oh yes, and Christmas too...

ok so,

I guess I left out a few details about Christmas yesterday. The girls' birthdays overshadowed Christmas just a bit...but that's exactly what Christmas birthday kids want, don't they? This blog is mainly for the girls to read when they are older, so I will just recap their 1st (I am not sure if this is their 1st Christmas or their birth day was their first Christmas) Christmas. Both girls were showered with gifts both in the morning but also in the afternoon/evening when my family and Augie's family came to celebrate with us. Augie's sister Judy was the hero of the day. Aunt Judy came bearing gifts for all. The girls girls received the new talking Elmo, which Bella is crazy about and Lily is cautiously curious. They both got beautiful dresses, bishop gowns and accessories from Strasburg Children. They each received a baby doll in a moses basket, loads of WONDERFUL books including a children's version of the Barack Obama story, an old fashioned string along phone and also a string along doggie, an activity table, a ride on car, a rocking horse, a lap activity car panel, an portable activity farm, 2 inauguration day t-shirts, a huge set of toddler friendly crayon/marker set, a toy cell phone/car key set, a couple of children's DVDs and 2 gorgeous faux fur-lined coats. As you can see, the girls are in want of nothing but mommy could use a larger house!

The one of Bella makes me think of that one of you, "I love you, present!"

They're gorgeous.
