'Tis the Season

We are doing our best to keep up with everything during this hectic time of year.  Since it is both basketball season and the holiday season we definitely feel challenged!  We know we need to enjoy (or at least try to) every moment because these years will pass too quickly.

Both of the girls are doing great!  Stella is on the brink of the 'terrible two's' and sometimes we can certainly tell, but she is a sweet little girl.  Claire is growing and has started to smile - at Stella most!  We can tell they really do love each other!

Daddy Time!

This past week Daddy began his paternity leave - he'll be home with his girls for the entire month of December!  There will be lots to do since its holiday time so I'm sure it will go by quickly.

This weekend we took the girls to a holiday party where Santa made an appearance.  Stell-Belle was really interested in him so we put her right on his lap and she criiieeed.  It wasn't a pretty picture!  He gave her a fun Minnie Mouse car to play with but even after opening it she didn't want to sit with him.  She'd rather look from afar so we didn't get any photos.  Maybe we'll try again in a week or two...


We know some of our blog followers had trouble opening the video we posted last week.  We've adjusted the settings so the clip should be viewable now.
