December 2009 (Part 2) - Christmas

Hello again blog followers! If there are any left anyway. I know, I know, I was supposed to be better once school was over, but for some reason, we are consumed with prepping for baby #2. Which includes moving Taylor to her new big girl room. There has been painting, carpet installation, purging of stuff, rearranging, etc. Not sure where all my free time was supposed to come from!
Anyway, I am now up to Christmas and not sure how I will squeeze in the next 5 months before baby girl arrives in the next week or two! All in time though. Need to make sure we document what we can.

So without further delay, onto Christmas in Kansas! Yes, it does feel weird to blog about Christmas when the lilacs are blooming...oh well!

Taylor making herself at home with all the fun toys at Nana and Papa's house:

Christmas morning! Taylor was able to open Santa gifts at Nana and Papa's house, how fun!

Mommy and Tay-Tay:

Taylor loving her cousin Caleb. She was so doting to him and always wanted to give him hugs. Big sister in training!

Christmas lunch with cousins Tavaris and Baily!

Story time with Nana:

Playing the organ at Great Grandpa Voigt's house. This has been an attraction since Al and his sisters were little kids.

Grandpa Voigt with his grandkids (Kelly, Al and DeeDee) and great-grandkids (Tavaris, Baily, Caleb, Taylor, Logan - one of the cousins, Deidric)

We are so blessed to have been able to see Grandpa Voigt over Christmas. Sadly, we lost him on St. Patricks' Day this year. He will be greatly missed.

Taylor tuckered out from all the action and too cool for school:

It was another wonderful visit to Kansas to see Al's family. Taylor loves to see her cousins, Nana, Papa and Mimi. Just wish we could make it happen more!

Coming up, our chilly trip to Florida in January!
