Life Lately!

I thought I would share our life lately, captured through my latest iPhone pics! :)
Sleepy baby....

I took this picture of Lily and I on Thanksgiving :)

Lily's school has "Supper with Santa" every year.  We had yummy chicken tender dinners (hooray for not having to cook that night!) and then she got her picture made with Santa.  She told him she wants the Monster High Clawdeen Dead Tired doll.


Matthew Rocks!  (I still haven't finished the shirt that goes with this hat.....he probably is too big for it now!  Ha!)
I took this picture Tuesday.

Our Christmas tree......the girls decorated it all by themselves and we actually got it up the day after Thanksgiving!  Morgan put it together and put the lights on it and then the girls decorated it.  They did a great job!  I didn't move any of the ornaments, except for a few that were too low.  We have so many ornaments now that we are running out of room!  All of them are either ones that Morgan and I had when we were little, ones the girls have made, or special/personalized ones.  I love having ornaments on my tree that have a story behind them!  I got some of those ornaments for the girls that you put the colored sprinkles in and you bake them.  They did a great job making them......the one Madi made was exactly like one on our tree that I made when I was little.  Neat, huh?!  I will have to take a pic and do a post on them one day.  In all my spare time.  Ha! ;-)

Personalization Mall (.com) was having an ornament sale.  I order from them almost every year.  Their ornaments are always so cute!  I had to get a new family one, of course!

And, I saw this one that you could have made with all of your baby's birth stats and thought it was so neat!  They had different colors too.  I highly recommend their site if you want personalized ornaments.  These were only $10!

So, that's our life lately through cell phone pics!  We are doing great over here.  Matthew is finally sleeping longer at night.  He usually doesn't wake up until around 4 or 5am.  I think his tummy is getting better too and we even went shopping and ran errands together on Tuesday.  :)  Right now, he's laying beside me on the couch asleep, while I'm on my laptop.  I love that little boy!  And I love my girls so much too and their Daddy.  I am one blessed lady! :D

Those are great pictures. Your phone does a wonderful job. Dinner with santa sounds fun. We just do pictures with Santa during school at our school. It is still fun. I take all the pictures :) YOu know I love that. Matthew is getting so big. What a cutie. Love the hat and of course the ornaments are adorable. I need to order one.

Oh oh oh! Thank you for sharing that site! I wanted an ornament similar to your penguin one and Hobby Lobby usually has them (you just use a Sharpie and write in the names, though) but couldn't find a family of six. I'm going to see if they have anymore even though Christmas is over! Woo hoo!

Tree is gorgeous - was it a live one? Love Matthew's blue ornament with all his stats, too! Each year our kiddos pick out a new ornament and when they're all grown up I'm going to let them take them to have with their own families. BUT I don't want to think about that just yet, LOL! They need to stay little for quite a bit longer first!
