Christmas Card

Aloha Friends and Family!

It's that time again, when the Tutor's do a smilebox Christmas Card instead of sending Christmas cards through the mail! :) We hope that you all enjoy this card as well!

Be sure that you use the arrows at the bottom of the screen so that you can look at all of the photos at your pace. If you click on the pictures, they will enlarge for you and the videos will too. Oh, and turn up your speakers!

We wish you all a very Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year!

Love,
Ben, Janzell, Naomi and Harley Tutor

Santa Outfits

Naomi ended up with 2 cute Santa outfits! She wore this first one at our Ward Christmas Party on Friday the 11th, and then wore the outfit at the end of this blog on Saturday the 12th at a Ward Christmas Party that Ben played Sax at in a Big Band that he's in. Naomi is just darling and is growing sooo fast! She's standing up soo good and walking while holding on to things, so she will soon be walking!! Crazy fast! We enjoy having her in our life and can't wait for Christmas to come!

First interaction with Santa and she didn't even cry! What a good girl!!!

I got Ben to let me open my Christmas present early! He got me a NEW CAMERA!! WOO HOO!! This is one of the cool functions - love it!

SNOW!!!!!

Naomi had her first taste of snow (literally)! :)

We are going to spend Thanksgiving up in Park City, Utah and there will be lots more snow up there for her to play in! This was just a tester to see what she'd do in the snow...she wasn't very happy! :) hahaha.

Here's a sample of her fun....there will be more to come of course, since Grandpa Kim is in town!

COUSINS - NOT TWINS! :)

So...my sister-in-law, Masina, had a baby girl 4 months after Naomi was born! So fun right? They'll be the same age, same grade in school, grow up together, etc. However...Naomi is SUPER petite and Milena (Masina's daughter) is SUPER "not petitie!" :) haha. Because of this, EVERYWHERE we go together, we get asked if they are TWINS! *In both Spanish and English! ;)

Anyone who knows me, knows that I actually DO want twins (even after having one baby, yes, I know, I'm crazy!), but I do. So of course I get them matching outfits - even if they're cousins and not twins - and sure, that may send the wrong message...but for real?!? They don't really look alike! Okay, they do a little bit - I mean - they are cousins for goodness sake! But...you be the judge...

The pictures are of them from when Milena was born up until a few days ago - and they should be in order. However this program isn't the most user friendly, so the post doesn't have the best look to it and by the end of the night, I just gave up and the perfectionist in me just has to "deal with it!" ahhhhhhhhhh!!! So, sorry up front for the ugly layout and the lack of information blurbs next to the pics. Enjoy anyways.

PS - make sure you check out the video! It's too cute!

This is a sweet video of Naomi and Milena when Milena was only a few weeks old.

Halloween 2009!!!!!!!!!!

I'm finally getting around to posting some pics of us during Halloween! Ben and I wanted to be a Queen and King and we wanted to make Naomi a jester! :) But I didn't think that I had the time (and talent) to make her that cool outfit, so alas, she is what EVERY GIRL is at least one time in their halloween career...a PRINCESS! I know...so generic...but it was cute all together! And I really wanted to make an outfit for Harley - to be the prince or knight - but I again, didn't have enough time. Oh well, halloween still turned out great and we all had fun. Enjoy our pics.

We entered Naomi into a contest at the Utah Baby Expo and the grand prize winner gets a free photo session and a $300 portrait package! We don't know if we have won or not yet, but we had fun doing our own photo session with her new cute tutu onesie outfit thing. And when I say "we had fun" I mean - I had fun, while daddy had to hold up the background the whole time! You're a good husband & daddy, Ben!

I'm having a hard time picking my favorite. Which one do you like the best?
