A Quick Update

It's been a random couple of months for us at the Leffler household. Here is a quick update:

November:
We were able to watch our nephew Jaxon one night for Jordan and Micaela while they both worked. He sure is a ham when the camera comes out!

Chandler makes a nice pillow

Look at those teeth

Shy sure has come a LONG way with kiddos

Isn't he cute


Also in November we celebrated my 29th birthday and had Thanksgiving with my brother Robb and sister-in-law Sheri. Of course I don't have photos of either of those events but they were a lot of fun.....at least Thanksgiving was! I wasn't too thrilled with celebrating my 29th birthday....I shouldn't be that old!

December:
We had my family up to our house for Christmas Eve dinner. I cooked Christmas Shepherd's pie which turned out really nice.

We had Jake open his gift from us to him since we wouldn't see them Christmas morning. Jake was pretty excited when he opened his "moe-key-choke" car from Uncle Jared and Aunt Abby.


His "moe-key-choke" car...love how he said remote control


He was more than happy to move my gifts so he could drive his car


Such concentration when learning how it worked

We went over to the Leffler's house Christmas morning and enjoyed a quiet day with Rick and Karen. A little after lunch we decided to head home and do Christmas with just the two of us. It was so nice to spend time with each other and start some new Christmas traditions!


Jared took a brief nap with Shy and Chan


January:
It's been pretty low key 2011 so far. We rang in the new year together and toasted to what's to come in 2011....whatever that may be.

We are staying busy with work and enjoying spending time with both families. Shy and Chan are doing well and enjoyed the week of vacation we took between Christmas and New Years.


I'm looking forward to cooking even more meals this year and trying different things out. Keep an eye out for some delicious, and healthy, recipes coming your way.

Enjoy!
