Merry Christmas!!

Christmas was very weird this year... It was just the three of us, so it didn't really feel like Christmas at all! However, it was fun to have Jeff around more during the Christmas break from school so that I could sleep more (from working night shifts) and him and Nixon got to bond even more!  Nixon didn't really catch onto the whole opening presents thing, but he enjoyed eating the wrapping paper, and playing with the boxes. Most of his presents he was scared of at first, but now he loves them!
We got to play lots of games which was really fun - Jeff got Ticket to Ride which he had been eyeing for MONTHS now, so we had a nice tournament of that and some good ol' Dominoes.
On Christmas Eve we went out for dinner - it was the first time that Nixon got a meal ordered for him.. and he ate NONE of it! What a little turkey he is!! We also all opened some new PJs, and watched some Christmas movies, it was a blast!
Here are a few pictures from Christmas Eve and Christmas Day.

Christmas Eve Jamba!!!

Nixon takes his first steps!

We got Nixon these shoes to help kids learn to walk properly since he kept standing up and trying to take a step but get too scared.  We put on the shoes and in a few minutes of course when we weren't paying any attention he just did it, he walked! We kept trying to get him to do it before and after his attempt, but the only thing that worked was cheese string.  We got a clip of him hes not the most stable, but at least he will have the confidence now!  I am so glad to see him walking.. he can get into everything, and can crawl SUPER fast, so i figure why not, at least this way i wont have to worry about him hitting his head on our tile floor until he starts climbing anyways!
Here is the video...

We went to Cardston for the week of American Thanksgiving after I got my wisdom teeth taken out.  We got super sick while we were there and that wasn't fun but it was good to see the family, and Jeff played in the Alumni tournament - and his team won!!

Well Christmas is coming and we are super excited.  We are staying in Rexburg for the season and will miss our family but we are super excited to try out just being with each other.  We put up a tree and I plan to get a family picture by it soon.  More to come for the season, so keep checking in!

Oh and Jeff only has one week left of classes so yay!!!
