Snow!!

I was happy to see the snow, but was excited to see it go! The girls and I don't like having to stay put in the house all week, so by Saturday we were ready to get out!! The girls enjoyed being out in the snow for about 15 minutes! They would of loved it more, but they were taking their shoes or gloves off and got mad at Dan or me anytime we tried to put them back on. After a few meltdowns, we decided to go on inside. Atleast I got a few cute pictures of them.









Playing Dress Up

The girls got a few dress up clothes for Christmas and they have loved them. They have been sick on and off since January 1st( and I am tired of them being sick), so we played dress up one afternoon to try and help them feel better. I think it helped a little bit :)


HAPPY NEW YEAR!!!

I need to set a New Year's resolution of TRYING to be a better "blogger", but I doubt that will happen. So I will try to play catch up from the last blog post up until now.

Of course the holidays we stayed on the go go go. The girls were give out by December 27. They did enjoy themselves more this year, still not sure about the whole Santa thing, but Dan and I enjoyed what little bit they did understand. ( we had to literally go wake them up Christmas morning because we were like the kids waiting to see what Santa brought. The girls slept until almost 8:30!!!) We enjoyed getting to see everyone, I really don't feel like we got to spend lots of time at each stop because we had to rush to the next one, but I guess that is part of it.

We are truly blessed with wonderful family and friends. The girls once again were blessed with soooo many wonderful gifts. I think everyday they find something new to play with it!

2011 is finally here and we are excited to see what new things are ahead for us. Hard to believe the girls will be turning "2" in June. There are also some other BIG birthdays this year as well, but you will have to wait and see who is celebrating them.

I am also excited that my best friend since high school, Martha is expecting her first baby in April. Kyle and Martha are expecting a little boy, John Asher. Of course I told her it was going to be a boy and one day she swears she is going to start listening to me! :) Please continue to pray for Martha through the rest of her pregnancy and for a HEALTHY baby and SAFE labor.

Family Christmas #4..the last one of the year!

Finally,(I know that sounds bad, but after 4 days straight of go go go) the last family Christmas gathering of the year, at Granny Prater's. There is sooo much going on while we are there, it is very hard to get any pictures. There are about 10 kids running around and that isn't all of them, plus almost 20 adults going each direction as well, but Granny wouldn't have it any other way! :)


Poor Aunt Sandra, everyone picked on her while playing dirty santa. I think she kept this gift for about 15 seconds!


Christmas at G-diddy's

The day after Christmas we went to G-diddy's. I am a slacker and just didnt get any pictures. Or maybe it was because the girls wouldn't be still long enough to take a picture?? Either way, they had fun, especially looking at all of the wildlife G-diddy has in his house.



Christmas with Moma D and Popa Jim

After the girls had a nap, we headed to Northport to do Christmas with Mom and Jim. If you visit mom's blog you may of already noticed that Santa brought the girls a "new" room to their house. The girls really enjoy it and it's very cute!




Christmas at Nana's

After we did Christmas at our house, we went to Ms. Wanda's house to do Christmas with her , Holley, Rodney, Hudson and Danni Kate

Hudson was not very happy with his Aunt Krisha when he opened this gift. I needed a box to wrap his present and all I had was an empty diaper box. Bless his heart, I felt bad, but after he saw what was inside, the pillow pet he had been wanting, I was back on his good graces! :)

The 3 cutest chefs I have ever seen!

Christmas Morning

The girls decided to FINALLY wake up around 8 AM Christmas morning. I thought Dan was going to go crazy waiting on them to get up! Of course we had to block them off so they couldn't get into the living room until the camera man was ready(then of course he got about 5 minutes of them being in there and the tape was full OOPS!) The girls must of been really good this year, or at least Santa thought so.

Christmas Eve Night

Once we FINALLY got home Christmas Eve night, the girls were still full of energy. They played with some of their new toys. Even took time to track Santa was on their new laptops.
We decided to let the girls open one present from Mommy and Daddy.
When the girls finally opened their gift, they got "Min E"(aka Minnie) dolls.

Moma D and Popa Jim gave the girls The Night Before Christmas , Popa Jim recorded his voice reading the story. The girls listened to it 3 times before going to bed.
The girls left Santa some cookies and milk and the reindeer some carrots. After goodnight kisses, the girls were off to bed and it didnt take long for them to fall asleep! Dan and I decided to exchange our gifts to each other because we knew we would be to excited watching the girls with their gifts from Santa to have time to on Christmas morning.

Family Christmas #3

We traveled through the woods (literally) to Uncle Steve's house to do Christmas Eve night with the Deavours side of the family. It can get crazy there because there are soo many people and kids everywhere, but we have a good time.



Family Christmas #2

We had Christmas Eve lunch with the Holley's, Ms. Wanda's side of the family. This year we got together at the lake house. Of course we ate way too much and played a lovely game of Dirty Santa! (sarcasm..lol)
Dan sometimes take this game serious, especially if he is trying to win what he brought. It can get ugly and he has to have the right strategy to pull it off. And of course he did! YOU GO HONEY!
The kids all had a fun time opening their presents. The Elmo camera the girls got is soo funny, especially when you hear Elmo say" work it baby!" lol

Family Christmas #1

We did Christmas with Mom's side on the Thursday before Christmas. We were a little worried about Aubrey and how she would react seeing Uncle Wayne (aka Santa's twin) because the week before when she saw him she just pitched a fit and wouldn't go anywhere near him. She got just close enough to him to where if she needed to get back quick she could. Before the night was over, she would at least give him a "high five."

(for some odd reason MiMi(Aunt Nita) thought it would be fun to give the girls a lemon?!!?)


Maw Maw got the most joy out of just watching the girls open the gifts she gave them, and she did good on their gifts because she got them a few of their favorite things, a doll and a jacket. I don't know what it is, but the girls LOVE to wear a jacket, for no reason. We can be at home and if they spot one of their jackets in their closet, they pitch a fit to wear it!! Oh well, I guess it's the DIVA coming out in them?!?! lol I thought I got a picture of the girls and Maw Maw, but obviously I didn't :(
The girls also got another favorite item, a new rocking chair. And it has done it's job of rocking the girls and their minnie mouse dolls to sleep! Good Job Davis Family!!
