Trying to get

These 4

To sit still and

and look at the camera was all but impossible, but we managed to get these few shots!

Sorry so long

It has been a crazy holiday season. The girls are having alot of fun this year. Brie is very excited for Santa. She keeps asking how many more days until Santa comes. We have baked alot of cookies, visited Santa many times, done tons of Christmas shopping, had a dance Christmas recital, a church Christmas nativity, and Christmas caroling at the local nursing home. Lets just say we are exhausted and it is not even Christmas yet. This week they have a Christmas party at school on Wednesday, Thursday grandma and grandma Myers are coming to visit, Friday we go to Nana and Pops, Saturday we are not leaving the house, Sunday off to Grandma Berts and Grammie and Poppop Smithgalls.

I have lots of pictures and videos, but need to finish up wrapping, shopping and getting ready for this week before I can even get to them.

Gingerbread house

This year we decorated a Gingerbread house with the girls.

Marcus put the walls together

and the girls decorated the roof

and walls

Not bad for a 2 and 3 year old

But the best part of all was getting to eat the candy and cookies!

Decorating

The girls had a great time decorating the tree
This year they were both able to hand ornaments

The best part of the whole thing was the train.

A Christmas tree!

This Saturday we went out and cut down our Christmas tree.

It was a bit cold

But we dressed warm

and found the perfect one!

Stay tuned for pictures of it up in our family room. It looks wonderful and has put as all in the Christmas spirit.

2nd birthday party

Sorry it has taken me so long to get these photos up. Things have been pretty busy around here. Sophie's birthday party was a success last weekend. There was lots of singing.

A rainbow cake

Face painting, thanks to aunt Shelley

lots of cupcakes

a pinata

and lots of babies

Sophie had a great time. It was great to get together with some great friends and family and Celebrate. I still cannot believe she is 2 already

Sophie turns 2

Can you believe she is two already

It seems like just yesterday I was pregnant

She has changed so much and has developed her own little personality

She has finally started to speak her mind and does not let Brie talk for her as much

Her favorite color is purple

She loves babies and is never without one in her hand

If you ask her how old she is she will say "2" with a big grin

She does not like the corner and does not stay when placed in time out

Sophie sleeps with a bunny, 2 blankets and about 4 babies every night

She still loves to eat, especially her fruits and veggies

Sophie loves to dance and loves music

Old San Juan Photoshot

Old San Juan has beautiful cobblestone streets and old buildings. So on our last day there
I decided to dress the girls up and try to get some nice pictures of them on the streets. It was incredibly hot and humid so it was not an easy task.

Brie was fairly cooperative so I got a few good shots of her

But Sophie was more content to wonder around and give me cheesey smiles so there are only a few shots of her

Happy Halloween

Here are a few pictures of the girls from tonight.

They had a great time both trick or treating and giving out candy

On one of our first days in Old San Juan we decided to explore the old fort. It was over 90 degrees and humid, but it did not stop us from checking out the sites.

The girls had a great time climbing the walls and checking out the great views of the ocean.

They even posed for a few pictures

My favorite things to do in PR

If you ask Brie what her favorite part of the trip was she will tell you... "feeding the iguanas"

Everyday at 11 am at the resort they had iguana feeding. All of the kids at the resort took part. The iguanas were very friendly and would climb on your lap to get the lettuce.

Brie would feed them right out of her hand, but Sophie was a bit more timid and throw the lettuce down for them to eat.
