Merry Christmas!!



I hope everyone had a wonderful holiday whatever you choose to celebrate! I know we did! Santa was very good to all of us, especially the girls. They got so many new toys to play with, and I don't even know what to do with them all!

As far as opening presents go, I would not say that either one of the girls were overjoyed with it although they did start to get the hang of ripping the paper towards the end. They especially like to take the bows off the packages and hand them to whoever was near. Some of the big gifts the girls got this year was a new playhouse, 2 Fire Truck Cozy Coupes, 2 Powerwheel Quads (that they have both figured out how the maneuver already!) and 2 Beautiful Rocking horses that make noise, shake their head and wag their tail. They also each got a Cabbage patch kids newborns that they love to give their bottle to, crayons, coloring books, big legos, puzzles and more. I would say they did pretty well!


We spent Christmas Eve and Christmas day down at Keith's parents house. Christmas day there was a big celebration with about 35 people in attendance for dinner. I think it was a little overwhelming for the girls, but they did pretty good overall and even still managed to stay on their nap schedule. It was so nice to see everyone that we don't get a chance to see very often. It was great that it just so happened that Keith did not have to work Christmas or Thanksgiving this year! Hopefully we can get that lucky next year as well!


Kylee has added a few new words to her vocabulary in the past couple of days including Kitty, pronounced "Titty" ;) and Tree pronounced "Tee". Those are just a couple of the words that we are able to understand, but they are both constantly babbling and saying things that we have no idea what it means. They are both very good at watching intently at how you say each word and they try to mimic it to the best of their ability.

The girls love to brush their own hair, and they even attempt to brush mine! It's funny that how they know whenever they have a brush or a comb in their hand what it is used for, and it's not even the same brush every time.

I hope everyone has a fabulous New Years celebration! The girls and I won't be doing much. Keith is working so it's definitely going to be low key. Happy 2009!!
