Fun with Grandma

While my mom was down, she bought Andee her Christmas present - the Exersaucer! Andee couldn't stop giggling when we put her in it for the first time. I think I love it more than Andee does, however, because it is another great spot for her to hang out so I can get some housework done! Thanks Mom & Dad!


Grandma & Trey built this fort which they decorated and played in for an entire day! Trey didn't want to stop playing in it and poor Grandma had to have had a sore neck after bending over in it for so long!

"Look at me, Mom!"

Sitting up on her own!

She started at about 5 months, but perfected the skill at 6 months old.

"Jesus is the Reason for the Season"

The Pre-K Owl Class Presents,

"Jesus is the Reason for the Season"Trey was apart of the "green" people who thought that Christmas Trees were the best part of Christmas. But they still didn't feel like that was the reason Christmas was so special until they realized it was "Jesus" who was the "REASON FOR THE SEASON".

They sang songs and acted out during the narration. I was such a proud mom and had tears in my eyes during his performance!

Andee enjoyed the show too! :)

"Yay Trey!"

After, we ate cookies and popcorn with his class. The students surprised their parents with plates they had decorated and made for Christmas presents.

It was so nice to have Grandma there to watch Trey's Christmas program!

Surprise!

Grandma brought Trey a new nutcracker to go with his red one.

I asked my mom to come down to Tucson for Trey's first Christmas program and to visit for a while. I wanted to surprise Trey and so we kept it a secret from him. On December 16th, I picked Trey up from Preschool and told him I had to run an errand. We drove to the airport and he said, "We're at the airport?" I told him I was picking up a friend. He asked if she was from church and I said, "Well, she's in our church." I told him she had black hair and to keep an eye out for her. We must have entered the wrong terminal because my mom was already waiting for us. We walked outside and she hid behind a wall. She jumped out at Trey and he stood there for what seemed like 5 minutes, SHOCKED! Then smiled and ran and gave her a big hug! He was so surprised and so excited to see her!

Splish Splash, I was taking a bath

Sounds of squeals, splashes, and giggles...

Andelyn's First Time in the Big Tub!

& boy did she love it! December 7, 2009

Good Buddies

Trey and Jackson Rustand

I think Jackson has licorice all in his teeth!

I am so grateful for the friends Trey has made here in Tucson! It really makes a difference to have special friends that get along great with your child and make them happy! Jackson is a wonderful friend for Trey and they play so well together. They like to play dress up, sing and play instruments in their "rock band", race Hot Wheels, fight bad guys as Batman, Superman and Spiderman, and love playing at the gym and Mcdonald's!

A Holiday Tradition...

Every year we create a gingerbread house or train... this year, Trey decided the train was the family craft to do! Trey loves being creative and Andee even joined in on the fun by tasting the frosting! :) Yummy! I think Trey liked eating the frosting more so than decorating with it... but isn't that the best part!
