William lost his 1st Tooth

On Dec. 22nd William lost his 1st tooth. A few days before he was trying to untie some shoe strings with his teeth and loosened the 2 bottom center teeth. After he lost the 1st one, we realized the teeth must have already been loose because a new one is already growing in.

Kimball Christmas dinner with the Bitton's

We had our Kimball family dinner twice this year. Once with Kayci and her family and once without. This was the first dinner with Kayci. I was a better aunt this time and took pictures of the Bitton's.
Baby Claire sleeping with Aunt Jacqui. She is the cutest and sweetest baby. I think she cried (if you call it a cry) once while we were there.

I can just see this being Kayci in a couple of years with 3 little ones running around.

My little Mason man.

Grace is a great big sister...even to other babies.

Cute Little Grace!

William loves to take pictures. And obviously Jeff loves to pose for them...

Peek-a-boo...

Aunt Suzette's cat-William had the camera again.


It was great to have dinner with you guys and be able to visit. We miss you guys tons. Have a Happy New Year. Love ya.

What a great Big Brother...

With all the hussle and bussle of the holidays, my boys have not gotten the attention they deserve. But I think they are doing just fine. William is a great big brother and takes care of Mason with love and care.

Watching cartoons together.


The other day Mason was playing on the floor on a blanket, he started to fuss and then I couldn't hear him anymore. So I went to check on him and here he was sound asleep. William was getting a blanket to cover him up. William was so proud because when Mason fussed he got Mason to sleep.

The Christmas Sweater

On Dec. 17th, Brady and I took Jake, Alyssa, Kayla and Mandy to see Glenn Beck's the Christmas Sweater. What an amazing story. It was in a theather, so here is the trailer for it. If you ever have the chance to read the book or see this I highly recommend it.

After the show, Brady and I had to get the boys from a neighbor's house, here is what my kids do when we are not around. (Lucky for Kayla, she was a sleep on the couch)

William's Preschool Christmas Program

William's Preschool put on a small Christmas Program on Dec. 15th.
William's part was..."This is the manager, sweet hay for a bed. Waiting for Jesus to cradle his head." I have the whole thing on video, but it is too long to post. So here are a few pictures.

Smiles...as his dad calls him.

After decorating the tree, the other kids got ready for bed. Mason on the other hand was wide awake and wanted to play. Mom was straightening the house, so dad took these pictures of Smiles so I wouldn't miss out.

That same night after our normal ritual, Mason was just chillin' in our bed. He looked so dang cute.

See that smile in his eyes? We have the happiest baby on earth...

December is so busy...

So much has been going on...just thought I'd try to bring you up to date with our family.

1st Monday of December is our annual Neighborhood Christmas Walk. Santa is always there and all the houses in our horseshoe decorate with lights. The street is lined on both sides with luminaries. For FHE we do the Christmas walk and then we come home to get warm. This year William pulled out his scriptures and told us the story of Jesus & Santa Clause. Ohhhh...does he have an imagination.

Just my cute little Mason man...

Brady's birthday is Dec. 12th. We went to Tucano's for dinner, leaving all the kids at home. Just the adults. After dinner we went to Brady's favorite place, BYU Creamery for ice cream.
