Merry Christmas, Happy New Year, and My Babies are 4 Months Old!

I'm a bit behind here!  We had a wonderful Christmas (see more on Reese and Riley's website!)- it was precious time with family and our two miracles!   

Reese and Riley got a package on the door a few days before Christmas from our SWEET blogger friend, Jill!  They got the most adorable onsies that say, "Silent Night... I don't think so!" and Baby Legs!!!  I'm in love with the Baby Legs- talk about the cutest babies ever now!  Thank you SO much Jill!!  Here are the girls on Christmas Eve with their onsies on:


Reese- close up!


The 1st time they tried their Bumbos... we're still working on it!  Riley was NOT happy!


Ri modeling her Baby Legs!

Christmas Day, my parents:




My sister, Leah , BIL- Ben, and
Sweet nephew, Casen (seen here blowing me kisses!) came over to celebrate with...

us- we ate a delicious Christmas lunch and opened presents!


The girls took turns sleeping through the excitement, but were spoiled anyway!  The week of Christmas, Reese started smiling!  

Here's our sweet girl showing off her new baby doll.


Riley modeling her new pajamas and bow... a bit tired of modeling for the pictures! :)


The following Sunday, we celebrated with Richey's family.  I wasn't as good at taking pictures that day though!  
Our fam!  If this was a full body shot, you'd see I'm wearing my new UGG boots!  I love em!

Our New Year's Eve was quite low key- of course, since it's still RSV/Flu season and we don't take the girls out and about.  We had a couple (close, flu-shotted :) ) friends over.  We grilled out, chatted, and played with the girls.  What a blessing it is to have extra hands!  We MADE ourselves stay up until midnight, smooched, toasted champagne, they left, and R and I were in bed by 12:15 and up by 1:30 because the girls were hungry.  Party animals, I know... times are a changin!  But wouldn't trade it for anything.  

On Jan 4 the girls were 4 months old!!! Can you believe it?!  I'm about to post all the stats on their website, so I won't "double post!" :)  Go there and see all their new "tricks," stats, and prayer requests.  So you're not toooooo much in suspense, because it may take me a little while to post... crying babies as I type!  They are doing well- Reese is 11 lbs 5 oz and little Riley is 8 lbs 15.5 oz!!!!  God is good.  They are really "summoning" now!  signing offf..........

My blog list must be getting too long, because I just now saw this post. OOPS!
