Christmas 2011

With dad having a week off for Christmas Tayton was able to feed the sheep quite a bit(he loves it)

spoiled rotten at Grammy Julie & Papa Steve's house.

2 boys jamming out on their guitars

Tayton giving Kylee her dolly....we will have to give her trucks next year that is all she wanted to play with:)

Who is more excited Grandpa or the boys?

Sporting the new football attire

All the Pace kids

We had to let Ky in for a minute so Tayton could give him his gift from Santa

HAHA he's going to kill me:)

New football helmet, daddy thought he had to have this. Don't mind its for a 5-9 yr old!! He definitely has time to grow into it!

Christmas morning 2011

Christmas Eve Party

Trust uncle Vinny, I tell him a hunting gun would be a good idea and he gives him a Nerf assault rifle that is quite large. HAHA Tayton loves it though:) Look at those smiles

We had a fun Christmas this year. Tayton was spoiled by the time he opened from Santa, us, grandparents, and aunts and uncles. He didn't know what to think about all his new toys. He actually asked me, "mom I take all my old toys back to store?" What a funny kid, I had to tell him he gets to play with old and new toys:) One highlight was seeing Drew and Kensi. Tayton had not seen them forever (they live in Tuscon) so it took a little time to warm up, but Christmas Eve Kensi was Tayton's new best friend! I think our Holiday was a little overbooked this year: 23rd Pace Party, 24th Robinson Party, 25th parents came over early to see what Santa brought, ate breakfast at grandma Karen's, went to Church (well some), back to grandma Karen's to open presents, Dinner & presents at my moms, Grand and Grand Pace came to see all the new things. We were all exhausted and I don't think Tayton really had time to enjoy himself until the day after when things could finally sink in and he actually had time to play with the things he wanted too. But what would Christmas be without all our families. I am grateful we live so close to both our families and can spend Holidays with both sides (even though it can be a little overwhelming for a 8 month prego lady and a 2 yr old boy:)

Its hard to believe all the madness is over, we all look forward to Christmas Day so much that it is hard to get back into the swing of things after it is over. I have been trying to get things ready for a new baby here and her room is almost complete just waiting for a few more packages in the mail. Its crazy to think we are getting so close, but it also feels so far away. I'm just excited to hopefully get her here safely and not be pregnant any longer and maybe start loosing weight. I know that is bad to think but I just am not a happy camper when I am pregnant and start looking like a beached whale the last couple of weeks!!! But we can't wait for her to get here especially her big brother who asks me everyday, "MOM has baby sister came out yet?"
