One Of My Favorite Things

One of my favorite things is sneaking into the twins room before I go to bed and peeking at them. Sleeping kids are so cute. Sleeping babies are even cuter. But sleeping twins; I don't know if you can beat that. I want to stand and stare at them all night and I would if Quinn didn't make me go to bed. Some of the positions they get into are so funny. Who can sleep with someone else's leg across your face? Apparently it doesn't bother these girlies at all.


I will name them in every picture if I can see their face well enough for our future reference.

London has her arms behind her head

Dance on her back Bridge on her tummy

I'm guessing they made a bet and Cadence won. She gets the whole bed. At least London gets a binki.

London is holding the binki and Cadence must have said "you can hold it just let me suck on it." Hey, they worked it out on their own.

Nativity 2016

 Here is our annual family nativity picture. With this post we decided to do a little overview from the beginning until now. It's so much fun and a little sad to see the kids growing up in these pictures.

When Joseph went to Bethlehem..... I think he forgot Mary. The year we started this Gensie was only a couple weeks old and I couldn't think of a way to include her so we did it without her.

The traditional Nativity is made up of 1 woman and the rest men.  It gets pretty tricky when we have 1 man and 4 women.  As you can see, we had to squeeze Avonlea into a sheep costume that she is clearly too big for, so we simply put the head on her with her arms through the sleeves and she is sitting in her underwear behind the wool. :) 

Look how reverent they are trying to be!  In the next second they start ripping off their halos and scooting away from each other.  SUCH CUTE ANGELS
