Christmas In Vida!

We had Christmas in Vida on the 23rd with Papa & Grandma Erickson and Brady, Candace, Kylie & Tyler. It was crazy, but a lot of fun! Rhys and Kylie had a blast opening up their many, many, many, many presents. You could say that they got a little spoiled. :) Tyler either slept or observed quietly all day. He is such a good baby and adorable.
















Kylie loves Dora the Explorer, so she was really excited about this present in her Dora bag!






Rhys couldn't take his eyes off of his new crib toy. He really loved it and he still does now that it is in his crib.






Kylie loves bunnies, so this was the perfect gift to give her.






We thought that it would be a great idea to get all three kiddos a picture in their cute little hats that I got them. Rhys had an elf hat that says Jingle This on it, Kylie had a reindeer antlers with lights twisted around them headband and Tyler had a santa hat with a snowman face on it. Well, as you can see by the picture to the left, not all of the kids were too excited about the idea. It was too late and they were not patient at all, except Tyler, who just layed there, as pictured below.





















He is so cute in his Christmas sleeper!








Can you say mischievious!







Uncle Brady and Rhys playing. Brady is wearing Kylie's antler headband.















Brady is one big elf!










Too much excitement for little Tyler.












The next morning Rhys was finally cooperative enough to wear his hat and sit with the large amount of toys that he got for Christmas. I would have to say that he is the cutest little boy ever!





Grandpa was helping Rhys ride his new Tonka truck.
They were having a blast.








Christmas With The Reuters!

We have some really great friends, Jesse and Monica, here that have a little boy named Jaxsen who is only 3 days older than Rhys. Rhys and Jaxsen are great buds. Jesse and Monica had us over to dinner one Sunday and we opened up presents. It was a blast! It was the 1st present that Rhys got to open. He and Jaxsen are decked out here in their Christmas pj's. All Jaxsen ever wants to do when Rhys and him are together is grab Rhys. I think that he likes the fact that he is the same size as he is. They are a lot of fun together and it will be a blast to watch them grow up together. And of course we have a picture of Rhys clapping. He is a pro at clapping.

















Aren't they cute. But I would have to say that the cutest one is in the picture below! I may be a little biased. :)
















Rhys is opening his 1st present with Mommy's help.
As every child does, he liked the bow, paper and box better than the toy.
