Merry Christmas

We had a wonderful Christmas this year. Rob and I both took two weeks off work and just hung out at the house in our PJs the entire two weeks. It was great! Also, this year my parents came to Houston so we didn't have to travel back to Louisiana which was a nice treat.

Jenny had to leave on Christmas Eve to go back home. Tee giving her a kiss goodbye.

Santa stopped by BB and Sugar's house on Christmas Eve to pass out a few presents and to make sure Tee was still being a good boy. Mom of course had to put her order in with Santa for a new purse!

Aunt Rachel bought all of the Rob's a N.O. Saints shirt. BB has number 02, Rob has number 03 and Tee Rob has number 04. Too cute!!

Aunt Jenny Visit

My sister came to visit a few days before Christmas. Tee had a blast with his Aunt Jenny here are a few pictures from her visit.

Making Christmas Cookies...yummy!

Some of the decorated cookies. Not sure if being a pastry chef is in Tee's future...or Aunt Jenny's future :-)

Tee showing off the cookie he just made

Trying so hard not to eat them. After he decorated each cookie he wanted to eat them. It was very hard explaining this to a two year old that we were just decorating the cookies and could not take a bit out of each one.

Opening the present

He loved his new Cars truck!

Love you Aunt Jenny and miss you already! Come back soon!

Tee's Christmas Pageant

Tee had his annual Christmas Pageant last weekend at school. He was so confused as to why he was at school on a weekend and refused to participate in the singing with the rest of his classmates in fear that Mom and Dad may leave him at school. So he sat on my lap and watched the rest of his class sing. We did pose for a picture with his class at the end.

SANTA!

Rob and I took Tee to see Santa yesterday afternoon. He refused to sit on Santa's lap at first, but when Santa gave him a Disney Cars present he was VERY excited and agreed willingly to sit on Santa's lap. I think I can even see a hit of a smile in the picture :-)

SNOW!!!

It snowed last Friday afternoon in Houston and it was absolutely beautiful! Tee enjoyed playing in the snow, but got cold very fast since we did not have the proper attire for his hands and feet.

As in normal Tee fashion, not looking or smiling at the camera

Christmas Card Photos

So every year I send out Christmas cards and have a nice family photo taken. However, I never anticipated how difficult this becomes with an almost two year old. We didn't even get one good shot for the card :-( Tee was so bad the entire time it was impossible to get him to smile let alone actually look at the camera. So Merry Christmas everyone, sorry no cards this year! Here some photos from our shoot. Too funny!

Tee with the "sink eye"

We tried to bribe him with everything to look at the camera and smile...including car keys

Running around in between shots

Telling Daddy he will not smile and look at the camera. I hope Santa was watching this one!

Christmas Tree

The weekend after Thanksgiving we put up our Christmas Tree. Here are a few pictures of the final product.

Touching the tree after I asked him several times not to.
