The Price Family: 2008 Christmas

2008 Christmas

Christmas Eve took place at Nana's house (Matt's mom). We had a nice dinner and then opened presents from her.

Merry Christmas from the Price Family! Don't you think this should be on our next Christmas card? Here we are....all looking our best at 6 am.

Allison and Mason were so excited that they woke up at 2 am. We promptly put them back into bed and told them it wasn't time to get up. Then they got up at 5 am. This time Matt got up and laid down with Mason for a little while. We held off until 6 and then went downstairs to let the fun begin.

Allison got a treasure chest with dress up clothes. She is our little actress, always singing and dancing!

Mason got a cool stomper set that came with two trucks. They are motorized (of course) so they have traveled all over our house.

As for Andrew, he was mostly excited about the wrapping paper and bows. They were fun to swing around and carry all over. It was sure fun to watch him his first Christmas.

He loves his new little car! He is now walking all over and learning how to push himself along on his car.

I realize now that we never took a picture of the cute little Christmas tree we had. Matt took the kids up to Idaho City one Saturday and cut a fresh one for us to have for the season. They had a great time together and we have decided to make it an annual family event. They got a cute little tree that we put on top of a table so Andrew wouldn't tear it apart. It was the perfect solution for us this year. Andrew really enjoyed the lights and decor, but it was all at a safe distance.

Happy New Year 2009 Everyone!

The funny things they say...

Mason

The other morning Mason was anxious to tell me all about a scary dream he had during the night. He went into great detail to explain a big bug with stripes and wings was chasing him.... not sure where that came from, but it was really funny.

As we've been working on potty training, Mason has been working hard to get to the potty on time. One afternoon he was racing to the potty and then came out with wet pants. He looked at me with a scrunched up face and said, "I'm not very good at this." Poor little guy, I was busy changing Andrew's pants, and he had been trying so hard. He has since made huge progress!

Last night the kids were outside digging in the yard and they found a worm. They love to play with worms, but Mason decided that the worm would enjoy a ride in his dump truck. He proceeded to put the worm in the truck and race him all over the driveway. It was pretty funny.

One night we're in the tub and Mason was doing some toots. He was getting a kick out of the bubbles that were coming from his bum. He then told me that he needed to get his stinkies out in the tub because he thought he should get them (the stinkies) clean....because they are stinkie!

The funny things they say....

Allison

The other day we were walking home from school and Allison told me about someone being sick and they had to have their "utinsels" out. I said, oh, you mean their tonsils, oh yeah she said.

Where does God live?
A: Mom, where does God live?
Mom: Up in heaven.
A: How do we get there? Can we go visit?
Mom: No, it's not a place we can drive or fly to.
A: What if we took a donkey? Could he get us there?

As we were walking home from school one day, Allison told me that some of her friends asked her how old her mom was. She told them, she's 25. She then asked me on the way home if that was right.....I simply said yes.

The other day we're at the grocery store and they were having a special on fresh salmon. The whole fish was for sale, laying on ice and she had never seen such a big fish so close. She asked the lady at the fish counter "Did you guys just catch those this morning?" She wanted to know where they caught them so she could go fishing there with her dad.

We're reading a Dora book and in the story Dora has to cross over a big bridge where a Troll lives underneath. As we come to the picture of the Troll in the book (he looks kind of mean), Allison says, "he must not get any naps, he looks kind of grumpy." It really made me laugh.
