Sky with Grandpa Hansen

We had a wonderful holiday up at Caberfae...a big thank you to both of our families for allowing us to break past traditions and begin new ones:) Grandpa Hansen came and celebrated with us on Christmas Eve and was there for Santa presents and stockings in the morning. Then Christmas afternoon we had the pleasure of having Grandpa Mueller, Aunt Ali and Uncle Cam. Then Christmas evening we up the road through the woods and down the hill to Grandma & Grandpa Frye's, where we celebrated with most of the Winquist Clan. (we missed you Heidi, ,Martin, & Parker).
Skylar was a trooper through out the day, she was very OVER STIMULATED and only squeezed in one 30 min nap so needless to say as the evening wore on she was a little drained (crawling zombie). She was very funny opening presents, the first one she really got into but was so excited about the plastic Nemo bath toys Santa brought she did not have much interest in other presents!
As usually we had a FANTASTIC time; some great laughs (see post on FAke Lotto Ticket), Incredible food, and many wonderful memories were made! We are very blessed and this time of year is a great time to remember our many wonderful blessings!!

anytime now...

She will be walking, she is so close! She walks around with everything...the other day I was getting ready and looked into the hallway and she was pushing the chair from my desk down the hall. She will let go of furniture and stand but as soon as she realizes she is not holding on she drops to her knees. She will also walk with you just holding onto one of her hands...I think by her 1st birthday she will surely be walking!

like her mom...

She is already totally into phones, guess she is a little like me:)

Happy... & not so much...

funny how things can change in a matter of seconds :D~ She has quite the attitude if she is not getting what she wants!!!

Our beautiful niece-Kailyn Jade
On Sunday we braved the weather and traveled down to Portage for a wonderful afternoon with the Winquist-Frye Clan...Scott & Deb prepared an awesome meal and were gracious enough to let us all hang out for the afternoon (let's just say with 4 under the age of 5 it was a little more kaotic then they are accustomed to:D) As always Ashley & Chelsea were a huge help with the kids.

Tuckered Out...

...a long day can do it to a little one!

Christmas with Grandma Mueller

Today we celebrated Christmas with my mom. We had a very nice time. It was funny to see Skylar's first experience with opening presents, or at least with an audience (she has already unwrapped a couple presents this year but it is always when we are not watching :D)! She was fairly shy about it! It was a great time spent with family!

First Visit to Santa

Today Mom took me to go see Santa, I guess I really did not see what the big fuss is about, some funny looking old guy in a red suit, I don't get it! Mom says I will someday...

Hangin' with Jayce Cooper

Today we met Meghan & Jayce at the mall to do a little christmas shopping...and let Skylar and Jayce see Santa for the first time. They both did great, no tears!
Thanks for meeting us today Meghan & Jayce, it was great to see you!

New Tricks

Our little girl has some new tricks up her sleeve...when we got home from CA, she was very proud to show off. She should up in our bed then proceeded to do something that looks like dancing! We are enjoying her sillyness everyday!

The Aquarium

It was a pretty cool spot, we got to touch sting-rays and sharks...we got there late in the day so we did not see any pf the shows but it was still a cool place to visit!
