A few (LOTS)pictures of Christmas

Sky playing with his jingle bells

Sky got a very cool paint brush set from Grandpa and Grandma Rosengren, this is his first master piece.... I just love it :)

Fishing, I think he likes this game

So excited to have his orange

Great Grandma Rosengren, my dad and Bailey, it was such a joy to have my Grandma over this Christmas, she is 94 and amazing!!!!

Sky laughing at his kitty chasing lightning around the race track

Happy opening some gifts

I think Grandma and Great Grandma liked the gifts the kids go them.

LOVE, love love this shirt

and I can not forget the dog, Bailey and her treats from Santa

Chan and Moni opening Grandma Helen gifts

Sky watching and waiting

my little Christmas dude

waiting patiently with his Santa gifts. he was so cute, he woke up and the first thing he asked was the cookies, so i showed him the plate we left out for Santa, his eyes got so BIG, he looked at me and I asked should we see if Santa left gifts in the stockings? "yeah mama" I turned him around and he could not believe his eyes. Oh the magic of Santa Clause!

Praying that 2010 will be the year to cure our kids of SMA.

there is nothing like the holidays to bring everything in your life to one place, my place was and is with my family, my kids are my life and I feel so blessed to be their mom and to see them grow into such wonderful kids! The holidays are so very special, and each and every second isl filled with many many loving, happy memories that will last forever!

Cha Cha Cha Chia

A little funny, yesterday Sky saw the Spongebob cha cha cha chia on TV, and all he could do was talk about it for about 4 hours.... Im thinking Santa needs to bring him this for Christmas.

Nothing but smiles

I love pictures that show Skylar in motion.

Tree gazing, Skylar is so taken with the light of the tree this year, I

really think that he knows how special and magical Christmas is.

Everyone should have a little pink in the tree :)

My beautiful boy and his Christmas hair cut, love you little man!!!

Enjoying watching me put presents under the tree.

Our Christmas present to each other this year. Thanks love!!!!!

We had a very mellow weekend, it was very nice. Sky has been having a blast with his new toy, and so have I. We are looking forward to the next 2 and half weeks, and then everyone is home for Christmas (well most of it). I wonder if it will be a white Christmas? Sky has been so cute when he gets up in his power chair he helps me figure out where Christmas decorations need to be, we have garland around doors, clocks and pictures, its all his Christmas vision!!!! oh and he has made a few ornaments, a snowman and snow flakes. One ornament is an army man with ribbon (he is so funny)

Thank You Maria

Maria (another SMA mom) did a blog post with her son Jojos new Lumindisk, and as soon as I saw it I knew i had to have one and that Sky would love it, so I went to ebay and found one. We got it today and could not wait to give it to Sky, he loves it, talking to it, watching it play to music. Maria Im so Thankful for you and your Jojo, and for the idea of this wonderful toy!!!!!!

When I was a kid, I looked forward to Christmas, stringing popcorn and cranberry's for the tree, hanging our stockings, going to Grandmas house on Christmas eve, coming home late that night to see Santa had been there while we were away, Christmas has always been my favorite holiday. Now that Im a mom, Christmas has even bigger meaning, the look of joy that shines in your childs eyes is always the best gift.
