Hello, Santa!

The countdown to Christmas is finally here! Christmas is my favorite time of year and I love sharing that with my kids. We put up our Christmas tree and Sawyer loved helping!
He has the all-important job of putting the star on the top of the tree. He takes his job very seriously!

Of course, he needs help from Daddy to get all the way up there!

Saturday, we took a trip to the mall to see Santa! Savannah got all dressed up in her Christmas gear to meet him.

Sawyer was very excited to see Santa. Although, when he finally did see him, he got a little but shy, and tried to hid from him, which he now tells us he was "just playing hide and seek with Santa", lol. He sat on his lap with no problem and talked to him and told him what he wanted and what he wanted him to bring Savannah. She had no clue what was going on and was totally fine with sitting on Santa's lap. Its hard to get a 3 1/2 year old and a 5 month old to both look at the camera and smile while sitting on Santa's lap, so this was the best we got!

We have some fun Christmas activities coming up, and we cant wait!

Happy Thanksgiving!

Happy Thankgiving from Sawyer and Savannah! We had a great Thanksgiving Day. We hosted Thanksgiving at our house again, and had Nana & Papa Heberlein, Grandma & Grandpa Switzer, Uncle Chris & Uncle Evan at our house to celebrate! I cooked the turkey again and it turned out great! It was my 2nd year in a row to cook the turkey and its a tradition I think we will continue! Here are a few pictures from the day!














We hope you had a great Thanksgiving!

November Fun

November has been a crazy, busy month! Here are LOTS of pics from the last few weeks!
The first weekend of November, Savannah went with Mommy to her dance convention. Savannah's first dance convention!

Of course, she got lots of ooohs and aaaaahs from all the dancer girls and their moms!

She was such a good girl the whole weekend and loved watching all of the dancers!

Now that the weather is a bit cooler, it was time to break out some of our fall clothes! Savannah wore her jeans for the first time!


I love my babies!


Savannah (below) rooting on the Cowboys!


We also got out the bouncer because Savannah is finally big enough for it! Sawyer and Mommy got it all cleaned up and had fun watching Savannah bounce and play!


This used to be Sawyer's bouncer, so he had fun recognizing all of the toys on it. His favorite was the sun and he makes sure to show Savannah the sun whenever he can. In these pictures, he is singing "You are my sunshine" to her. SO SWEET!

We are back to our regular schedule at church now, so its fun dressing Savannah up every Sunday in her sweet little dresses. Here she is ready for church one morning!

Sawyer got to deliver our Christmas Box to church to help a needy child somewhere far away. We had fun filling the box and he was so cute when he delivered it!

I peeked in on Sawyer in his classroom.

Gigi got a quick peek at the kids after church in the nursery.


Last Saturday, Sawyer got to go to another UNT game! Mommy and Savannah stayed home, but she still dressed up in her Mean Green gear to cheer on the team!






Cheering on the Cowboys again!

On Tuesday, Savannah turned 5 months old! We love our little princess!



Sawyer is having so much fun being (almost) 3 1/2. Silly naked monkey! Ha!

Tuesday was also Sawyer's first big visit to the Dentist. He did such a great job! Here he (below) in the waiting room. He was excited! Ha!

Getting his X-Rays.

He got to play with some of the dentist tools.


My sweet boy! He did such a great job and I am so proud of him!
