Thanks to five inches of snow, the girls got to spend yesterday at home playing outside. The day's activities including clearing the deck, building a snowman (which ended up as more of a snowmound due to the powdery snow), and shovel rides courtesy of Dad.
We just moved Helena from her crib to her very first big girl bed! She definitely seems to enjoy having more room for all the babies she takes to bed with her, and she quickly figured out how to get herself up and down without any trouble. The first couple of nights were a little rough, but now it's really starting to grow on her.
Each Christmas, Santa is kind enough to make a special trip to our house after we get back from Oklahoma. This year, Sophie awoke bright and early and came into our room to get us up so we could see all the presents he dropped off. Helena wasn't nearly as excited about the presents until we started opening them and she realized there were toys inside.
And the aftermath:
We always love our time with friends and family but, despite the mess, nothing quite compares to seeing how excited the girls are when they wake up in our house and see that Santa has visited.
