Christmas Card

This isn't the actual card we sent out but a Christmassy version of the same picture. 

We wish everyone a Merry Christmas with those you love and a Happy New Year in 2011!

School Pictures

We finally got Grace's pictures today.  She was home with an ear infection on picture day so had to do retakes.  I was starting to think they would never get here.  I think they both look beautiful and the pictures were worth the wait!

Christmas is Coming!

 Only 16 more days until he gets here!

She wanted her picture taken when she was hugging the dog.  Daphne will never look at the camera at the right time. 

Lila and I are having a good time lately while Grace is still at school in the afternoons.  I recently realized that Lila didn't want to nap in the afternoon then didn't want to go to bed at night, sigh, time for naptime to end.  She is falling asleep much more quickly at night now and I love the extra time with her. 

We are all looking forward to Santa getting here.  Grace keeps changing her list, we're going to see him next week so she needs to have it finalized by then.  Lila picked out 2 toys from the TOYS catalog and has stuck with wanting those 2 things. I'm hoping nobody comes up with anything new the week of Christmas like Grace did a couple years ago with the violin. 

We have the Santa countdown calendar and have been gluing a cotton ball onto his beard every day so far in December. That beard is filling up quickly. 

Christmas is coming!
