Dad - This Is A Bumbo!

I had to include this video for my Dad who, when he asked what Leah might like and I responded "A Bumbo" was feling a little out of the loop. Yes, this is a bumbo and you can see why it is so fun for babies, and moms! When she first sat in it she directly turned her attention to her toes and has been playing with them at every diaper change since! I enjoy being able to see her moving around more and interacting with the world around her. It does have a tray that attaches to it to hold toys or eventually food. Anyway I hope you enjoy this little video clip as much as I do! She's just soooooooo cute!

Angelinne is saying "It's my favorite movie! It's my favorite movie!" But really I don't know if she has ever see this movie. Obviously she can tell by the cover that it is a movie that she is going to love, and she was just so happy. They were both excited, you can see Laurel in the background gathering up her treasures. So fun!

Christmas Video

Sorry this video clip is so short I ran out of disk space, but you get the idea of what Christmas morning was all about. The girls were very sweet and happy about everything they got!

Christmas

We had a very Merry Christmas, and the girls enjoyed opening their presents. We didn't get them much, but they were excited none the less and it was infectious. We slept in and opened presets, then went to mom's to open our presents from her, then went to visit Grandma & Grandpa Phillips, who fed us breakfast and gave us even more presents! We had dinner at Betsy's after a quick break and 'battery charge' at home, then we all settled our brains for a long winter's nap. Hope your Christmas was great! We love you all and wish you a Happy New Year!

We're Ready Santa!

We haven't taken many photos lately, oops, here's two of the same one of Angie and her big brown eyes, look at those lashes! And my favorite of Leah is the one where she's playing with her toes!

Christmas Fun

Laurel made a gingerbread house at school and brought it home for us to share

I had to take a picture of it before it was gone, and Laurel enjoyed posing for those pictures!

Angie has been sneaking into my bed, I was surpised how well they have been sleeping so close to eachother. I thought they would wake eachother up, but they sleep like this for hours! Aren't they sweet?

Giving Thanks!

For family, friends, healthy beautiful kids... these are just a few things I am thankful for this Thanksgiving! I couln't have asked for a better Thanksgiving week, with the surprise arrival of my brother and his family, including their newborn baby girl, as well as a long-awaited and highly anticipated arrival of my Dad and Mom from Georgia! We had a cozy family-centered holiday, where every day was perfect! Thanks Dad and Mom for the visit, and thanks to all my wonderful friends and family who show us so much love and support! Enjoy these photos of myself, and my girls, Laurel, Angie, and Leah!
