Riley's First Christmas! Part 1

This year we celebrated another first! Our baby boy not only turned 3 months old on Christmas Day but he celebrated his first Christmas! Charlotte enjoyed her first Christmas actually understanding how to unwrap presents, even though she had a little help but did some on her own. It was such a wonderful time had by our family of four!

Today it is all about cookies and our Christmas Eve! We had such a wonderful long four day weekend with Daddy and definitely soaked in all the time we had with him!











We made so many cookies and it took all of Tuesday and then Christmas Eve day to get them fully ready and prepared! We prepared the dough on Tuesday while Scott was home, let it chill in the fridge all of Wednesday and then baked, frosted, and decorated Christmas Eve day! It was a busy few days but a fun few days as well! 

Once all the cookies were prepared, we all scrambled, or Scott and I scrambled to get both kiddos and ourselves ready for Christmas Eve dinner at Mom's with the family. 

Our little Santa and elf ready for Christmas Eve

Handing out presents, like such a big girl

Coloring in her new coloring books! This girl loves, loves, loves to color

Christmas Eve is exhausting when you are a 3 month old! Daddy loved holding Riley though so it was all comfy and cozy for the sleepyhead!

He is so precious while he sleeps! 

He also slept in Mimi's lap too!

Our tree and the hallmark channel on before Santa arrives! 


Someone is excited for his First Christmas

So it was absolutely nasty and rainy Christmas Eve day and night so I got to open a present from the husband early, actually two. These were opened Christmas Eve, Eve and Christmas Eve I got to open my rain jacket which for someone reason I do not have a picture of! It is absolutely beautiful and my husband did an amazing job surprising me this year! 


This boy refused to be put down in his crib to fall asleep, so he laid with Daddy and went to sleep! Such a sweet loving boy! 

Santa came, and we have a pretend fireplace so that it looks cozy and warm, even though its actually 70 degrees outside! Eek, too warm for Christmas Eve

Santa came and left tons of goodies for Charlotte and Riley, and the Wicks Family were all snuggled in their beds finally haha!

Come on back tomorrow to check out Part 2.... Weekend Recap Christmas edition! 

Have a great Tuesday!
XOXO

Show and Tell Tuesday: Prom night!

Happy Tuesday! Today I am linking up with Andrea for Show and Tell Tuesday, and today we are talking all about Prom! Here are a few facts first before all the pictures of itty bitty high school me! 1) I dated the same boy from freshman year of high school until senior year of high school so he was my date for his junior and senior prom which was my sophomore year and junior year. 2) I went with my best friend my senior year. I had a good time, but missed my boyfriend pretty much the whole time. 3) I went all out for my first prom sophomore year, with my hair, nails and prom dress and then again my senior year. 4) I only participated in senior skip day, which really isn't a thing but seniors do it anyways at my high school, my senior year. My best friend and I met super early on the day of Prom for breakfast and coffee and then just spent the rest of the day together doing random things like shopping, then getting our nails done with one of our other friends, and then ...

Show and Tell Tuesday

Happy Tuesday! Today I'm linking up with Andrea and doing Show and Tell Tuesday!  Today it is all about how to win your heart!  In the four years I have known Scott he has always known how to make my heart go pitter patter! Whether he is sitting with our children and playing and laughing with them, or on a pizza date where we both look awful because it is so spur of the moment because the kids went to Mimi's for the first time in a couple months we rush out so fast without showers, he knows how to speak to my heart!  Scott and I will be married three years this coming June and in those three years we have been married he goes above and beyond with speaking to my heart! Whether it is a random coffee or energy drink that he brings me while I'm chasing the kiddos, or just telling me to go to the bookstore and read a few magazines, I got the kids for a couple hours, it is those things that win me over day after day! What is different about our lo...

Friday Favorites!

Happy Friday Ya'll!  I am so glad it is Friday! It has been. rough week for this momma, the kiddos have been loud and crazy but have been so good this week but everything else is just super crazy haha!  Today I am linking up for Friday Favorites with Narci , Andrea and Erika !  So here are some random favorites that happened this week! Cuddles with this sweet boy have been a favorite this week! I have been having on and off contractions and lots of pain so I have been bed ridden for a good portion of the week and this little has hung out with me and watched cartoons! Cuddles are definitely a favorite!    Trying to let this boy in the house more and more since its been chilly outside.  While the training process has been rough, he has started to snooze in the afternoons and those are definitely a favorite!  Breakfast conversations with these two are a favorite from this week! It is always non-stop with these t...
