Hey There Big Guy

We were casually strolling through Ikea when what to our wandering eye would appear?  Santa in the children's department.  I guess the elves had too many orders this year so Santa was picking up a few items!



Elle wasn't so sure at first.

Chatting about Christmas eve.

Posing for a picture as Elle won't get out of her stroll.

Santa even checked in with Baylor.

What a beautiful Santa!  Guess he shops at Ikea every Christmas, next year we will be dressed up in case we run into the big guy again!!

Breakfast Cupcakes

Best quick breakfast ever!!

Super easy recipe:

Breakfast cupcakes

Butter
6 Bread or English Muffins
6 slices bacon
6 large eggs
1 cup cheese
salt and pepper

1.Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Lightly butter 6 standard muffin cups.

Cut round circles using cup or biscuit cutter out of break or English muffin (I used English muffin).  Lightly butter.  Sprinkle cheese on.

2.In a large skillet, cook bacon over medium, until almost crisp, 4 minutes, flipping once. (It will continue to cook in the oven.) Lay 1 bacon slice in each bread cup and crack an egg over each. Season with salt and pepper. Bake until egg whites are just set, 10-15 minutes. Run a small knife around cups to loosen toasts. Serve immediately

Ornament With Grandma S

Baylor is quite excited about his first Christmas!



Grandma S came over and gave Baylor a bell ornament for the tree.

They had to find the perfect spot on the tree first.

Perfection!

Go For A Ride

After seeing Santa.  Elle and Daddy rode on the carousel!



Elle even gave the lady her token.

It took a little while to find the perfect horse!

Such a big girl!

Waving to Baylor and Momma!

This is the picture we used for our Christmas card :)

Elle has been rocking her new purse all week which she got from my co-worker Kim!  It is such a cute purse, Elle wanted her picture taken with it!! Thank you Kim for thinking of Elle!!  Kim also made Baylor two more pictures for his room which I plan to post soon as they are amazing!!
