Christmas!

Christmas was a lot of fun. My family came into town because I can't travel any more. Jordan and his cousin Haley had fun (and so did the rest of us!) We got new pajamas on Christmas Eve and the kids were SO cute!




My mom made matching stockings for us all for this year that were really cute.



We got Jordan a little basketball hoop for Christmas, and he is already practicing to be a basketball star. He and Mike are going to have a lot of fun together with it.

The Venetian

The day after Christmas we went to the strip to show my family. We decided to go inside the Venetian and it was really cool. It was nice because the ones we went into before you had to go through the casinos to see any of the other attractions they had. This one, however, was just the shops and river. It was amazing there. All the shops looked like a street in Italy and the roof was painted just like a real sky - it was extremely realistic! Anyway, it was cool to see. This was the best we could do for a family shot there because Jordan just won't pose any more!

Double Trouble

Jordan loved getting to play with his cousin Haley for a week. They were cute together. Haley would grab Jordan's hand and they would walk around the living room together. They loved giving each other high fives and just playing. Jordan is going to miss having her around.

Bath Dance

Jordan was being so funny in his bath tonight and so we had to capture it in a video. I tried to keep it as modest as I could!

Another haircut...

So, I know that Jordan getting yet another haircut isn't that news worthy, but he is just so dang cute, I can't help it. We didn't do too much because we want to try to get it a little longer on top again, but we trimmed the sides and back. So, here is Jordan getting ready. He actually did really well this time - no screaming at all!



Here are some after shots of my happy, handsome little boy.

A pig and other updates

The other night Mike's classmates had a little Christmas party/get together. We were doing a white elephant gift exchange, so we thought nothing of it when people came in with presents. Well, when we were starting that part, they told us that they decided to throw a baby shower for us too! Not only were they nice enough to do that, but they got little presents for Jordan too. I can't believe how sweet that was of them! This pig is one of the toys that Jordan got - you shake it and it rolls across the floor. He loves it and gets so excited when it moves. Its really cute.
In other news, Mike is doing finals this week, so he has been able to be home a lot more. Jordan is definitely a daddy's boy when Mike is around. He follows him and does everything he does. When Mike sits at the table to study, Jordan sits in the chair next to him and watches. When Mike is standing next to a wall bouncing a ball (he does that a lot when he's studying, chatting, etc) Jordan grabs a ball and stands next to him. He loves being like his dad, and it is really cute.
Jordan is growing up so much. He is saying a ton of words and understands a lot. It is really nice that he can tell us what he wants now. He is as friendly as ever and makes friends every time we go out. He loves saying hi and bye to people. Last night, he did something so cute. For the first time when we were having family prayer he knelt on his knees and crossed his arms (only for a few seconds, but it was so cute!) He also just learned how to jump and he is really proud of himself every time he does it. We have been trying to teach him numbers a little bit, and counting. He understands the word counting, but he can only say two. So he just goes "two two two two"! Jordan loves animals too and he can do a lot of animals sounds. He does a cow, rooster, pig, duck, monkey, and some others. Its a crowd pleaser at get togethers! He is also getting really good at feeding himself with utensils. Anyway, I could go on and on about him! I am just amazed at how much he has grown lately and all he can do. He is a great little boy.
Also, one month from today and we will have a baby! I can't wait (partly because I'm excited to have him and partly because I'm done being pregnant!)

Chairs...

Jordan is obsessed with sitting on chairs now. He especially loves the one that will give him access to the computer! He can get on them by himself now, which is always fun. I am glad he waited at least this long to be a climber!

Getting ready for baby!

Here is our double stroller and car seat we got for the baby...and Jordan I guess! It is so exciting to be getting ready! At my last doctor appointment I finally found out my delivery date - January 11th. I am having another c-section, so I guess the good thing is that I do get to schedule it. It is coming up soon!
