Christmas 2009!!


Christmas at our house this year was of course wonderful, with 2 new babies to enjoy it with! The twins were great, and slept most of the day, giving us time to enjoy the holiday with Lily. Good thing too....it took us literally all day to open presents with Lily! We started with our stockings at around 7am, and finally finished up Lily's presents at around 7pm! Every time she opened a new toy, we'd have to take a break from opening gifts so she could play with her new toy for a while. Lily got a new baby doll, her very own kid sized chair, Cinderella dress-up shoes, wood blocks, and a musical instrument set, among other things.

Here are some of the pictures from the day!

Amelia, Sean, Lily and beautiful twins,

I have spent the greater part of my morning reading your blog. You have created such an amazing gift for your children here by documenting everything. I hope you print it all off one day and make it into a book for your girls so it doesn't get lost in cyberspace. I went to highschool with Sean...we were locker buddies (Burtch and Burke). Your family is so beautiful and you look soo happy. Congratulations on all your multiple successes!!!!!!!!!!!!
