Just wanted to share a quick video clip of the girls. Abby is crawling and Emma is dressed up like a princess (a princess with crazy, post-nap hair). Enjoy!

Hello 2009
Maybe it's just the new year, but it seems like both of our girls have grown so much in the last few weeks. Emma is all about dress-up. She received some beautiful dress-up clothes for Christmas and has spent each day trying them out. She especially loves the princess dress and the little high heel shoes (which, surprisingly, she's able to walk in very well). She loves reading the Fancy Nancy books and, at times, could give a drag queen a run for her (his?) money!
Abby is now mobile! She's crawling all over the house and loving every minute of it. She's also eating cheerios, which is a milestone in this house (and a favorite activity for Oscar!). She idolizes her older sister and is happy as a clam being anywhere close to her.
We have been doing some more projects around the house. We're working on making our back garage usable as a craft/work/play room and it's really coming along great. We are also hoping to get started on some kitchen work (new cabinets and countertops) this week. Things are going really well around here - a good start to 2009.

Christmas 2008
We had such a great Christmas! The whole month was really filled with lots of holiday fun. Here are a few highlights from the season:
** driving around the neighborhood looking at Christmas lights (over and over and over)
** Emma jumping up and down about the giant inflatable penguin in our front yard
** Abby all snuggled up in cozy hats
** Singing Frosty the Snowman a thousand times!
** Emma crying at Charlie Brown Christmas because she thought Snoopy was hurt (all was well after I explained he was just pretending - then everytime we watched it she would say, "Snoopy's okay.")
** Emma asking Santa for a "new puppy" for Christmas (good thing she means the stuffed kind!)
** Decorating a gingerbread house on Christmas eve
Here are a few pictures of the season...enjoy! Happy New Year!
***Okay, picture uploader is not working right...I'll post more pictures later.
