CHRISTMAS DAY

WE SPENT CHRISTMAS DAY AT MY MOM'S HOUSE. AGAIN WE HAD A GREAT DINNER AND ENJOYED WATCHING THE CRAZY PRESENT OPENING (WITH ALL OF THE KIDS IT WAS A LITTLE HECTIC)!

ELISE GOT ALL OF THE GEAR TO GO WITH HER NEW BABIES.

SHE CAN VACUUM AND CARRY HER BABY!

SNACKING WITH AIDAN

CHRISTMAS MORNING

ELISE DID NOT WANT TO OPEN ANY PRESENTS- SHE JUST WANTED TO RIDE HER HORSE.

NEITHER ELISE NOR DADDY LOOK TOO EXCITED ABOUT GETTING CLOTHES!

EVEN "#2" GOT SOME PRESENTS FROM DADDY

ELISE PLAYING WITH HER NEW KITCHEN SET THAT SANTA ALMOST FORGOT TO GIVE HER (OOPS- WE HID IT IN THE BASEMENT)

MERRY CHRISTMAS

WE HOPE EVERYONE HAD A GREAT CHRISTMAS!!! WE SPENT CHRISTMAS EVE AND CHRISTMAS DAY WITH FAMILY. SANTA WAS VERY GENEROUS TO ALL OF US- ESPECIALLY ELISE. SHE WAS A LITTLE OVERWHELMED WITH ALL OF THE CHRISTMAS FESTIVITIES, BUT SHE HAS BEEN ENJOYING ALL OF HER NEW TOYS.

CUTIE PIE

I LOVE THIS PICTURE OF ELISE FROM THE MATLACK'S CHRISTMAS PARTY. SHE LOOKS SO GROWN UP!

FUN AT THE GREENE

WE TOOK ELISE AND ELIZABETH TO SEE SANTA AT THE GREENE. ELISE DID NOT CARE SO MUCH FOR THE JOLLY GUY- SHE WAS SO SCARED AND HER PICTURE IS QUITE FUNNY BECAUSE SHE KICKED A BOOT OFF IN TRYING TO ESCAPE. ELIZABETH DID GREAT AND EVEN SMILED FOR HER PICS. THE GIRLS HAD FUN PLAYING OUTSIDE AFTERWARDS, BUT WE COULDN'T MANAGE TO GET ANY PICS OF THEM TOGETHER!

CHILDREN'S PARADE

THE BEST PART ABOUT HAVING A KID IS THAT IT MAKES ME FEEL LIKE A KID AGAIN! WE TOOK ELISE TO THE CHILDREN'S PARADE AND I THINK I ENJOYED IT MORE THAN HER! WE HAD A GREAT TIME SEEING ALL OF THE CHARACTERS AND DANCING TO THE MUSIC, EVEN THOUGH IT WAS FREEZING!

PLAY DATE

OUR SCHEDULE'S FINALLY ALLOWED FOR US TO GET THE LITTLE ONE'S TOGETHER. ELISE HAD A FUN TIME PLAYING WITH FRIENDS AVA, CARSON, KENDALL, AND JULIA. WE HAVE TO GET TOGETHER MORE OFTEN!

TWO PEAS IN A POD

THIS IS ELISE'S FRIEND ELIZABETH. THESE GIRLS LOVE TO PLAY OUTSIDE! THEY WOULD PROBABLY BE OUT THERE IN THEIR WINTER COATS IF WE LET THEM.

PUMPKIN PATCH

WE MADE A QUICK STOP AT A PUMPKIN PATCH AND ELISE WAS SO FUNNY. SHE WANTED TO EAT ALL OF THE INDIAN CORN AND KEPT TRYING TO KISS THE "DOGGIES". SHE CALLED THE SCARECROW "PAW PAW".

HALLOWEEN

ELISE WAS A LITTLE WITCH FAIRY TYPE THING FOR HALLOWEEN, BUT SHE HATED THE HAT. SHE ENJOYED TRICK OR TREATING -SHE WATCHED WHAT EVERYONE PUT IN HER BAG AND WANTED TO EAT IT RIGHT THEN. OUR NEIGHBORS PAINTED A HUGE GLOW IN THE DARK MONSTER ON THEIR DRIVEWAY AND SHE GOT SUCH A KICK OUT OF THAT.
