a new year

Now that it is behind us, I have to say that Christmas was a blur this year.  Being sick, and having sick kids at Christmas was no fun :(.  

We were supposed to have 5 Christmases in 5 days.  After we went to the first (a couple's Christmas party), we were home for the next 2 (the Meister's and my small family).  We did make it to the small and large Herman's - to which we felt pretty lousy - but at least we made it :).  

Livie had a lot of fun with the presents.  Opening them at least :).  All that paper and the surprise of what's inside was pretty exciting for her.  




But there's nothing like enjoying the presents and treats later :).


Right Emma?


Speaking of Emma...she's been eating cereal for a couple of weeks now.  And filling out her high chair quite nicely :).


It seems like she's grown so much in the past month.  She's flown through 3-6 month clothes and now is in mostly 6-12.  She's outgrown the sink for baths too.  So, we're trying some other options for bathing as well..


The girls have even had a few baths together now.  So fun.  As it may appear, it takes MUCH supervision...but they both enjoy it.  Actually, Emma loves the water.  And never cries when it gets in her eyes.  Little water baby.


It's crazy to think where we've come in one year.  Actually, I started this blog last January 1st :) in case you're all wondering how our life was back then.  God has grown us a lot this year.  And we gladly welcome 2012!

Here's a few pics of our house from a week ago (a lot has gotten done again this week, so it already looks different again).  But, here she was:







And the lake...


Loving the neck warmer :)...ha!
