They have an amazing Mom.

Their Christmas Dresses

Deborah made both girls a Christmas dress, which they were excited to wear in the church program this evening.

Making a mess is fun!

Messy Living Room

The kids have bedrooms in which to store toys and play, but they would rather drag everything to the living room.

A comfy spot to read.

Surrounded by Pillows

Yesterday Stephen laid out four pillows from the couch and sat down in the center to read; I had to get a picture.

I found him!

Hiding from Daddy

Stephen kept disappearing the other day. He thought it was hilarious when I found him in the closet every time!

Better this time, but still working on it.

Christmas Photo Attempt 2

By this point Stephen was finding it hilarious to run out of the frame, which he is attempting here. Still working…more later.

Close...but not quite.

Christmas Photo Attempt 1

We are trying to capture our annual family photo for Christmas and we got close on our first try. More tomorrow.

...and two funny girls.

The Funny Hat

Elisabeth has taken to wearing a small, pink hat we were recently given. Both girls think it is hilarious.

Bundled and ready for the trip.

Going With Daddy

I make a regular effort to take the kids on a trip “by themselves”, even if only to the grocery store. Hannah’s turn this day.

One of Stephen's favorite new things.

In-House Tractor

Three children – only one riding toy in the house; fortunately Stephen receives deference from his sisters most of the time.
