As it turns out....

Stella likes candy canes! David was trying to win some points with Estelle since she is very clearly a momma's girl and he offered her a candy cane! She loved it!

Christmas 2010

This was around 11am on some day around Christmas this year. It is all a blur to us - we were wiped out by germs this year. Here's hoping for health in 2011!

The photographer got this picture on the first try in this pose!

Estelle!






All three smiling at once!




Christmas 2010

Opening presents! What a great time the kids had! :)
Check out the beautiful pearls Dave got me! I must have been good this year! I was painting sissy's nails with the new nailpolish set that santa brought her.

The best gift of all! :)

I took the kids to see Santa on Tuesday and isn't this priceless! Henry was so excited to see him that he budged everyone else in line and just ran right up to the big guy! I had to explain to him about waiting in line! He was adorable. Sophie was such an angel too! She picked up his reindeer bells that Stella booted from his lap and she's convinced that this is going to keep her on the 'nice' list this year! :)

Visiting Grandma and Grandpa!
A little man-to-man talk on the stairs! :)

Sophie got an email from Santa and we all watched it together! She had to take her shirt off to cool down from playing so many video games!


We just got back in last night around 10pm from a last-minute trip to NY to see family. This is a picture of us at the hotel during the trip. The kids act like we're at Disney World!!

Stella & the sippy

I was just loving Stella's adorable smiles this quiet morning and thought I'd share them!

She can use the sippy cup by herself now & is very proud!
all smiles!


The end of an era!

We finally had to pack away the bean table this weekend! Now that Stella is crawling she searches out every stray legume she can find and pops it in her mouth! We packed them into a tupperware tub and will play in it when she's napping or contained! Thanks Grandpa for making the table for us!!
