December Days

1. The visit to Santa

This years picture did not disappoint.  Jack kept looking up at Santa and then looking back at us for safety.  Cameron asked for "character maker" and Owen asked for Pokemon. It was a quick, successful trip.  **And yes--we don't put shoes on our baby.**

2.  They dress themselves
So happy that the twins come out of their room in the morning fully dressed. Cameron's outfits usually make me smile every single morning.  He ALWAYS rolls his jeans and usually his shirt is too small.  This morning I made him take a picture.  The socks make his feet look HUGE.

3. Lazy evenings
We have been trying to enjoy our evenings together -- and it is working.  A few nights ago we all sat and watched Mickey's Christmas.  I had to snap this picture of Jack because he was actually sitting down (only for a few short seconds).  I love his grump face.  It matches his daddy's.

4. Asking to go to bed early
We try to get the boys into bed by 715.  Since we have a 610 wake up call they are usually passed out pretty quickly.  The past few days the boys have been asking to go to bed earlier.  Let me clarify...in the morning both boys agreed that they wanted to go to bed earlier!!  What??!!  I told them that I probably can't push their bedtime any earlier.  They will be going to bed right after dinner.  Obviously they need some more "down time."

5. Laura

Last night Laura came over after work and we drank a glass of wine and she watched me devour popcorn.  All three boys were in bed so it was perfect to sit down and not be interrupted. Grateful for her friendship and so happy to catch up.
