Santa Came!

The girls wrote a note and left some treats:



In case you didn't notice, Erin likes to include belly button and nipples on her pictures. Also, Santa looks like he's been spending some time in Amish country:



And their efforts were rewarded!


It didn't take long to open up all the loot:



And the "big" present will be enjoyed for awhile yet!



Hope everyone had happy holidays and a wonderful end to 2011.

Why I rarely buy fancy toys....

They spent the last 20 minutes playing with 6 bricks and a few pieces of chalk.

Fashion Friday

Smocking just so right for Christmas!

Just some Robin cuteness

Translation:
She sings, she twirls, she tries to eat a coffee bean off the floor, she makes jokes, she follows directions and tries out some potty humor.

Enjoy your day!

I gotta say, today was a good day

We brought out the camera a bunch of times today, so thought it would be fun to give a few snapshots of our day today. 

Erin, 8:30 AM.  Dressed in a hand-smocked Nutcracker dress (thanks Grammie), with LOTS of Mardi Gras beads, playing air-drums along to her favorite holiday song, "Santa Baby".

Robin, 10:30 AM, after begging for stick-on-earrings, not quite sure about the whole thing.

Erin, Robin and Erin's classmates N and L, 2:15 PM playing "surfing" off of Brian and my bed.

Robin, 6:00 PM, finds something sharp and pointy on the stroller.  

Brian and Erin, 6:30 PM, making "Erin Soup" for dinner.  Good way to end the day.

Yup.
