Lauren's Christmas party and Allison is two months old!

Allison is two months old today! I also had to put all the newborn size clothes up today. And I can't help but be sad about it. It is so funny how one week something doesnt fit and the next it fits great! Lauren is even outgrowing her 3t shirts! Somehow that always happens. In the middle of the season she outgrows a size! Allison is doing fairly well with sleeping at night. We get a good 6 hours usually. Allison is a smiley girl when she is feed and happy! The gas still bothers her so sometimes it gets pretty loud at our house!! Lauren will sometimes say "Allison always cries" and somedays it does feel like that. It is getting better though. She loves her pacifier when she is sleepy. I said I would never use one with my kids but I dont think I could live without it either!!

Lauren had her preschool chistmas party on tuesday and I was able to go since my Mom came over and watched Allison. It was great to be able to go up there. Lauren was really excited about it. The first pic it at the preschool they had all sorts of lights set up. I didnt get a very good pic since there was so many people walking through it.















LOOK she is eating pizza! And she ate it ALL! She will NOT eat pizza when we get it at home!?




















Just a few of Allison I took this morning. She wasnt much into pics so I only got these. I may try tomorrow for some more. I was working so hard to get her to smile and well she just wasnt having it!!

Lauren's School Christmas Program

I had to add these two cute pics of Allison in a new outfit and hat that was given to us. The hat is sooo soft! She feel asleep shortly after this. Maybe the hat made her all warm and cozy!





Lauren had her first preschool christmas program friday night. She was so excited about it all day long. She kept telling me I am going to dance and sing tonight! They sang several songs and Lauren did great! You will see in one pic she is frowning I think this is when she was looking for Jon. He moved with the video camera to get a better view of her. It was a good thing the school had a background tape going with some of the songs b/c otherwise no one would have been singing!! lol! It was really sweet to see her up there. At the same time it makes me sad b/c she is growing up. She loves to sing so she had a great time up there! On the way to the program she kept singing 99 ants on the wall. And I mean she was saying "99 ants on the wall" over and over again!































Hey Momma, Daddy, Pops, and Uncle Jeff!

My Girls under the tree!

They are wearing sort of matching pjs. Lauren has some pants and top that matches exactly but I thought the dress would do for a better pic. Lauren thought it was the funniest thing to hold Allison. She kept saying her hair was ticking her. Allison liked being held by her big sister! I wish I had some sort of table to sit them on so I could get more lights behind them.

Just Beautiful!

Starry Nights and Storytime

A few nights ago we took the Girls to see Starry Nights. It was nice. Lauren enjoyed it. Allison slept of course. Lauren got kinda bored with it towards the end. Then we went to look at a few other lights on some houses well Lauren fell asleep and I tried to wake her up when we got to the house that does it to music. I finally woke her up and she just looked at it and said yeah pretty and that was it! She was really tired!

Today Lauren got a new book in the mail and Allison was awake so we all had storytime. Allison loved it! She just smiled the whole time!

Mixture of things

Today Lauren and I put up the ornaments on the christmas tree. I put most of them up while she was at school and she put hers up when she got home. Allison must be going through a growth spurt because she has been eating like every hour today! The first pic Allison was awake she is starting to be awake more and I am trying to come up with things to entertain her. She likes laying down and just moving her arms and legs and watching Lauren!! I have just about decided that Allison does not like baby music. She does like dance/techno though! She is more of a constant noise soother than different music. At least that is where she is at right now.








Here are the Girls with their Hallmark ornaments. A tradition my family did and one I want to do with mine. Lauren was so excited to get her Tinkerbell ornament! Allison not so much! She just wanted her bottle! Not sure why their eyes came out red but I am tired and dont want to fix it right now. I must have my camera on a funky setting.





















Allison has found her hands and thumb and been enjoying them!



















Here are Lauren's Christmas pics. I am not sure if I will do anymore or not. I would like to get some with both of them but we will see how it works out.
