Christmas 2010

Ok. Wow! Yes..."better late than never" is probably my most favorite saying when it comes to my blog :) I've been pretty busy with the new job and it seems like I have very little time with my men now that I am gone during the day so I don't even get on the computer until after Jr. goes to bed if I get on at all. I will try to be better...promise :)

So we had 6 Christmases...yes that was not a type-o...six!

We started at Aunt Martha's on the 18th...

All the little kids in front of the tree...Jaxin, Cass, Xavier, and a step cousin who I only see once a year and cannot for the life of me think of his name right now :/





Jaxin got a sweet lookin' shark robe!!



And he just adored his cousin Jarrett :)



With his Papa Crabber...



Aaaand he thought it would be fun to get in the gift bag...



which



was



shortly



destroyed!!



Three generations...



The Crabtree clan :)



Sissies :)






Great Aunt Wilma with her great nephews...












Then we went to Grandma and Grandpa Baker's house on Christmas Eve!! Jaxin just loves it when the boys get out the guitar...






Could not. believe. ALL. the presents under the tree!!! They seriously took up half the living room...



Auntie Amy and Dillion...






Waitin' in the car to attempt the trip to Granite City for the Baker Christmas...we made it to Lincoln then turned around and stopped at Wal-Mart to grab a ham for dinner at Grandma and Grandpa Baker's house...in a matter of 3 hours we had accumulated about 4 inches of snow with more to come for the rest of the evening!! No way were we goin' to not get stranded in Granite...which is by St. Louis!! Don't worry, our baby was safe and secure in his seat before we took off :)






Christmas morning was great!! Mommy and Daddy got up before Jaxin so we decided to open a couple presents just the two of us before Bubba got up and we started in on all of his new stuff!!









My poor baby had his first run in with allergies! His poor little eyes were crusted shut on Christmas morning so before he could actually see what Santa had brought him, we had to get a warm wash cloth to get rid of the crust...poor baby!!
























Our next stop was to Nan's house for Christmas with Mom!! We took scraps to wrap her present so she had one piece of every kind of Christmas wrapping paper we had with a matching bow for each :)















Then we went to Papa Crabber's for the Crabtree Christmas...my poor baby's eyes just kept getting worse!! Daddy did run to Walgreens for Infant Benedryl which helped substantially!!






Auntie Cass reading Bubba his new book :)









Auntie Cass was being a "mushroom" with her beanbag!









Our final stop was back to Nan's Sunday after church because Uncle Mikey had his girls so we then had the Turner Christmas!









We had such an amazing Christmas because we got to spend it with all of our families and we wouldn't have it any other way--minus the crusted, purple eyes, and runny nose of our little man!!!
