Merry Christmas! / Week 38

Merry Christmas to everyone!!! What a lovely time of year! We have continued in our sickness this week, and it's actually hit an all time high of wiping noses, coughs, crying, and poor sick babies and parents. But it's still Christmas, and we loved sharing the season with our girls and our families!

Clara is saying "cheese" :) on a morning before the height of her second round of sickness this month!


Audrey is waving hi too :).


Mommy loves braiding Clara's hair...


It's so pretty!


Audrey looks like she is up to something... :D


I wanted to send daddy a picture, but took a blurry one.


I took Clara on the Skyfari at the Zoo one day. She was pretty sick, thus the unhappy face.


And Audrey was sick in this picture, thus my unhappy face.


On Friday, Saturday, and Sunday, Clara demonstrated a newfound ability to fall asleep anywhere and everywhere, at a moment's notice. Here, in the car on the way back from the zoo.


Here, on the couch, the same day, while eating jello.


And here, on the ground, on her new pillow on Christmas Eve.


Audrey got in on the sleeping fun too :).

On Christmas Eve, we spent a little family time opening presents with the girls. It was sweet!

Clara was pretty sick, so we did it all blankets and cuddled up.


Audrey was surrounded by toys, but she really just wanted the tissue paper you stuff into gift bags. She played with that for a good 5 minutes.


The day before, we had a visit from Santa at Grammy's house, while cookie decorating!


Hello little sheep / shepherd!


Here we go, Christmas day!












Poor sweet, sick Audrey cuddling with Auntie Lindsey.


Everyone together! 


And our best effort of the kids!


So today, the day after Christmas, the girls woke up looking like this.




Yes, every picture looks the same, except the last one I had to move them apart because Audrey wanted to grab Clara, and Clara didn't want to be grabbed. They were both exhausted and sick. And me too. So we stayed in jammies all day. It was pretty great.


 At one point, we went out for groceries. I put Clara's new boots on her and off we went!


Audrey went in her new toy car box. :D 

Side by sides, because I can never resist! Almost 12 months Clara, and almost 9 months Audrey. Sweet first Christmases for my sweet beautiful girls!

This was the best I could do! She moves so much now!
