Better Late Than Never.....

I'm FINALLY posting pics from Christmas-time.

It was SUCH a special, fun time. Seeing Christmas through the girls' eyes was soooo much fun! It was a wonderful couple of days with great weather (as usual), tho a bit chilly on our annual walk. We are so blessed that we're able to have both of our families together.

Siena gazing lovingly @ her gingerbread house. (I'm SURE she wanted to eat the whole thing!)

Aunt Cherie teaching Siena how to "Shhhh".

Our family (minus Scott & the boys)

The girls put out cookies & milk for Santa & a carrot for Rudolph

Having fun opening all their presents.

Siena so excited she got 'Dumbo'.

One of my favorite meals of the year... Christmas breakfast

Sara admiring her new Snow White dress

The girls wearing their new Princess dresses on their new pink tricycles!!

Christmas-time Fun!

So, Grandma bought the girls too-cute pajamas for Christmas. Take notice of how she put their names on them. Sara's is perfectly straight across, indicitive of how she plays & how her mind works. Siena's is all over the place, which is SO her!! lol Here's just a few pics of our photo session. Always trying to get the perfect pic!! (You'd think I'd have given up by now. hee hee)

Then, after me begging, bribbing, etc... they'd had enough!!!!! Think the one below is the perfect one?? LOL

This season has been so fun. Although they don't really "get" what's going on, they LOVE it! We've driven around at least 20 times looking at X-Mas lights. All I hear is "More lights, Mommy", "Santa Claus!!!!", "Candy Cans!!", etc... I can't wait til Christmas morning. :-)

We also went to pick out our Christmas tree. I just LOVE the smell of the trees. It puts me into the Christmas spirit immediately. So does all the Christmas music, which I love, except that it starts playing at Thanksgiving time!! Siena loves listening to it & singing along- see below video. Here's the pics of our tree-finding adventure.

"Hmmm. What tree do we like?" (Is that hair difference hysterical?)

She looks so cute, I just had to post.

Daddy & his girls

I just love their little voices. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rpK4waMjz5Q

Memories.....

So, Sara was playing with her twin babies one night... feeding them, putting them to bed, etc... When I saw how she put them to bed, it brought back such memories!!

So proud of herself

Here's how she put the babies to bed & it reminded me SO much of them when they were 1st home from the hospital.

My little peanuts

Jeff & I went to his friend's amazing wedding up in L.A. & we had an entire 24 hours to ourselves!! :-)

Siena wanted to wear my hat when we were out shopping. This girl loves her "high heels", "pretty dresses" and anything "so cute". (I love it!!) I think she looks like a little Parisian girl. Adorable.
