January Highlight Pictures

January highlights...

First pic on my phone in 2015!

Walker started napping on a mat at school instead of in the crib!

Savannah started ballet!!

Over January and February Walker had a 7 day stomach virus, the flu, double ear infections, pneumonia, breathing problems, and a fever virus. It was pretty rough on everyone involved. 

Look how long Savannah's ponytail is!!

Walker learned to play ring around the Rosie! He loves it😍

Birthday party full of his girlfriends 😂

Patterson Christmas

We had a great few days in Searcy to celebrate Christmas! Mom and Dad cooked a ton of yummy food, decorated the house up beautifully (my daddy even put up the outside decorations for me!!😍) and spoiled us all especially the babies. Favorite moments were the big dinner and desserts, opening all of our gifts (dress up clothes were a big hit with the babies!) and just being together. I even got a bonus visit from my forever friend, Melissa! Not favorite moment was when Walker fell down the stairs when I was supposed to be watching him. Huge mom fail. But luckily he was fine, our pediatrician even said so! Just chipped one toenail a little bit. Whew. 

Anyway, I love holidays with my family! Nothing makes me happier, really. 

I took selfies with everyone there except Anna and Tucker and my children. Probably because Anna was off playing with my children and chasing Tucker. Oops!

CC made this Anna dress and cape for Savannah. Oh my she loves it!

Practically everyone took a turn wearing Savannah's hairbow. Spot the bow!

Anna just played with Savannah's hair for about 25 seconds and she fell straight to sleep! This never happens! It was so sweet. Yes she's holding my Will doll. My lovie for life, cabbage patch doll. 

Aaron made a house and it was a huge hit. We even came back with the cardboard house, for better or worse...

 

Grandad was the ultimate player and carrier of the babies. 

My mama's gourmet baking. Yule Log! YUM!!

Catch-Up

I'm going to try to catch up to the blog you guys. I have one or two more Christmas posts to make, Valentine's, January photo highlights, February photo highlights, Easter, Walker at 18 months, and March photo highlights. We will see how long it takes me to get through all of that! In the meantime I hope you have had a great 2015 so far. We have not had a very healthy one, but I am hopeful it gets better from here. 

Santa's Visit!

Santa came! after church and playing with the cousins on Christmas Eve, we came home and gave the kiddos the presents from us: pjs and a hallmark ornament. 

Baths and bed!

Not before putting out our reindeer food, though. 

Santa came!!!! 

And left us a note!

The kitties couldn't confirm or deny seeing Santa. Of course. 

But we loved going through what Santa brought us!

Of course we opened the chocolate coins first. Priorities, am I right? Chocolate bars before 8 am guarantee a great Christmas Day is ahead😉

Oh, and the reindeer at their food!! We just videoed it instead of taking photos so I have none to share.
