WE BELIEVE!!

Baby Alive for Piper.....

Pony RollerCoaster for Alizah......

Cell Phone for Hanna......

The kids definately had a great Christmas and believe that Santa is real,
because mom and dad wouldn't buy these kind of presents!!

Christmas is over and we are back into the routine of things, but you can still see signs of it around our house. I still feel like I'm recovering, trying to find places for all the new toys and wanting vacation to come back! The kids love all their presents and got everything and more than what was on their list. Grandma and Grandpa Nelson were with us for Christmas and got to see the kids' faces light up when they opened their gifts. It's so fun to watch them unwrap and look with anticipation of what was inside. The Baby Alive for Piper was a hit for the day and then it's been a pain ever since (thanks, Santa). She wets and poops (yes everyone-i signed myself up to change more diapers!). I think Santa thought it would help Piper potty train, but no go for that one. She is just happy watching "Olivia" (this is what Piper named her after a little friend of hers) do it and insists that she's a baby still! Alizah's Pony Rollercoaster entertains her for HOURS, yes hours. She is perfectly content playing it by herself or with her sisters. She absolutely loves it! Hanna thinks she is way cool with her cell phone. She called Kiki and mom one night at 1:00 in the morning, so we had to go over rules of the phone. No calls after 9, no texting, no internet, no giving it to your friends, etc. I know everyone thinks she's too young for a cell pbone, but I guess Santa doesn't! If anyone knows Hanna, she is not one to break rules. Once you tell her, she won't even think twice about not following "a rule". Unlike her cousin, I hear, who bought $80 worth of games on his mom's phone which had already had a block on it, that he somehow got around! I guess the lady at the cell phone store doesn't even know how he could get around it, so she refunded the money!! So Santa giftswere a hit, and I'm catching up on the blog finally, after brandon finally figuring out how to get the pics of my new camera and onto the computer. SO I'll be posting more with the tons of pics that we took over the break!
