The holidays, according to my iPhone

We saw Santa!

And somehow my digital file came with this cool effect!

Ho Ho Ho!

Cooped up

The weather has been icky (I'd say snowy but the snow was lame) so we've spent some time indoors recently.  Please excuse the photography.  It is pretty dark in our house when there isn't sun outside!

First, I let Caroline paint.  It was a mess.  She had a blast.

She even rolled around and used her body as a giant stamp.  Silly goose.

Then I didn't move away fast enough.

Today was a snow day so we stayed in our pajamas.  See our fancy tree?!?!  Happy Holidays!

EMN - Four months old

Big girl!  She is super smily and mild tempered.  Still loves being held.  She has big rolls and chunks! Eleanor is not too active, but active enough.  And so drooly!

We don't go to the doctor for stats update until after Christmas (and our big trip to Atlanta).  So that is sad.  But we do know she is growing and is pretty healthy!

Weekend fun; and portraits

This weekend was so just...full.  Granny, Shelley and Genny were in town and we had a ton of Nichols family time.  The cousins played, we stuffed ourselves full of a very delish Thanksgiving dinner, and we wished Olivia a happy 4th birthday.

I tried my hardest to get some holiday-card worthy photos of Caroline and Eleanor together.  We had some success...these are the ones that didn't make the cut. I love many of these images but they were not quite what I was looking for for our card.  You all will have to wait and see what we chose!

Life lately, according to my iPhone

Lots of out and about. And lots of staying warm inside. 

So thankful for this life. 

When big girl sleeps...
