Elizabeth had her first real time out today. She had a book and was reading quitely...Kyle came along and wanted the book....he reached across her to take it and they were tugging at it a few seconds when Kyle let out a cry. She had bitten him on the arm...and left teeth marks! So, I put her in time out......she just sat quietly and then told Kyle she was sorry...I guess she has seen him demonstrate this numerous times! Kyle said, "thats ok, Liz-bef...just don't eat me again!".......is it bad that I sort of thought the whole thing was cute?
Kyle and I had a good time decorating our house for Christmas today. We talked about the Christmas story, and I was so proud that he could tell me the important details! We decorated most of the house while Elizabeth was asleep. When we got her up, we took her downstairs to see the house and Kyle said "look what we did for Jesus' birthday!
She was soooo cute...just like a calm little girl. She just slowly walked around and looked at everything with a sweet smile!
The "Rudolph" family
Our little tree! Dave and I got this tree the first Christmas we were married. We got it at Meijer for our one bedroom apt!....we are waiting until we get our "real" house to upgrade.
Kyle looked at the star and said "mommy, that looks just like the star that those guys saw in the sky to find baby Jesus"....later somehow the star was broken.....I am sure it has nothing to do with my little helper!...nothing a little tape couldn't fix!
Our basket of Christmas books...and of course the very special rocking chairs from PaPa and Grandma Carol. They have given each of the grandchildren a chair on their first Christmas
Elizabeth looked at the stockings, pointed and said, "shoes?, shoes?"
My helper.....and yes, he was in his undies the whole time!...didn't get dressed in actual clothes until about 12.....
Kyle did a great job at putting the fragile ornaments up high and spacing them out pretty well....now I know why mom used to rearrange the ornaments after we were done helping out!
Kyle's new pillow case....you color it! Of course it has sports balls on it!

This isn't the best picture...but it will do. I took the kids to visit Santa a few days ago....they were both very excited to see him from a distance...Elizabeth sat on his lap about 10 seconds before crying....Kyle actually sat for a while and talked to Santa.....Santa was very patient and told Kyle how much he enjoyed his cookies from last year. We didn't get a picture.....yet
