Fun in the snow


Camryn was very excited to play in the snow this year. Once she got out there she wasn't sure what to do though. She pretty much just walked around and tried not to get stuck.


Elody got in on a little of the outdoor fun. She loves to be outside now and apparently doesn't understand that when it is cold she needs to stay in. She only was out for a little while but had a blast watching Camryn.


After going back inside and freaking out because Camryn was still outside we decided to go back out and bundled up a little more the second time...


We had to build a snowman before all the snow melted. Unfortunately we didn't have all the necessary parts to make Frosty look perfect (no coal, carrot, or top hat) but we tried to make do with what we had :)


In her defense throwing a snowball with oversized mittens on can't be easy, but watching Camryn try might have been the funniest thing I have ever seen! I'm pretty sure she thought she was throwing shot put.

Santa. the Grinch, and more


Elody's favorite thing to do now (besides trying to climb the stairs) is to crawl under the desk and stand up and peek out at me through the hole by the keyboard.


Poor Elody grows hair as fast as her sister did and therefore is often mistaken for a boy. We decided to put a pony in her hair the other day to try to make her girlier :) They both thought it was pretty funny.


Telling Santa what you want is very serious business!


Elody didn't really want much ;)


We tried to get them to smile for a picture... this is the best we got. It is hard with two!!! I was just glad they both seemed to like Santa this year!


After visiting Santa we visited the Grinch. They tried to tell Camryn that this is the Grinch after his heart grew, but she still wasn't real sure about him (which explains why she is standing so far away from him).
