We had a few more days of Christmas break in January before heading back to school and normal life. I'm not going to lie though, it was good to get the kids back to school. They needed it and we needed it too!
Above: Just hanging out on New Year's Day.
Above: After putting together all of Peter and Johnny's Christmas Legos, we pulled out our bin of Legos and the boys had a fun Lego night.
Above: What a cute guy! My sweet Mr. Pudgy Pants!
Above: Peter's Christmas Legos displayed very nicely.
Above: Peter sure loves his little brother!
Above: I sure have sweet boys. I love them so much!
Above: I love my time with Daniel. He is such a cutie!
Above: Johnny had a few fun Play Doh days. He sure loves to make and create!
Above: Johnny got to have a play date with his buddy, Eli.
Above; Johnny is such a good big brother.
Above: It's hard to get these two smiling at the same time!
Above: What handsome boys!
Above: Where did Johnny go? (Hint: he's under his green blankie)
Above: I sure love these boys of mine. The only thing that would have made this picture more perfect is if Peter was in it too and everyone was smiling at the same time. :)
Above: Johnny gave his first talk in Primary. He was beyond shy and scared about it, so I told him if he gave his talk, he could earn a Beanie Boo.
Above: As you can see, Johnny gave his talk and earned his Beanie Boo. It was so cute and silly when he gave his talk.
Above: Johnny covered his ears when Jeremiah started whispering the words of his talk into them. He mumbled his talk with a few words that were clear here and there. It was so dang cute!
Above: Peter will snuggle Daniel every chance he can get.
Above: I love this sweet Johnny.
Above: Ahhh, Sunday. The only day I am consistently styling my hair and doing make-up.
Above: So. Much. Snow.
Above: Peter was adamant that he wanted his hair styled a certain way. He kept saying he wanted his sides "shaved," which we weren't cool with. However, since this is what he really meant, we were happy to oblige. Doesn't he look handsome? This haircut is perfect for him.
Above: We got Johnny his usual haircut...and then he was very sad about it after seeing Peter's haircut. So, we have promised him that he can have his hair done like Peter's in the future. It looks like I will have a lot more hair styling experience in my future because Peter's new haircut requires a lot more upkeep than his past haircuts have!
Above: Every time I sort the laundry and see the size of Peter's shorts/pants, I can't help but repeat this line from The Sandlot in my mind: "He's a square, Benny. A square! He's an L7 weenie!"
Above: Johnny loves his art table that Nana and Grandpa Mackay got for him for Christmas. He uses it pretty much every single day.
Above: Having fun with Daddy.
Above: Having fun at Mimi and Papa's house for Sunday dinner.
Above: Jeremiah snapped this picture on the way to his bishopric meetings one Sunday morning. What a gorgeous sunrise!
I would say the year is off to a good start, wouldn't you? Lots of good times ahead!
