Last Day with Hal and Kristel

We got some cute pictures of Cody and Hunter with Isaac and some cute family pics of them all with Isaac as well. I really enjoyed having them up for Christmas like always, and can't wait to have them up here permanently.

Isaac's First New Years

Here's the cutest pictures that I got of Isaac with his cute smiles and him being able to sit up with help now on New Years. He is now 2 months old and weighs 12 pounds and 10 ounces and is 23 inches long.

Isaac's Blessing Day (December 28, 2008)

We could not get Isaac blessed at the church since it was not a fast Sunday but I wanted him to get blessed since so much family was in. I got the best pictures ever of the blessing and then of us with him. Hillary would not cooperate at all with us to take any pictures though.

Christmas Day at Mimi's

Here are the cutest ones ever of Isaac with Uncle Murk and Mom on Christmas Morning.

We got some cute ones of Isaac in a stocking on his first Christmas. Hillary absolutely loved her Dora Puzzle that her Mimi got her.Colin got headlights for his car and brand new windshield wipers as well, along with a address book with the families address and phone numbers in it.

Mom got her precious moment as normal. This year it was the one of the little boy in his shield of armor. I got it to represent the fact that Mom always told us to never go out into the world without the full armor of God on. Then Hillary bought her a book about Panda's and a Panda stamp for her to read to her. Isaac bought her a picture holder for her purse that way all of her many pictures that she has of all of us won't get bent.

Hillary and Isaac on Christmas Day

Hillary loved getting up to see what Santa Clause had got her and Isaac. She was ready to open all her gifts and then she wanted to even help open Isaac's for him. Isaac was way to little to realize what was going on, but Hillary's excitement was enough for them both! Hillary was funny because she got a V-Smile from Santa Clause and some really neat toys but her absolute favorites were her brand new shoes that Colin had found her for me and her Little Mermaid Fleece Blanket from Darren's mom. Isaac's favorite is the bell rattle that we found him and a jitter bug toy that Darren's brother found him. He just loves the sound of a bell, that's how I have gotten a lot of his smiles. I couldn't pass up the pics of Isaac with his Baby's First Stocking and the one with him with the bow on! I love my Kids!

Christmas Eve at MiMi's

All the Children sat down and helped tell the story of The Birth of Christ and received glow in the dark necklaces to represent the bright shining star in the sky. We had to get a picture of all the kids together sporting their necklaces.

Well as everyone knows we always wait for the last minute to get a Christmas tree up. We made it especially late this year and waited literally till the last minute and did everything Christmas Eve that way all the kids could help. They had a blast!! Here are the cutest pics that I have of them and the funniest one yet was Devin modeling the Christmas Tree Skirt as his own!

Luke's Tree

It is such a blessing to know that Families are Forever and that we will be with our loved ones again. I always enjoy seeing the Christmas tree being decorated for Luke because it really does make me remember the season more and how grateful we all should be for the blessing of our Savior's birth and His gift that He has given us if we are faithful. All of us went over and decorated the tree and here are a few of the cute pics I was able to get.

All Dressed in White

I could not pass up taking these precious pictures of Isaac sleeping before Church when he was 6 weeks old. Darren's Mom's Boss got this complete outfit for him and sent it when he was born and he looked so pure in it (as if he is not already pure enough).
