Archives for December 2010

We went to a neighborhood Christmas Eve party and got the girls all dressed up.  Both girls had a good time, and we were happy to have left before Santa arrived (a few of the other 3 and unders were a little cranky by that point).   Diana seemed to understand the concept of Santa, in that he would come and bring chocolate and presents.  On Christmas morning, it took her a while to even see her stocking (which “Santa” left hung up on her dresser).  Once she saw it, she loved taking out all of the things and looking at each one throughly.  She got some crayons, and took them out to draw, and then saw that Santa had left an even bigger present – her new red kitchen set.  She has been playing with it non-stop since then.  We, er, I mean Santa, was clever enough to hide the rest of her and Helen’s presents inside the various doors, so she had a lot of fun finding everything.  Hope you all enjoy the photos!

Here’s a little look at what our daily life is like here 🙂  Sorry about the camera work…

Here’s some more pics of our recent adventures.  As you can see, Helen is growing and enjoying sitting up in her Bumbo, or her saucer.  She loves watching Diana run around and dance, and judging by her laughter, seeing Diana cough was the funniest thing she’s seen yet.  We went to the pool this weekend, and Diana was a fearless swimmer and didn’t want any help from daddy, although she put up with it when she realized what would happen if he let go.  Diana has also discovered M&M’s, and got a blue one in the tub as a treat this week – she’s savors them, and that combined with the drool made for a pretty funny picture.  Enjoy!
