Wow we were spoiled this Christmas! On Christmas Eve we received a couple of packages from Heather, Austin's birthmother and we ALL got spoiled! Austin got some cute overalls and a John Deere construction toy that lights up and makes noise, Gayla received a jewelry watch which I have wanted!, and Tom received a Big Jud's shirt! He wears that t-shirt with pride as he ate a full one pound burger there when we went up to Idaho! Grandpa Eliason sent Austin a cute card with some cash and fake money to play with:) Austin gets more fun every day. You can see Tom and Austin playing HotWheels and not sure who had more fun. Austin still says "Oh Shoot" and it sounds like "Oh Sh**".....funny phase we hope....He has started taking a car or train to bed to sleep with. Whenever we pull in the garage whoever is in the passenger side has to get out (since garage is limited in space) and we take Austin out of his car seat to let him ride on Tom's lap while he pulls the car in. He LOVES it and pushes all of the buttons in the car on that short ride. You never know if lights are going to be turned on, music going to be cranked up loud or cruise control will be set. He is still a chill little guy and sleeps like a champ every night! The day after Christmas we went swimming with Santa at Kiwanis park in Tempe. Austin got a kick out of the wave pool and he let Santa come right up to him and chat about Christmas. He had fun with Rick and Eileen's kids. We went to see the temple lights after and Hunter and Hayden held Austin's hands the whole night and Austin felt like a big kid and loved every minute of it! Gayla is starting to get a little more energy these days which is good. Already 11 weeks along! But who is counting right?!
