Mt. Vernon Christmas


Here is Gracie enjoying the three brothers swing!

Grace, Jonah and Ben eating yummy Christmas treats!


Here we are playing "beauty shop"! This is one of Grace's favorite gifts from Christmas! (Could I be in trouble here??)


Dad with Jonah and Thomas the Train. No, Thomas is not super glued to Jonah's little hand!

Gracie loves to pretend to be "Wyatt" from the new show Super Why.

Thanks to Mom/"Granma," who filled our tummies with delicious food and treats. You made our Christmas very special!!!

Snow




We took the kids sledding after our Christmas morning at Lindenwood University and mommy brought the camera all to realize the batteries were completely dead. Unfortunately, I missed out on some great photos. Gracie couldn't get enough of the sledding with daddy. Jonah was very much into making a "baby" Frosty the snowman while dad and Grace made a giant Frosty. Gracie was very, very concerned about leaving Frosty at Lindenwood all alone because he wouldn't have anyone to "play with or give him hugs".

Christmas at home


Cookies made by tiny little hands, milk and a note to Santa asking him to please come early to our "red house".


Gracie opening her present and Jonah opening a Hershey Kiss.


Yes, more chocolate!!


Gracie proudly wearing her "pink, sparkly tiara made especially for her by Santa's elves".

Christmas at home was tons of fun! Gracie couldn't wait to rip open her presents from Santa and all Jonah wanted to do was eat "canee" (candy) or "choc-lit" all morning. Christmas is so enjoyable with little ones around. We were even blessed with 8 inches of snow on the day we had our family Christmas. It couldn't have been more perfect!!

Gingerbread House




We have a made it a Robinson family tradition to make a Gingerbread House every December! I think more candy made it in Grace and Jonah's mouth than on the Gingerbread House! It was great fun.

Jonah is doing so well and we are experiencing our first entire month since he was born with absolutely NO illness on his part! Yipeeeee!!

Christmas Fun!






Christmas time is SO much fun with little ones around! I hear the words "Sanna", "Cwismas Twee", "Cwismas Wights", and "Cannee" all day long! Aaron and I have also enjoyed listening to Jingle Bells over and over and over and over.... well, you get the point!

We visited the Galt House where we enjoyed a story, puppet show, visit with Santa, and a fresh baked cookie from Mrs. Claus! Gracie was of course thrilled to see Santa and after a bit of encouragement she bravely walked up to him and sat in his lap. It was so cute. Jonah, on the other hand, was gripping onto my shirt for dear life and took no part in sitting in Santa's lap. He said, "Sanna scar-ee Mommy!"

Choo Choo Party!

I can't believe our baby is almost two! Time sure does fly. Here are some pictures of his early birthday party! We had so much fun. It was great seeing all of our friends and having "Granma" there! Thanks to everyone who came and helped us celebrate!
