Tea Party...

Like I said in the last post; Abbey got her first tea-set from Aunt Rene and Uncle Gary for Christmas. Well, it's already being put to good use!!!

Ethan played tea party with Abbey this morning...


Then melt a mommy's heart... Daddy played with Abbey. He set it all up and even tried the pretend lemonade!

Annual Pommer family Christmas...

Andrew and I have been hosting the Pommer Christmas for a few years now. We normally have it Christmas eve; but knowing Andrew's cousins were coming into town for a short time, we pushed back the celebration! For a few years I have done a turkey, which is never a mistake! But last year we switched it up and did a ham, not doing that again! This year we did a tri-tip steak, YUMMY! The next question was how are we going to get 11 adults in the same room to eat??? Well, we did it! With the dining table pushed as close as possible to the side, then our kitchen table on the other wall; I borrowed a small kids table from my friend Karla, and you will see the result further down in the pictures!
Now on to usher in a new year! 2011 was a great year in our house, I hope it was for yours also!

Updates on the kiddos...

Eric:
Has lost 4 teeth since May. 2 just since December 1st; just in time to sing "All I want for Christmas is my two front teeth!"
Eric turned 8; I can't believe it!

Ethan:
Is enjoying his pre-k class. And upon his last dentist appt. he's permanent bottom teeth are ready to push the baby teeth away. (insert mommy's sad face here)

Abigail:
Is almost 9 months, and has a tooth about to show itself (like within the next few days!)
Today I looked over and she had pulled herself up to standing but hasn't done it again, and I wasn't quick enough with the camera!

Andrew has the next 5 days off and we are enjoying his time off! Andrew took both boys up to the mountains yesterday for some inter-tubing, they had a blast! Tomorrow is our Pommer family Christmas! Looking forward to great family gathering and a wonderful tri-tip steak!
