Christmas and the 2 year old blog!
(December 29, 2009)


This year Christmas was great, this was our first Christmas where Santa visited our house. Jacob was very excited when he woke up Christmas morning and as his Daddy carried him downstairs he caught a glimpse of what Santa left him! This year Jacob must have been on the "Very Nice" list (that or Santa doesn't count "terrible two" tantrums as worthy of the "Naughty List").

Jacob got a new train table and a full array of Thomas Trains and buildings. Santa was even nice enough to set up a whole town with winding track and buildings for Jacob to immediately start playing with.



For any of you that have followed this blog from the beginning this blog has been going on now for 2 years. The first blog entry happened December 24th 2007, check out how much Jacob has grown up! He was only 18 weeks old (same age Andrew is now). I have a tradition to take a picture of Jacob in his Santa hat every year, so lets compare:

Well it is official we got 20 inches of snow dumped on us and we are now having strong winds that have made a few 3-4 foot snow drifts for the kids to play in! Needless to say Christmas presents might not get purchased in time! Living on a farm makes for wonderful pictures and sledding but it isn't too good for getting the state to come back the 3 mile DIRT road and plow us out. We are always left for the end of the plowing! Hopefully we can get out by Wednesday, and Thank God Santa doesn't need the road plowed to get here! So his presents will surely make it under the tree for Jacob and Andrew.
