Some Pictures

Yes, I am a blog slacker, but I have been really busy lately! So here are some long awaited photos!


Ainsley refuses to wear pants now and her favorite place to sit is beside the tv INSIDE the armoire! And Hannah wants everyone to notice how beautiful her hair is when it's straight. We battle every single day whether her hair will be curly or straight that day. She prefers straight, but I refuse to blowdry and flat iron a four year old's hair!


Hannah has gotten over her anti-camera stage for the most part. She was posing as a "Stylish" girl yesterday after church. She wants everyone to notice her pretty "rojo party shoes". Yes, she thinks it is normal to mix English and Spanish in the same sentence. Thanks, Dora!

She does look cute in that little red dress! She is so grown up! And so skinny! Ignore the saggy ankles in these tights!

And this is pretty little Ainsley in her new dress! She is so cute in purple. I haven't really put it on her before. Yesterday was her first day of nursery. She screamed the entire time. I finally had to go in and get her about fifteen minutes before church was over. I could hear her from upstairs in the adult meeting! Oops!

The kids pulled out a bunch of garbage from their room while Thomas and I were trying to get the Christmas decorations up. Ainsley was so exhausted she feel asleep halfway on the ottoman! What a funny kid!

Hannah was so excited to decorate the tree! She is so cute! This is HER cat & the fiddle ornament.

Ainsley loved the tree, too! She was very deliberate about hanging ornaments. Then she would take them off, collect them in a box, rehang them and start the cycle all over again!

Hannah is so big on traditions! She wanted Daddy to help her hang the star on the tree. My poor star is cracked from the big tree fall of 2006. Gonna have to get a new one for next year.

Hannah was probably most excited about the giant musical snowglobe. That is my LEAST favorite part of Christmas. And yes, those are pretzels on the floor. Ainsley dumped out a mini bag of pretzels. Fun!


Ainsley is such a nerd! She loves to do her "cheese" smile! She wanted to help put the star up, too, so Daddy let her touch the top of the tree!


We put up bunkbeds for the girls last weekend. Ainsley decided to climb to the top of the bunkbed latter last night! Nothing is safe!


My girls are so cute! They just love to snuggle each other! Ainsley was so tired. She wouldn't nap yesterday, so Hannah laid down with her on the chair until she fell asleep. It was so adorable!

Ainsley has always hated napping in her bed. This weekend we put the highchair downstairs so she can't nap in that anymore. The poor kid is so confused! She fell asleep on the big chair wrapped up in Hannah's Christmas afghan. So sweet!

This is my living room all decorated for Christmas! Ignore the messy carpet!


This is a picture of the girls all decked out for the first day of Christmas celebrations! Hannah is wearing a light-up Rudolph shirt with a jean skirt and snowflake leggings. Ainsley is wearing a red sweater with a jean skirt and the same leggings. And of course, Ainsley is doing her cheese smile!

Okay, I am going to go clean my house now and do some more laundry!
Merry Christmas everyone!

they are gorgeous, and such pretty dresses. They look like they had loads of fun decorating the tree. I was suppervising our tree decorators onmy own, and my hands were too full for photos unfortunately. Glad you took these.

Loved all the pictures. They are so cute! I'm excited to see your girls!! (And you). A wee bit nervous for monkey girl Ainsley and her climbing skills. Yikes. Anywho... It's one holiday past Halloween and you still have your Halloween blog up... I'm waiting on some spectacular Christmas one!! Do it. Now.
