Christmas Card Photo Shoot

There was baking to be done. Grandma and her old friend from college, Cathy made almost 22 batches of cookies!! They baked from 10am until almost 7pm on Saturday...of course Jayden had to get in on the action and into the tubberware she went. Of all the toys the tubberware is what gets her attention most. Jayden was showing off her talents of master-crawler and standing up! Now she clapps her hands all by herself too! This she just started on Sunday (or at least it was the first time we've seen it). It was a very long day for Jayden and in the end...she slept til 8am the next day!




First thing was Jayden's Christmas Card Photo Shoot! It took all four of us for this...just like a professional model photo shoot! We had the photographer (Grandma), the lighting expert (Grandpa), the primper & prop master (mommy) and finally the holder of the baby (daddy). Bet you didn't realize a photo shoot takes that many people!! After two wardrobe changes and 65 digital photos...we finally chose 3 pictures for the cards...the following are just random pictures taking during the fun!




It was also time to "deck the halls" at the Prestholdts! Well, okay, maybe not "deck the halls" but to do some decorating to say the least. Daddy likes doing the Christmas Village each year at Grandma & Grandpa's house. Never have we seen the same step up...infact, this year he made 'rolling hills'.
