Christmas

As kids get more into the holiday, it makes it worth every effort we put into the day as parents. Having Emmy be old enough to understand that Santa was coming and to really enjoy her presents, made it such a fun day! It was fun to start our own family traditions this year as well. There are lots of traditions different families have for Christmas and Christmas Eve, and I borrowed a few from some families I know.


Here are a few pictures of our sweet girls over the holidays.

Emmy blinged out with her Ariel stuff - shoes, earrings, necklace, headband, ring, did I miss something?

Maisy opening her Noah's Ark. She loves it almost as much as Emmy, HA!

Emmy's 3rd Birthday

Our big girl is just getting so grown up! For her birthday, we had a small family party at the park. Her P-Paw was in town so that made her day! She is obsessed with Ariel, and almost every gift she got was themed around her favorite princess. She had a great time running around the park with her cousins, eating cake, opening presents, and overall enjoying the day. As a big three year old girl she is now going to Primary and loves it, she is just growing up so fast! We are so happy to have such a loving little girl and such a good big sister in our family.

Maisy's Five & Six Months!

The older she gets, the less I remember to take a picture of this girl on her actual 'month-days'. She sure is a sweet and cute baby. She is getting too big, sitting up, eating baby food, trying to crawl, and is teething -- and a joy to have in our home. She is the happiest girl as long as Mommy is close by, she doesn't let me get too far.


Here she is a five months, just a cute little smiley bug!


Image


Here at six months she is making her 'I'm not really smiling, but I am' face. She just loved that almost smile for quite a while, little faker ;)

We love our Maisy!!!
