We all survived...without scratches too!

Well....another Christmas has come and gone! Can you believe it already? I think I left y'all with the story of taking Robbie to the ER for a high fever that we couldn't get to break...that was on a Friday night. It took him til Tuesday to be up to speed.
On Wednesday, me and Big Daddy took him to see "The Chipmunks...The Squeakquel." It was precious and he loved it! This was his first time going to "The Movie House" to watch a movie and he did awesome! He got a little squirmy toward the end, but I had so much fun while he sat between me and Big Daddy, munchin' on popcorn and $4.00 gummy bears, watchin' and laughin'!

Then on the way home from the movie, I called my hairdresser and she cut his hair! Me and Big Daddy have been wanting to do this for awhile so we just went on a whim and had it done! It's so cute--makes him look older and that part I don't like!
Here's my little man with my hairdresser, Leslie before the cut:
During the cut:
After the cut! Ain't he precious?!
We then went to church and had a great service.
For Christmas Eve, we met Big Daddy's dad and step-mom at Sagebrush Steakhouse in Lincolnton and exchanged gifts with them. They got Robbie a toddler bicycle with training wheels and a HUGE Little Tykes adjustable baskeball goal. You should see him with his Lightening McQueen helmet and riding gloves too! It's hilarious! You can barely see his little sweet face!
We then drove to Wilkesboro for Christmas with Big Daddy's mama's family. She surprised me and Big Daddy with pictures from Sears. She snuck Robbie out when he spent the day with her awhile back and had his portraits done. They're adorable and I thought that was the BEST thing she did for us!
Then Christmas Morning, Robbie woke to seeing this in the den:
It was fabulous for him and so sweet for me! It was all I could do not to just lose it! He was so excited and was saying, "Look Mama! Oohhh..Ohhh...It's all so cute!"
Inside I thanked God again for making me a mama. I'm telling you there's no other feeling or no words to describe what sheer joy it is to see your youngin' experience Christmas morning after Santa had stopped in! After awhile, my mama and daddy and Big Daddy's mama came over for breakfast. Me and Big Daddy showed out by making bacon, some homemade sausage, scrambled eggs, grits, toast, and strawberry muffins. It was soo good and we almost popped from eating it all!
We laid around and played with Robbie and his toys until suppertime. Then the rest of my family came over and we celebrated Christmas with them. My brother and his family made their semi-annual appearance but we really did enjoy visiting and laughing.
So now we're back to Monday and I'm looking online for things to spend my Christmas Money on! We do have to pay our property taxes for the year with it, but the rest I'm gonna get some goodies with!
I hope you had a wonderful week last week and your week is a great one!
Big Daddy is back to work today so it's just me and Robbie hanging out at The Doublewide. We're going with his "girlfriend Cydney" and his cousins to Monkey Joe's but other than that, we have no real major plans---which is just how I like it!

I'm loving the big boy haircut and MAN, did Robbie haul it in on Christmas morning. It doesn't seem to matter how old my kids get...I get the biggest charge out of playing Santa Claus. Only problem is that the toys they want get more and more expensive the older they get. Oh well...I guess that's why we brave the world of public education and our husbands go out and work so hard. So happy that your Christmas was a good one.

Oh my, he's not a baby any more. Love the new look!

Sounds like you had a great Christmas. No way can that kiddo play with every thing, he racked up!

I'm so glad I happened up on your blog this year. Have really enjoyed it and look forward to next year. It's like being part of the family...lol

God Bless and see you next year!
