Tummy Time with Eve

Eve was spending some time on her tummy and we were hoping that she would roll over. Luke decided to provide her some encouragement and laid next to her. He said that he could roll over too and that we needed to get that on film. Luke loves to have his picture taken doing anything...

She's almost there...

Talking Eve

Eve loves to see her reflection. We were able to capture a little conversation she was having with herself in these videos. Enjoy!

Miriam's 1st Haircut

Miriam got her 1st haircut this week. The girls had an afternoon out and went to Snip-It's- a kids hair salon here in Georgia. I had a great coupon that made the visit even better! Miriam was a little scared at first but once one of the stylists started blowing bubbles, she became distracted enough for the other stylist to do the cutting.

Miriam was fascinated with the box of hair clips. She especially liked the red jewels that she later got to stick in her hair.
Miriam and her new style!

Afterwards we went to the grocery store for a chocolate chip cookie reward for being brave. What would a girls outing be without some form of chocolate?

Miriam and the Alphabet

Miriam was super cute singing the alphabet. Listen carefully for Luke providing help when she got stuck.

Here is Miriam telling us what her favorite letter is:

Marshmallow Igloo

Luke started a pre-K program here in Georgia shortly after we moved. He attends Monday-Friday from 8:00 a.m. - 2:30 p.m. One of of his assignments was to make an igloo at home and bring it in to the class to show. We decided to make an igloo out of marshmallows and cream cheese frosting. (2 very delicious sweets!)

Morgan had worked all day but willing spear headed this project with the kids.

Of course we ate more marshmallows then we used in the igloo!
The Fife Igloo

Luke's teacher, Ms. Brenda, was very impressed with his igloo. He got to choose a prize from the Treasure Chest for his hard work. Needless to say, a few days later he begged to make another igloo. His teacher accepted the second igloo too and he got to choose another prize. Luke is definitely motivated by prizes!

Ballerina Miriam

Miriam loves to dance. On Friday morning, it was just us girls at home and she found a tape with ballet music. She had fun dressing up and practicing her steps. She created her own moves and kept dancing for 15 minutes. Here is a short clip from her performance:

Christmas Day

Santa ate our cookies!

Here's a few pictures of the kids opening presents. Santa made his second stop to our kids this season and found them with no problems in NC. Just one more visit from Santa when we get to Georgia and are reunited with Daddy!

Merry Christmas Everyone!
