I don't have much time....the kids are getting restless.....so you don't get many words, but you can enjoy some of my favorite pictures from December/Christmas!!
We were lucky to spend Christmas (2 weeks) living in luxury.....bathtubs, laundry, dishwashers.....while taking care of two big dogs. It was a nice little getaway from our normal life!
 |
| Cute sitter!! |
 |
| Santa Clause at the Mall. |
 |
| Reindeer when we picked out a Christmas tree. |
 |
| A fun merry-go-round. |
 |
| Emry wasn't a fan of getting a Christmas tree! |
 |
| First time getting into my make-up. For as often as I do make-up (twice a year!), I'm surprised Leah put the mascara in the right place!! |
 |
| Christmas tree #1 at our apartment! |
 |
| Leah insisted on doing our dishes. She got a little stool and ran things under the water.....a few days later was Christmas and I gave her her very own sink to do her own dishes!! Big hit!! |
 |
| An attempt at family Christmas pictures!! |
 |
| It was cold. The kids didn't cooperate very well! |
 |
| Still cute! |
 |
| "I freezin' momma!!" |
 |
| A little smile out of Leah. |
 |
| We used this one for our Christmas card!!! To those who didn't get one......"Merry Christmas!!!" |
 |
| Standing, if there is something to hang on to. |
 |
| Leah having a special moment to get out of bed and cuddle with daddy while he studied!! What a lucky girl!! |
 |
| I put this bucket on her head and she froze for 30 seconds!! Ha ha!! |
 |
| Leah found some lotion during nap time!! |
 |
| Sweet sleeper! |
 |
| Christmas at the Christensen's. And umbrella!!!! Cool! |

 |
| Cute owl....except, we decided that the owl is Leah's (she was an owl for Halloween last year) and Emry is the turtle (because she does turtle face!) |
 |
| Cute headband! |
 |
| Leah got overwhelmed with the amount of new things....she kept wanting to open each toy and play with it, but we said, "No, open another one!!" |
 |
| Sewing machine! |
 |
| One of these things is not like the others. Leah left her Dolly behind and grabbed an orange for "Mommy, Daddy, and We-ya" |
 |
| Pulling up on things....time to lower the crib. |
