Christmas

Merry Christmas!

We spent Christmas Eve with Jen and Dan and Jen's parents.  We had a great time and ate waaaaaay too much food.

Lola getting a little too much pumpkin pie!

Sharing a laugh with Jen.

Opening mommy's present.

That darn tree needs to go away soooooon.

Opening her new stuffed puppy from Santa.

Lola got a ball from Santa.

The girls are wondering what kinda family they were born into...

Playing with new toys.

Lola's new trick...making her hand disappear.

A few pre-Christmas pictures.

Just a few recent pics to share...

The girls were sharing bit of turkey from their lunch with each other. It was pretty cute to me and pretty funny to them. :)

Isla practicing her Christmas tunes on the piano.

 Lola looking like it might be time for a nap.

Playing "Peek a Boo"with each other. They definitely have started playing with each other more.

Pure joy.

Yep...the tree is an issue. 

Isla just started walking behind the push toy.  She has come leaps and bounds in the walking dept in the last week or so. Yea Isla!!

Thankful

Happy Thanksgiving! 

We are so thankful.

Happy Thanksgiving. 

Now, bring on Christmas!

Our friend Lisa made the girls these amazing quilts and delivered them on Tuesday. We love them!

The girls helping Papa put together their new toy storage shelves.

Having a little chat over the fence. This was right after their afternoon nap. I could hear them chatting away upstairs and when I went up there it was like they were having a little neighborly chat.

Isla recently discovered the tupperware cabinet.

This is a 0-3 month hat. She still wears it!

Lola thought it was pretty hilarious to smear avocado all over herself while eating the other day. It was all in her hair too. Such a silly monkey. :)

Backpacks...and more.

We got an awesome hiking backpack from our friends...THANKS Holmes Family and then purchased another.  It has been great and we have been on a few hikes already.  The girls really seem to enjoy being in them.

2 Little ladies in a laundry basket.

So much fun!

Milk mustache? Nope, going for the full on milk beard!

Too bad these girls have nothing to play with.

Unloading the dishwasher now is a bit harder than it used to be with all the "help".

Halloween!

Happy Halloween everyone!  A few pics of our adorable bumble bee and giraffe.

Jen and Dan manned the fort while we went out to a few houses to trick or treat. Thanks so much guys!

Alison and Tom's was the first house the girls ever trick or treated at. :)

The Great Pumpkin Patch.

We had a great time at the Whistling Well Farm.  The girls had fun picking their pumpkins and watching all the fun animals and people. :)

The poor lonely donkey. He was kinda off on his own and didn't draw the crowd as much.

                                                 

The girls were pretty interested in watching the chickens.
