All in a days work

Yesterday, you helped me put up all our Christmas decorations! We found a place for every last ornament, dish, figurine and wreath.  You absolutely LOVE the christmas tree! You will sit and look at the sparkly lights-and I like how they make your eyes twinkle.  I love love LOVE Christmas time as a Mother.  It makes everything so different, but in the most wonderful way! I'm so happy that I get to do Christmas things with you two.  Today, we went to the Festival of Trees at the Southtowne Expo Center.  It was so fun! We went with your two favorite aunts and cousins.  You were so good-and spent the entire time busily looking at all of the surroundings.  So many colors, lights and people (and Ava coming in to kiss you every 2 minutes : ) )
Like always, people of every age and gender were admiring you and complimenting how amazing and adorable you are.  I agreed, of course.  I just beamed from head to toe that i'm your Mother.  A Father even told me he loved the bows in your hair.  We also met a 6 month old also named A.  When I took you out of your stroller to get a better look at the scene-you were ultra excited! You kicked and kicked and made your happy sounds that I so love to hear.  I adore you through and through.

 Your first Christmas tree.  It has the 12 days of christmas ornaments-my favorite! Also, Mom and Dad's first christmas ornament from last year.  Last year, I remember putting up this tree thinking 'I can't believe next year at this time I will have a baby!' (I did not know at that time I was having twins!) It's better than I ever imagined it to be!
 Our entry table.  I decorate it with holiday decor, and always pictures of you. 
 Sugar and spice


 When Dad came home, he played with you while I finished the final touches on the tree.  He had you really giggling! Your laughs are the sweetest sounds I have ever heard.  I love your happiness. 
 Your holiday attire was incredible.  Sorry the top was so hard to get over your head though...
