Santa 2015

Here's our yearly Santa picture!  This is the real deal Santa :)

All smiles this year- Santa said to not count on it for next year!

And the previous years- slow down time

Christmas Time

This is my favorite time of year! We've seen Santa a lot!

I took Maya to see her first Nutcracker this year. It was a quick kid friendly show and she enjoyed it!




She got to see Santa before the show started!



We went to the tree lighting celebration in my mom's neighborhood where an Elf made them balloon creations and they again got to see Santa.







Maya got up and sang Christmas songs in front of everyone... No idea where she gets this from!



She asked the Elf to make a "princess crown". Leo got a reindeer but he was too busy for a picture!

Vera is (was) 5 Months Old

Vera you continue to go with the flow. You gave me 2 rough days this month where I actually heard you wail, but it ceased (thank goodness).

You refuse to smile for your monthly pictures!

This month you:

• started playing in your Jumperoo
• had your first Thanksgiving
• constantly make your favorite noise which is a farting noise...
• started blowing through multiple diapers a day (between your spit up and your blow out diapers you go through a lot of clothes a day)!
• continue to dislike tummy time- probably because it always results in your face being covered in spit up
• started wearing size 9 months clothes!

Your brother and sister continue to dote on you and often fight about who gets to interact with you!  You are definitely the most popular person at the breakfast table in the morning.  Many fights have occurred over who gets the sit the closest to you!

We love you and your sunny disposition!

It's really hard to not succumb to the matching girls clothes...

This is my favorite picture to date!

First time in the Jumperoo- you love it!
