A Christmas tradition.....

Last year the tradition was started to make and decorate Christmas cookies at Grandma and Grandpa's house and this year was no different. The girls love it plus they get to spend time with their grandparents. It is hard to tell who had more fun the girls or Daddy and Grandpa. After doing the cookies they went downstairs to help decorate the Christmas tree. Here are some pictures of the activities......

Happy Birthday Sophia!!

Well I can hardly believe that my baby is now 3 years old. It seems like just yesterday we were in China to get her. She has grown so much in the last year. She:

• is talking up a storm (thanks to her wonderful speech therapist)
• is counting to 10 in English and Chinese
• is saying her ABC's
• is into playing with dolls
• has become a girlie girl
• is so funny and lights up a room with her laughter
• is completely potty trained
• weighs 34 pounds and is 38" tall
• loves her mommy, daddy and sister so much
• her favorite color is green

She had a party where she got the new dollhouse she has been eyeing at Tar*get. She loves it and plays for hours!

Christmas Program

The girls had their school Christmas program the other day and did so well. Sophia's class did Jingle Bells and Mary Had a Baby. Olivia's class did Angels We Have Heard On High (my favorite and she was an angel) and Happy Birthday Jesus. I have video from my camera of Olivia's last song. Here are a few pics...

Well, I took the pictures for the Christmas card and got some awesome pictures. I can't wait to see how the card turns out -- I ordered it yesterday. Here are a few pics from that day.....
