Christmas Morning 12/11

The girls slept in until 7:30!  We went in to wake Lane up and she was so out of it.  The girls were so appreciative of all of the gifts that Santa brought.  Elise got the ice skating Barbie and Ken that she really wanted and Mal got a princess hula hoop that she wanted.  Their big gifts were the Leap Pads (thanks to Betah for making it possible for Santa to get those:)!

Christmas Eve In Our Matching Jammies 12/11

Our annual Christmas Eve tradition- watch Charlie Brown Christmas in our matching jammies, leave milk/cookies/magic key for Santa, off to bed.  

Christmas Eve 12/11

We had my family and the Rudloffs over for Christmas Eve Brunch.  It was nice (aside from Wyatt eating the "make ahead french toast casserole" 20 minutes before people arrived) and we were glad that we didn't have to drive to Cincinnati 3 times in a week!

Christmas Party/Play Date 12/11

We had "a few" friends over for a Christmas party.  We decorated cookies, played pin the nose on rudolph, and hung out.  It was fun!

Lane 8 Months Old

Once again, Lane's monthly photo shoot was challenging!  She doesn't like to stay still for long and she even got down from her chair all by herself!  Lane is still the perfect baby.  She loves to eat and has not met a food that she doesn't like.  She is cruising all over and stands independently for a few seconds.  Her favorite game is peek a boo with Elise and Mal- it always turns into an adorable high-pitched screaming match.  Lane is so enjoyable and just goes with the flow.  Everywhere we go people comment on what a good baby she is- we couldn't agree more!
