Let's just all face the fact that I'm a terrible December blogger. Last year was exactly the same. Oh well. Take me as I am. :)
We have had a fabulous month so far. We've made a lot of fun memories, and I'm looking forward to the many more that this week will bring. I can't believe that Christmas is this Sunday!! Wow. Here are some highlights from the month...
My Aunt Barb always showers our girls with Christmas gifts, and this year Eden, Jill, and my mom joined us for a Christmas brunch at our house. Mom jumped in a pic with the girls, and I thought this one turned out really cute {except for Amelia's completely dazed look}.
One of Josh's college roomies was in town a couple of weeks ago to visit, and we were able to spend a couple of days with them. We took our three oldest girls to a gingerbread house decorating class. It was worth every single penny of the $11 each that we spent. They had tons and tons of different kinds of candy to decorate the houses. Everything was prepped, ready to go, and we left the mess there! Loved it.
This picture below was nothing but pure fun. Claire and Meredith decided to play a jump rope game, and Olivia crawled over to be part of it, too. The girls handed her one end of the jump rope, and she couldn't have been more thrilled to be playing along.
She shook that rope as hard as she could. Each time it came out of her hand, she would crawl right to it, grab it, and shake it again as hard as possible. They all played together for at least 15 minutes. It was the most adorable thing that I've seen in a while.
Here are a few other highlights:
-cookie baking
-my new Kindle Fire arrived {and the crowd goes wild!}
-Olivia is a crawling machine
-we went ice skating today
-made lots of memories with friends already
Have I mentioned that I love December? It is seriously one of my favorite times of the year for making memories. What are some fun memories that you've made this month?
