Visiting me at work..



The girls paid me a visit at work a couple weeks ago in their cute Christmas outfits. Harper was pumped to show me her reindeer dress. We had left over pizza from a work X-mas party so the girls ate lunch and played around in our office. Notice Liv is a MAJOR cheeser when it comes to pictures. I love drop by visits from my favorite people.

Christmas Take One

One of the twins (can't ever tell them apart). Liv was all about hugging her cousins.

We kicked off our Christmas festivities the weekend before X-mas at the Stark's Christmas Party. This is Lateaf's grandma's side of the family. It was a beautiful day with sunny 50 ish degree weather. The kiddos were able to play outside and we had a great time amongst family. One down several to go....

Christmas Train




During the month of December Lateaf and Harper do a lot of crafts. He tries to do them often throughout the year but it gets tricky with a 1 year old around. The best craft time is when momma is home to occupy Liv. This particular craft is a train made of toilet paper rolls, play-dough and Boddington beer packaging, pipe cleaners, and paint. Harper painted and glued while Lateaf connected the parts and made the final touches. I never did get a final picture of the masterpiece before shipping it off the New York. Aunt Kate & Unlce David love their homeade gift!

"Read it"


This little bundle of joy LOVES to read. She seriously is enterained a lot of the day from reading books and flipping through the pages. There are many times when we are not paying attention and we look over to find her reading books by herself. The other times she is bringing books to us, yelling at us to "read it" and then telling us " up" so we will put her on our lap to "read it." Smart little nugget.

Candyland...



Best bud Ryder gifted Harper Candyland for her birthday. Daddy taught her how to play while mommy played with Liv and took pictures;) Harper loved the game but in the end when daddy was hi-fiving her for her victory she was sad because she didn't want the game to be over. Teaf had to explain that they could play another game but that she won that particular game and that was exciting. It took her a minute to realize the fun wasn't going to end and then she celebrated her win. I played round two with her and she kicked my butt too. Must be beginners luck. She's goin down next time;)
