because who doesn't love a good collage...

okay, so i actually am not a fan of the collage approach, but i'm too lazy to pick the best pictures right now.. and it's faster to upload:)  many different events...so enjoy...

Christmas Party, part two....

a few random shots of guests who were there.  we had lots of fun. mack got one of those awesome view finders from MY childhood:) she thought it was a camera and loved going around and telling people to "say cheese" as she took their pictures.

also at the party, of course mack and gemma gravitated to each other.  they are great little friends.. and LOVED jumping on jacks bed and dancing together {gemma has sweet ugly dancing skills too, in case you were curious}

"my mom's a jerk" 

is what e is trying to tell you.  he H.A.T.E.S. tummy time.  that may even be an understatement. but dr's orders he needs more tummy time than most due to his large stature:)  he still doesn't roll but is showing signs he wants to, so i'm forced to endure this face a little bit each day.. breaks my heart.

 my mornings.

this is how they usually are.

ed and i wake up to mack:

 a. turning on her radio 

b. serenading e with a song she has made up

c. giggling with/at e

d. then screaming/crying for us to come join her {in her defense, a.-c. is like 30-40 minutes long.. so we probably should just wake our lazy butts up and go in there and she won't need to do d.}

e is a champ at holding his bottle and loves to chug it.  i'm just thrilled he's gone a whole week sleeping 13+ hours.  i'm in heaven!

"baking time"

today whilst cooking these.... {peanut butter and chocolate cookies}

i encouraged some table dancing to christmas music.

 little e man...

mack thought he needed a turn with wearing her hat.. i came in the room to find her putting it on him while they were playing. he didn't seem to mind.

my mom gave me this outfit when i was pregnant.. it's a 9 month and one of those outfits i was all sad that he wasn't going to get to wear it for MONTHS.. well those months have past and i get to enjoy my fuzzy wuzzy bear. isn't he so cute?

ps. i'm LOVING my new camera.. now i just need to sit down and read about all the cool tricks it can do:)
