This post was supposed to be uploaded weeks ago, but as you know how it goes sometimes, its a little late.
The first part of December was very busy, preparing for the season. To welcome the season, it "snowed" in Houston for Rob's birthday, and Rob even got part of the day off! Awesome. The next day we headed up to aunt Tara's to make - gingerbread houses with cousins. Benjamin loved eating all of the candy and treats. It is a very fun tradition for the kids that robs family loves to do.
A week later, Tara, Rob's mom and I did a Christmas baking marathon---making nanimo bars, butter tarts, short bread, chocolate cherry rolls, and bachelor buttons. Yes, we did it all in a couple of hours, and enjoyed it very much.
This year has been very fun for Benjamin. He loves our nativity set, and loves to look at baby jesus and has become obsessed with babies. Benjamin also loves santa, the christmas tree, and even has tried opening presents under the tree. When we took benjamin up to tara's wards santa, benjamin could not wait to see santa. Once his turn came, he quietly sat on santa's lap "talking" to him. I was quite impressed because most kids his age are terrified of santa. It will be fun to see how benjamin will like christmas morning.
