Christmas was so exciting this year at our house.  We thought for sure Sawyer would tear into all of the gifts.  Instead he wasn't very interested in opening gifts but when he did he would tear one piece of paper at a time, it was very cute.  We had a VERY busy couple of days!  On Christmas Eve day we ventured out in the snow and went to see Grandpa Todd, Grandma June, Great Gpa Chuck, Great Aunt Ann, and Uncles Brad and BJ.  Sawyer was very spoiled with gifts!  He received a rocking/bouncing horse, a musical drum, chuck the truck, a sit and spin, john deere dishes and more!  Our car was FULL when we left Reinbeck.  Christmas eve night we spent with Dustin's family, Oma and great grandma Frohn.  Sawyer was a little more interested in the gifts and opened a few.  He got some books, a race track, some blocks, and more.  We ate supper and then made our way home.

Christmas morning Sawyer woke up and walked out into the living room.  Santa placed the presents where he thought Sawyer would see them first thing but somehow he missed them and went straight for his toybox, haha.  So with some coaxing he finally realized there were presents.  He tore a few pieces of paper off the gifts but again Mommy opened most of them for him.  Santa was very generous to our little man.  Sawyer got a BIG bag of Mega Blocks, a Mega Blocks table, a little work bench, books, the movie Bolt, and more!  After breakfast we headed to Grandma Gigi's and Papa's house in New Hartford.  There we opened more gifts, a cars bean bag chair, a little people airport, books, clothes, and more.  That afternoon for lunch we headed to Plainfield for lunch with Ashlee's family.  Sawyer had so much fun playing with his cousin's Emma and Avery.  He even tried to climb in the baby swing with baby Mia.

Now begins the task of trying to go through the old toys and mix in the new.  Our plan for 2011 is to turn our upstairs attic into a toy room.  It is mostly finished already but we use it for storage space right now.  We think it will make a great playroom for our little guy and then hopefully give us some space back in our living room. :)

Happy 15 months Sawyer!

Now- 15 Months old!

Wow, it's hard to believe Sawyer is 15 months old already.  It seems like we just brought him home from the hospital and had no clue what we were in for, haha.  We took him in for his 15 month check up to see Dr. Sims at Covenant.  He did great till it was time for the shots. :(  He weighed 30.2 lbs, is 31 3/4 inches long, and his head is 19 3/4 inches.  He is growing well and perfectly healthy.  We are amazed at how much he changes everyday and we love watching him grow and change!  He is such a happy boy.  He loves to give hugs and kisses to Daddy and Mommy.  He is finally starting to talk too!  So far I have heard him say Hi, sit, what's that, papa, gigi, and of course mom and dad.  He loves to play with his toys and enjoys pulling all of his toys out of his toy box as mommy is trying to put them away.  Happy 15 months Sawyer!

Family Christmas pictures

Our Family 2010

Sawyer got to hold an ornament

Devilish grin- Haha mom and dad I'm touching the tree!

Our little stud!

Today (12-14-10) the boys and I went and had family pictures taken!  I begged them both to please behave and cooperate for me, haha! I just wanted to get some Christmas cards made.  Dustin did great but Sawyer is another story.  He just wanted to run around the studio and wanted nothing to do with getting his picture taken.  Somehow we managed to get a few good pics.  Enjoy!

Santa came to town!

The Frohn's with Santa

 Santa came to the Target Distribution for the employees to bring their children in.  We thought this would be way better then taking Sawyer to see the mall santa.  We were wrong! :)

Sawyer wanted nothing to do with Santa

First Haircut!

Before his haircut

It's hard to believe our lil man is almost 15 months old!  He is growing like a weed and not only is he growing, but so was his hair.  So on Decemeber 6th, 2010 (Ashlee's birthday), Sawyer had his first haircut!  We went and visited Wanda Vanmill just outside of New Hartford for the big adventure.  Daddy (Dustin) had to work so we took Grandma Gigi along.  Sawyer did great!  He sat on Grandma's lap so that Mommy could take pictures.  Sawyer was distracted with a sucker which worked great.  Our lil man is all grown up!

Our handsome little man after his haircut

Here we go!

Welcome!  I thought our family would join the world of blogging.  We keep in touch with a lot of family and friends through facebook but I know there are some who do not have that so I thought this would be a great way to keep in touch and to keep everyone updated on our family, especially Sawyer!  I hope you check back often and I will try to keep this updated and share pictures often!
