My Pal Jules

Finally! I have been waiting forever to get to Toronto to play with my friend Jules. Talking on the phone just isn't good enough mom! Jules and I are only 2 months apart and we loved kissing and playing with each other.

Kiss!

The girls - Merry Christmas!

Another kiss!

Birthday Cake #2 - thanks Melissa, Rob and Jules for hosting us. We had a great time and would have loved to stay and play longer!

Christmas at Grandma & Grandpa's

After a very long drive, during which we were too excited to sleep, we arrived in Canada!! Yeah, more Christmas!

First we stopped to visit Uncle Trevor and Aunt Renate and her very nice parents. I got to play with a very nice puppy and of course, open more presents.

Finally, Christmas morning. More presents!!

A family picture under the tree. Awww.

The cousins under the tree.

King and Queen of the prom! My awesome cousin Travis is so nice to me and even plays dress-up with me!

I got all dressed up to sing everyone some christmas carols.

Then I fell asleep - Christmas is exhausting!

Of course, Sarah had no shortage of snuggles and kisses.

Thanks Grandma and Grandpa for a great Christmas! We had lots of fun and I am already bugging mom to come visit again soon!

Santa Was Here!!!

Wow. Santa was here and we must have been really, really good. I kept telling mom I could hear the jingle bells and that Santa was coming. We awoke to a whole morning of present opening.

Of course some toys are some assembly required. I was more than happy to lend a hand with my new power tools.

Sarah didn't really understand how to open a present so I had to help her. A big sister's work is never done!

Santa brought me my new 'big girl' bike! It is so awesome!

We also got our own playhouse which is taking up most of the living room right now.

Giddy up! Can you believe this was only the start of Christmas! Spoiled indeed!!

Cupcakes!

Happy Holidays!!! Well it is almost Christmas and we are gearing up for some serious spoiling! We thought it would be fun to invite all our friends over for a little cupcake decorating party. What could be better than sugar, sprinkles and candy?

Under the Christmas tree.

Sarah getting into the holiday spirit!

Mmmmm, sugar.

Sarah had her first taste of cupcake that night as well. Mom found the cutest Christmas shirt for her that says "best present ever" Ahhhhhh....

Our friends are here - Yeah!!!!

Let the decorating mayhem begin!

Icing fight!

McKenna was the artist of the evening. She was very deliberate about her cupcake decorating and they looked great. Thanks for a great party everyone and have a great holiday! See you when I get back from Grandma & Grandpa's place!

Wildlights

Recently we went on an outing to the zoo. They host 'wildlights' at Christmas and they decorate the zoo with over 3 million lights. It was really beautiful! Our friend McKenna came with us and we all got to stay out past our bedtime!

Brrr, finally some chilly weather. It was Honda night so we all got some presents and giant cookies!

McKenna and Claire decided to walk and hold hands as they looked at lights. As adorable as it was they kept holding up a huge line of people behind them.

I didn't want to ride in the stroller either, but I had mom to carry me around.

Hi everyone, aren't we adorable?

By the end of the evening we were all exhausted and we had to get home quick before we all had a meltdown. Thanks for the lights - can you make our house look like that daddy?

Gingerbread Disaster

Yeah, great idea mom. Today we decided to build our gingerbread house. For some reason the icing would not harden and this resulted in a gingerbread disaster.

Claire was not impressed! Better luck next time.

Catching Up

Hey Everybody! With our recent computer change it has been a while since our last update. Sorry about that. Here are some random pictures from the last few weeks. We have been having a great time with the cool weather, playing in the leaves and going to the park.

Sarah in the leaves.

Look mom, no hands! Sarah is on the verge of walking any day now.

Ahh, look at how well we get along. I love my big sister.

See, still getting along and sharing a toy.

Playing in the leaves.

Giving my sister a nice kiss. Mom wanted photographic evidence that we do sometimes get along and play nice.

Oh my gosh, a barbie!

well, that is a quick overview of our fall frolic!
