I hate making decisions

We starting finishing our basement about a year ago. We didn't do much at first besides some framing and wiring. However, in the last few weeks we've really progressed. The drywall is up and the taping and mudding have begun. So now it's time to get serious with the decision making. Here are the things I have no idea what to do with:

*Color of walls, carpet and counter tops
*How big should the bar be
*What type of flooring do we put behind the bar and in the office - wood or tile?

These are just a few that are running through my mind. I have a few pictures of how the basement currently looks. We need to finish is asap because we are running out of room for all of Kellan's toys.

Christmas was the bomb!

This year Christmas was one of the best it has been. Kellan got to spend some quality time with both sets of grandparents including aunts, uncles and soon to be cousins. Enjoy these next few pictures of Kellan's Christmas.

Hope everyone enjoyed their holidays and that everyone has a safe new years!

More winter fun

Kellan got to meet Santa for the 2nd time this weekend. Tim's work holds a Christmas party for the kids every year. All you have to do is buy a $20 gift and they reimburse you. Pretty nice huh?

Here he is so excited to see Santa again.

Getting his gift

We also went to a friends house for dinner on Friday and they have a little girl about 6 months older than Kellan. Here is Kellan loving Ava's dolly stroller.

It's Winter Time!!

Our little monster has become quite the climber lately. One of his current favorite things to do is climb up on the chair and sit and relax. Sometimes he'll sit there and watch Mickey Mouse Clubhouse, other times he'll sit there waiting for us to find him. Either way, he looks so adorable sitting there.

We got snow for the first time about 2 weeks ago, but nothing significant. Then about 2 days ago we got a little bit more, so we decided to let Kellan hang outside with daddy while he shovelled the driveway.

I certainly hope everyone had a wonderful Thanksgiving. Kellan's 2nd Thanksgiving was good. He wasn't really into the turkey, mashed potatoes or stuffing, but he did enjoy some pumpkin pie and whipped cream.

It's hard to tell from this picture of Kellan, but it was so cute, he kept putting his hands in his pockets of his vest and looked so cute. He loved that vest and wanted to wear it even over his camo jammies.

The night before Thanksgiving my high school besties and I did our annual gathering. I love that I've been out of high school for 9 years and every time we get together it's like we've never been apart.

Meeting Santa

Santa was already in the mall so we took full advantage of the short line and introduced Kellan. He actually got to meet the Mr. and Mrs. He did great too .He never once fussed or even tried to get down.

My mom and I even got to meet Mr. and Mrs. Santa

Got a new Job

Yep. That's why I have been neglecting this sight. My new job keeps me EXTREMELY busy. I'm in my second week and am already doing overtime. I really like my new job, it's just really stressful so I find myself needing to go to bed right after Kellan goes down.

I really miss all of the ladies I used to work with, but my boss was a complete jerk and we clashed in every way. 

So since I'm working in a different town, that means different daycare for Kellan. It's not going so well so far. The day he was suppose to start he got pink eye (in both eyes) so he missed his first day.

Changing the subject. Here is one of Kellans favorite new games to play with daddy.

And here's Kellan in his new Toy Story tent.
