Christmas Eve

We spent Christmas Eve with my family. We had everyone except Luke, who's serving a mission in D.C. We had a house full...full of babies!!! It kept things interesting and there never was a dull moment. We had a good party!

Can't get enough of these two monkeys.

Tucker Christmas

We celebrated Christmas early with Shane's fam & had a great time. Tom & Annette spoiled everyone with the Nintendo Wii...SO FUN! They always do too much & this year was no exception. Here are just a few pics of our first Christmas celebration.

Party Time

We've been enjoying the annual Christmas parties. Here are just a few pictures from the most recent and infamous Ward Christmas Party!
First time with the Jolly Old Man! No tears were shed=SUCCESS!!!

Santa's little helper...how cute is she?

The two little identical twin girls in our ward...almost exactly a year older than the boys. They were the cutest reindeer ever!




Temple Lights

To kick off the Christmas season, we headed to Salt Lake to see the lights on Temple Square with all of Shane's fam. I hadn't been back to see the lights for awhile. It was beautiful, as always. Thanks for a great weekend.
The whole fam!

All bundled up! Don't they look thrilled???





The babes. Doesn't Carson remind you of the boy on "Christmas Story?" "Ralphy (in an extra whiny voice) I can't put my arms down!"

What's Old Is New

So last year, I didn't decorate much because of my bedrest prior to the boys' birth and lack of energy afterward so this year it was extra fun to pull out my Christmas stuff. It became brand new to me all over again. I shop a lot after the holidays so there was some stuff that I hadn't even used yet. Here's a little of what I was able to do this year. Tis the Season!!!

I got a cheap smaller tree to go up on the end table this year due to the 4 extra hands & 20 chubby fingers to help me out this year.

A Visit to the Doc

We took the boys in for their one year check up today. They haven't been in since their 6 month visit, so I was anxious to talk to their Doctor. They are both doing really well...right on track! Here are their recent stats:

Carson: 20.6 lbs. (12.6 %tile)
29 inches (25.7 %tile)

Cade: 18.4 lbs. (2.6 %tile)
28 inches (5.5 %tile)

They are staying true to their own growth curves. Poor Cade is such a small little guy. Carson isn't a big guy himself, but he always seems huge next to Cade! Anyone heard much about growth hormones??!! :) They did really well and I'm so grateful for healthy, happy boys.

Just for the Record...

TEETHING SCORE:

CARSON: Staying steady with a whopping TWO!
CADE: On the move with FIVE!

Isn't it just SO exciting?!?! Pretty intense, I know!
