Wow....time goes by so fast. I am so far behind. We had a good Christmas and we are looking forward to a new year.
At the begining of December Andie had to have her 4 top teeth pulled!!! It was so sad. A couple of months before that me and my brother Brett took Andie and he took his son Evan to McDonalds so they could play in that play house thing. Andie was going up the stairs and fell forward hitting her mouth right on the edge of a stair. Her mouth was bleeding and she broke some teeth. I called the dentist and asked if I needed to bring her in. He said not to worry because they were baby teeth and to only bring her in if she was in a lot of pain. She seemed to be fine after a day or two. Little did I know she had knocked her 4 top teeth loose (not loose enough that it was noticeable) after a couple of months her teeth started turning a grey color (like they were dieing) and one day I was brushing her teeth and one of her top middle teeth broke making a gap between her two front teeth. Immedialty I made an appointment with the dentist. Baby teeth or not that was not normal and she shouldn't have three broken teeth at the age of 2. I took her in and after looking at her teeth he just looked at me and said "this is really bad". I was like DUH! He said they got knocked loose and an infection got up in them so it was killing them. He said they had to come out soon so the infection wouldn't spread to her permanent teeth. The following tuesday I took her in and they pulled all four top teeth. It was a very tramatic experience for the both of us. After about an hour of them pulling her teeth she acted like nothing had even happened. She has adapted well to not having them. She will be getting fake teeth to replace them but we have to wait until her molers grow out more because that is what they will attach to. I haven't taken any pictures of her mouth but you can tell in some of the pictures that I am going to post about other things. She is still cute as ever. My family likes to call her a little Vampire.
We had a really good Christmas. On Christmas Eve my family has a party every year. We have a big dinner, Santa comes and all the kids sit on his lap, we do a little program and then the little kids act out the Nativity scene while someone reads it from the bible. At the end of the night my parents give all of the grandkids new PJ's to wear that night. Andie got curious George ones.
Evan and Andie were entertaining us all by singing Jingle bells and then clapping for a couple of minutes. They just kept doing that over and over again and it made us all laugh every time.
They decided they would jump off every once and awhile and then get back on. Kids are so funny.
The Saturday after Christmas we decided to take Evan and Andie Sledding down in Payson. It was really cold. Evan really like it a lot. Andie....not so much. Snow kept on going in her face and she didn't like that.
She really like swinging and going down the slides
Not so happy after dad took her down the hill
Andie and Landen going down the hill
Christmas Day at Grandma & Grandpa Garners. She didn't like that too much.
Christmas morning at Grandpa & Grandma Tiptons she was playing with Alli's new tea set. Evan was even joining in on the fun.
This was when she opended her dog on Christmas morning. She was SO EXCITED!! She takes that dog everywhere we go!
Opeing her Baby. She loved it.
Right when she woke up. (She wasn't very happy that mom woke her up) She is checking out her new bike and the horn that goes to it!
We had such a fun Christmas spending time with family. It was also fun knowing that Andie knew what what going on this year. Having kids is so much fun. Watching them get excited makes me happy and excited! It was nice to have landen hone for 4 days in a row without school or work. Too bad every day can't be like that :)
We hope everyone had a wonderful Christmas spending time with the ones they love.
Tonight we are going up to my brother-in-law Garett's, cabin to ring in the new year. We are looking forward to that!
