Christmas Day!




The long awaited day finally came with tons of Surprises!
We had a great Christmas this year
and the girls were very excited about their gifts.

The Nativity

This year Emmie was too big to be baby Jesus.
So we made her the Angel - Abbie was Mary - Maddie was Joseph -
and of course Shem was the donkey.
Acting out The Nativity Scene is one of my kids
FAVORITE parts of Christmas.

Sledding on Shem's Birthday


This is how Shem decided to spend the day on his birthday.
We took the girls sledding,
with some friends on Christmas Eve.
It was really cold but really fun.
Shem had to prove that he's not getting old.


Happy Birthday Babe - Hope it was a great one - WE LOVE YOU!

Maddies School Play

Maddie just did her first play and YES she loved it.
She got to be the narrator because she knows how to read.
It was very exciting for her. They told a story about toys
going on a train ride and they sang tons of Christmas songs.

THE WINNER IS....

Abbie Gayle - won tickets to Disney on Ice.
So Saturday I took the girls to go see Disney Princesses on Ice.
The weather was bad but the show was worth it.
My kids sat still the entire time.

Look What I Just Made

I saw the idea for these really cute sweater dresses at
Maddie needs winter dresses right now, so I had to try it.
They were simple and she liked the red one enough to wear it to school today.

Am I really old enough to have a six year old?

12 month Dr. Appiontment

We just got back from the doctor and Emmie is still tiny.
She was 17lbs. 60zs. and 27.5 inches long.
This puts her in the fifth percentile.
She is healthy and strong with six teeth.

After persents it was on to the huge cupcake.
