Christmas with the Brokopp's

The following posts are our family Christmas with Andy's family. It went by way too fast. We had so much fun. I hope to get my family Christmas on here soon. This took my long enough and it is time for bed!

How beautiful!

This is my beautiful niece Charity. She is growing up so fast. I can't believe she is 7 already. I remember when Andy and I were dating and I was at his house while we were waiting for the phone call of her birth. Mom B kept calling to ask about Alice (Charity's mom). Andy finally called (they were in Africa) and we got word that she arrived. I couldn't wait to meet her.

Sammy is such an adorable, lovable boy. He was born in the states and I even got to visit him the day he was born. I was working that night. I thought he was such a beautiful baby.

I love you both to pieces and miss having you around. I cherish all the time we do get together!

Too much sugar

I think they all had too much sugar and forgot to brush their teeth. What great stocking stuffers.

Stars

These are my star kids! They each had these in their stockings and looked so cute! Too bad they are already broken!

Inseparable

These 3 were inseparable the entire time we were with them. It makes me sad they live in Africa because Isaiah won't get to grow up with them. But the times together are even more special.

Which one is real?

Charity got this doll from Aunt Joy and she was as big, if not bigger than Bella. Everyone would see the baby doll face down and start to grab for it thinking it was Bella. Too funny!

Charity loved her baby doll. Poor thing was sick with a fever the whole time. She had so much fun, but had to rest.

Pretty Princess

Bella showing off how cute she is!

Lots of present

Isaiah loves his dump truck

Bella showing off her bed. She slept in the laundry basket since I didn't feel like dragging the pack-n-play along. She did very well.

Opening gifts

These are pictures of us opening gifts with Andy's family. The kids had so much fun together.

Bella slept through the whole thing!

Aunt Joy

Aunt Joy is always the highlight of anything she is involved in. Especially with the kids. They love her and she loves them.

Isaiah loved to hug and climb on Charity the entire time we were there.

Working the camera

Bella doing what she does best, looking good for the camera. Of course, Nana got some cute ones!

Cuter than words

My mom was snapping pictures of Isaiah one night after his bath as he was drinking his milk. He was being so funny! She captured some absolutely wonderful pictures of him. He is so handsome!

Bathing beauty

Bella getting a bath. She likes her baths now. She is getting so chubby. Check out those cheeks!!

So content after being clean

Alpacas

My parents took Isaiah to see some Alpacas and goats after making cookies (see next post). It is one of the Dr's from the hospital that my mom knows. They have an open house every year. Isaiah had so much fun with them. He just walked around with them.
