Moving and Fountainhead

Brooke is starting to move a little more every day and this is how I found her the other day when I went to wake her up so we could take the older girls to school.

Brooke was born with a good amount of hair. I don't know why I didn't think about putting a ponytail (David calls it a fountainhead) sooner, but someone mentioned it and here is the first time that I put it up.

Stockings

This year I decided to get matching stockings for the girls and to get their names put on them. I waited kind of long, but was able to find someone to get them done by Christmas and for a good price. I really like the way they turned out. I also found the perfect place to put them this year. David suggested a picture of a fire to be on the tv for the picture.

Parade of Lights

As part of the girl scouts Abi and Lauren got to ride on a float in the parade of lights. This isn't the best picture, but it is the only one I was able to get. Also included is a couple pictures of the float.

Santa

I forgot to put up the picture of the girls with Santa. We took this picture the same night as the Polar Express. Reagan didn't want anything to do with Santa until she realized that he gave a candycane after they were done. She then tolerated it so that she could get that.

Princess Tea Party

I am still trying to catch up, in November after the Polar Express, I took Abi and Lauren to a Princess Tea Party. It was suggested that the girls wear princess dressses and thanks to my friend Emily lending us one (and that Lauren fit Abi's old flower girl dress) we were set.

Before we left

The decorations

We took pictures of each other

They did hair and makeup

They got glitter tattoos (I forgot to take a picture of Abi's until days later)

On our way out we took pictures at a sign David's company made and some ice sculptures

The tickets also came with the tiarra's and gift bags. They also got a small photo shoot with a free picture. There were lots of happy little princesses there, but I know that my two had a wonderful time!

Polar Express

It has become a tradition that we do the polar express that is part of the festival of trees here in Danville. They girls have a great time and we enjoy it also. It starts at the mall and then we get on the train (buses). They take us to the McDonalds where we get hot chocolate and sing carols all the way to the festival of trees. Then we listen as the mayor reads the book "Polar Express", then Santa comes and gives everyone bells. This is the first year I tried to get matching pj's (couldn't find Brooke's size, but they are close). Here are a couple pictures on the bus and then a picture of the girls with the conductor.

Updates

I haven't been on in a while and have quite a few things that need to be updated. Here are a few random moments. I will try to do more soon!
