Getting ready for Christmas!

This year we bought a real tree for Christmas. It was pretty fun bundling up to go out in the (40-something degree) cold weather to pick out a Christmas tree. Aiden chose our tree, and we thought he did a pretty good job.

We spent a few days cleaning house and decorating so we’d be ready for not just the holidays but for the Relief Society progressive dinner, which served dessert at our house.

Landon is gearing up for his first Christmas whether he knows it or not. Aiden has been super excited about wrapping presents for other people and listening to Christmas music and talking about flying to Papa Snow’s house to see all his cousins.

Aiden is getting more accustomed to having a baby in the house, and Landon is getting more alert and amused by watching Aiden sing or play with toys in front of him.

Landon is getting better at lifting up his head and rolled from his tummy to his back twice during tummy time last week. He also smiles intentionally very occasionally, which is something we all get excited about.

It has sure felt cold here lately, but we acknowledge that we are wimps about the cold and send warm hugs to family all over this freezing country!

These photos are so cute.

I love Aiden's happy face as he's standing putting an ornament on the tree.

I also love the Santa hat that Landon is sort of wearing. SO cute. :)
