber-long Christmas blog, too...I loved seeing Kaden's morning pic w/ his hair down, I've never seen it like that! And Jake got the same "Buzz car" as he calls it, and loves it too! Great pics!
Looks like a fun Christmas! I think it was a Toy Story 3 Christmas for lots of families out there! Your Sunday pictures look great. There's no chance of a perfect picture when you've little ones. I have come to accept that! :)
Cute! I love the picture of the girls running around the corner of the stairs looking super excited!
Ok, I think your technology challenged mother-in-law has finally figured out how to post a comment. Or at least I hope this works...I love your blog Jaclyn! You do such a beautiful job with it. I have it as my home page and it is so nice to see all of your smiling faces when I log on. Your Christmas looked wonderful. I do wish we could have been there but, I'm so happy that your mom and dad were there. I'm also grateful that I was able to visit you in November and Robert was able to visit with you in December. We both really enjoyed our visits. The kids looked so cute in their Christmas outfits. You are a beautiful family. Miss you all and love you! Mom/Esther
