Your Girls

Here comes four!

This past week Claire has really seemed so much older. People have been telling me that four is much easier that three ans I am just beginning to see it (she turns three March 3rd). Three was so hard (terrible two's is nothing).

Claire has said some really funny things this week the great part is Matt was home to hear them. I think that sometimes he wonders if I make this stuff up it is so funny. Now he knows I don't. This kid is just funny.

Here are some of the things.....

1. CLAIRE: Mom, Next year I would like to have a new baby for Christmas. ME: what kind of baby? CLAIRE: a real one like Addy. I don't remember her much as a baby. Babies are so cute. I want one. (seriously, isn't she to young for this?)


2. CLAIRE: Mom, I have little boo boos (breasts) ME: yes, you do CLAIRE: when I get older they will get bigger. ME: yes, you are right (what else do you say?)

3. (standing on the top of the stairs yelling down to Matt) CLAIRE: Dad which ones do you think? ponies or doggies? (holding pony underwear in one hand and dogs in the other) MATT: I like the dogs in honer of Bella (my sisters dog they fell in love with at Christmas) CLAIRE: great idea. Dogs it is. I will wear the ponies tomorrow. (she is turning into a teenager)

There was more but you get the picture. So funny!

Christmas

We had a fun filled Christmas this year. We headed up north to spend the holiday with my sister and brother ans there families ans my Dad. It was so much fun to have all the kids together.

We drove up to Davis Wednesday morning. After arriving we decided to head to the jelly belly factory. It was so much fun. The kids had a blast!




Christmas eve we spent at my Dads house. We had the traditional Christmas dinner of Goose and sausage.

I had to get a shot of my Dads Christmas pants. He has had them since before I was born and wears them every Christmas.

Claire and cousin Eric washing hands before dinner. So cute!

Christmas morning the kids were all excited to see what Santa brought. Claire got a Tinkerbell bike and was thrilled!

Addy got a baby Princess Bell which is what she asked for. I think the face says it all!

Hot stuff in her new glasses!

The day after Christmas we all headed to fairytale land. The girls LOVED it!

What a great vacation! Thanks Stoltz family for having us crash for 4 days. It was so much fun!

HAPPY NEW YEAR TO ALL!!!
