One month later...

What a December. First, we did have another real snowstorm & I had a sore back & arms to prove it. The girls loved the snow & we made snow mountains out front from all the snow dumped in front of our driveway for them to slide down.

They both rolled snowballs to make snowmen, but then Sofia was too pooped to add their arms & eyes! My four year olds make me laugh more than any people I know.

Their diet pretty much consists of macaroni & cheese, chicken tenders, peanut butter & jelly and soynut butter & jelly and yogurt, BUT, the one thing I found that they love is HUMMUS! If they only knew what it was made of! But here they are showing a little Patriot pride & some product placement for Tribe Hummus:

Now on to Christmas . . . Here is our beautiful tree - It was the best one we've gotten ... EVER, in my opinion - plump & perfect. I say 'was' because we disposed of it yesterday. That's a whole other story I'll share next time I post - what a ridiculous comedy of errors and a big mess, too.

For this picture, I wasn't in a very good position to get the star, too, but it's up there. It is just very difficult to get everyone to sit still & smile for a lot of pictures, so I take what I can get!

We went to Nonni's for Christmas & then to Aunt Sandy's & Uncle Andy's. Here are some pics of the girls in actual dresses!! They looked so adorable I couldn't stand it! I just wanted to eat them up. I took a lot of pictures, but I won't overwhelm the blog with all the pictures! (fyi - Sofia's on the left & Ava's on the right)

Most of the pictures I have of them look something like this one on the right. One is making a strange face, the other one is talking...which is funny because bring them around anyone else & they don't talk much at all. At home, however, I find it hard to get them to stay quiet...

So it's hard enough to get my girls to stand beautifully together, add in their cousin Jack & then it becomes one tough assignment. The trick? Mmmmmm...COOKIES!!!

All in all we had a great holiday & it's always fun to get to see Christmas through the eyes of children. It was awesome to see everyone and I am very grateful for all the love in our lives.

Oh yeah, I'm sure I'll catch grief from someone if I don't include a picture of me & Garry, too . . . So here you go!

Aaaannnddd, here's an even better one with all of us:

Now we're all famous on the blog!

Oh wait, I need the one of the godparents, too!

Phew. I think I'm done now...Until the next post.
