This post is mostly a picture overload from Dec 1- Dec 20th. It has been a super crazy/busy/fun/stressful/great month. It started with check ups to the doctors. Both kids got shots. It was a really sad car ride home.

 Q is so big! We had 2 nurses. One was getting all of Q's vitals and 1 was helping Audrey.
 Matching gowns. Q thought it was great.

 Audrey and Quentin went Christmas shopping with me and my mom. Audrey has some great taste at Kate Spade.

 We went to the Lego Store and we left with the magazine. He sat in the stroller like this the rest of the time at the mall. This of course meant Audrey had to be carried.

 My dad had to buy a tux, so at Nordstrom they had reusable stickers. Of course Q didn't want to put them back in the book, he thought the mirrors would be better.

 We had our Christmas Tradition Pizza night at Pag. While we were there Bell Square was light up for the Seahawks.

 

Some of the christmas present damage. 

 More Christmas damage.

 Making dad and Grandpas Christmas present

 We also decorated Grandma Dolders Christmas Tree. He HAD to wear the elf hat. He is a silly kid.

 He was also organizing the tree.  All the same type ornaments had to be by each other.

 At our ward christmas party, Q decided he was part of the Primary and wanted to go sing.

 He didn't want to give up his spot on the stairs.

 

When Santa showed up Q ran away as soon as he walked in. But about 5 minutes later he was ready to go tell Santa what he wanted.

 He is such a good big brother.

 Audrey loves sitting up now and seeing what is going on around her. During dinner we put her in this chair and added some toys. She loved it.

 Dr. Quentin listening to Audreys heart. We listen to our hearts and lungs a lot in this house.

 She is a super happy girl.

 She also makes the funniest faces. This is the look of shock and disgust. "I cant believe you like that"

 The best Christmas party! Erics work rented out all of Lucky Strike in Bellevue and gave everyone tickets to play for 3 hours for free. We had SOOOOO much fun!!

 We were football players and basketball players.

 They also had these race cars that you took turns driving, but while you were driving your seat vibrated and moved to match the car. It was pretty fun.

 We had the entire Bowling room to ourselves. The screen is showing a winter blizzard. Eric wont at bowling, but I at least went above 100, so I'm happy.

 I went to a girls night sock exchange where you put in gifts in the socks and exchanged them without knowing what was in it. We also had amazing Fondue and great company. I love my friends!

 We had the BYU Bowl Game and so natually we had to put on our tatoos.

 Audrey had a clothing change because she spits up A TON. Both outfits were pretty cute.

My dad, brother and Eric flew down to Vegas for the game, and then flew home that night. I am so excited that they went!

Prepare for picture overload. I love holidays! I especially love going to Saint George. Eric and my parents both have houses down there, so we have gone every year. We were able to go down for an entire week. Well I was always going to go down that long, but Eric was able to take time off of work so he was there the entire time! Yay for extra help!

 One of the projects this year was putting rocks in the flower beds. Q was in rock heaven and was climbing on the pile all the time.

 We stay at my parents house when we go, and this year they bought a wagon.... and gave everyone a selfie stick.

 The have a waterfall in the neighborhood that we walked to just so Q could throw rocks in it. Maybe I should just get him rocks for Christmas

 At Erics parents/Grandparents house he loved hiding behind this plant. Every time we went over. He would jump out and scare you. Or giggle incessantly while you looked for him.

 Pre Thanksgiving dinner. I thought the plates were adorable!!

 Q and Ellie having lunch together. They will best friends.

 Q learning to take a selfie. I am only teaching him the important things.

 Grandma Corbett and Audrey selfie.

 Q and mom Selfie

 Most Q and Ellie selfies. Audrey on Grandmas lap.

 One of the days we decided to drive up to snow. Because why not?

 It was SOOOOOOOO COLD! The wind was so high they closed the skiing resort.

 Also because it was so cold the snow was more like a hard rock of snow.

 Quick selfie before we all ran back inside the car. Eric, Q, Donald, Emma, Ellie and Me. Audrey was asleep in the car.

 SO COLD!

 More selfies.

 Like I said, hard rock of Ice.

 Back in the car trying to get warm.

 My parents bought Q a ricochett car in the San Jose house, and had another one delievered to the Saint George house. He LOVES this thing! His favorite is when it drives up someones leg.

 A boy and his Grandpa Corbett. So much love!

 The day finally came that the rock pile had to go away. Q had his own little shovel to help.

 Every time I see this photo I want to start singing "I ho, I ho, its off to work I go"

 Q's little Thanksgiving table. He decorated it with the pomegrante himself.

 After Thanksgiving we all made pies. I made a Chocolate Truffle Cheesecake. IT WAS AMAZING! It is so easy to make! I just need a reason to make it! Guess I need to go to more parties. Or start throwing them myself.

 These were all the pies. Not enough people to help eat them!

 I love when he falls asleep in the car like this. It is just so funny. Sadly the trip had to  come to an end. Sometimes I wish we could live in Saint George. I love my cousins and family that are down there and its so fun to spend time with them. But then I fly into Seattle and see all the beautiful lakes and green trees and I remember I would miss this too much.

At the Las Vegas Airport he decided he wanted to join a different family. This mom was reading a Frozen book to her daughter and he thought it was amazing. Silly kid.

I Love...  being social! As long as you are part of the action and can see whats going on your are perfectly content. You love Quentin as well, and just like to watch him play. We also got Ellies bouncy chair out for you to play with and you love to jump in it. You always have the biggest smiles!
 s at night to eat a bottle. During the day you go to sleep about an hour after drinking your bottle. Sometimes its hard to get you to go to sleep and other times its really easy. Go figure.
I Hate... Tummy time, being left alone, the car (you cant see anyone in the car so you get really upset if someone sits back there with you, then you are happy) Waiting for a bottle. If you can see the bottle and it isn't in your mouth when you want it you turn into a crazy lady.
First: Christmas, Urgent Care visit, snow.
Other facts: Its fun to see the differences between you as a baby and Q. For one thing you are obsessed with your binkie and sucking on your fingers. You will put everything you can get your hands on in your mouth. Q NEVER did that. I think it was a saving grace for him. So we have to make sure you dont get things your not supposed to. Also you are always hungry. Sometimes you want to eat every 2 hours! and you get so sad when the bottle is gone.

This picture makes me laugh every time i see it. Perfect combination of shock and disgust.

I Love... LEGOS. Oh man do you love your legos. You also like to watch Super Wings, Mickey Mouse Club House, Cars, Finding Nemo, Toy Story, Paw Patrol. Also you love going to the park and playing with your friends. You are so good with your Audrey and always make sure Dad kisses her goodbye in the morning.
I Hate...  Bedtime and time out.
