Christmas and Snow

These are kind of old, but I wanted to make our Christmas post and snow post anyway.

Since I was due with Weston around Christmas, we decided not to go too far, but still went up to my parents for Christmas since it is only an hour away.  It was a good thing too, because as you all know, that is where we ended up having Weston.  

This December was filled with snow too, so Christmas was even more special because of it.  We got two feet down in Olympia and Kallen loved every moment of it.  Every day, he would say "snow, snow" over and over until we would bundle him all up and take him out.  He wouldn't
 actually play in the snow, but he loved taking walks out in it.

This picture makes me laugh, because he looks so miserable...but he actually wasn't.  He locd being out there the whole time...even when he got soaked through and got cold from being out in the snow, he never wanted to come in and he would cry anytime we made him come inside. He just loves the white stuff.  In fact, even though the snow is all gone now, he still mentions it to me.These are from Christmas.  The pictures aren't great, but they do show the snow outside and all the presents we got.  I loved that it was snowing on Christmas.  We don't get that a lot up here in Washington and it made it so much fun.
Kallen got a rocking chair from Grandma and Grandpa and he loved finding it on Christmas morning.  It was pretty much the only gift he paid any attention to that morning.  I was hoping that this year Kallen would enjoy getting his presents more...however, that still was a bust. His favorite thing to do was play with the ribbons from all the gifts.  What a silly kid.  I'm hoping next year he will enjoy what is in the ribbons and paper and not just the packaging.
