Dishwasher Diva

I know every baby does this, a rite of passage or something, but Pyper has made it so difficult for me to empty or load the dishes that I now have to wait for her naptime or bedtime before I can do it. In case you were wondering if her skin looks a little orange, you aren't imagining things. It does have an orange hue. According to the doctor, this is because she loves her veggies...namely squash, sweet potatoes, carrots, etc.! Stephen dressed Pyper today and I thought it was funny that he came up with this. It is Kensley's size 4 Valentine's shirt, but Stephen thought it was a dress for Pyper! It works, though, and I could have saved an entire wardrobe if I had just known they could wear each others' clothes!



Whenever I start taking pictures of Pyper, Kensley starts hounding me to take pictures of her too. She doesn't want to be left out!

Kensley

Kensley has always been deathly afraid of Santa Claus. We even had to promise last year that Santa wouldn't come anywhere near our house! No presents from Santa allowed! This year, she was much more excited about Santa and wrote him and "his wife" letters pretty much every day to let them know what she wanted. She still wouldn't go anywhere near him, of course, but, realized getting presents was much better than being afraid. Her list: Roller skates, skateboard, basket for her bike. She also wanted a helmet, but he left that out! Waiting to dive into her presents.


Pyper

Pyper was in the hospital for 2 1/2 weeks after she was born last year which means she spent her first Christmas in the hospital. So, even though this year was technically her 2nd Christmas it really felt like her first to us. I kept almost buying her clothes that said "Baby's First Christmas" and then I would remember it wasn't! We are so happy to have her with us!

Pyper getting to know her new dolly. This is my favorite picture for some reason. I think it is so cute.
