Living The Sweet Life...

This past weekend, Emily got a gingerbread man kit and decked out her man in yummy goodness. The kit came with frosting, candies and sprinkles for decorating. Melissa was in charge of frosting and Emily got to decorate however she wanted. The decorating resulted in sprinkles covering about 2/3 of the kitchen floor, but she had a great time and did a good job decorating her man.
Here she is with the final product. Notice, she wanted her man to have shoes.

Sarah wanted to get in on the action as well. (Who wouldn't want to eat a life-sized cookie?!) Here Emily fights off Sarah in a winner-take-all cookie grudge match.

To the victor go the spoils! Emily enjoys the first bite of her creation.
Judging from the sprinkles on her face and poor gingerbread man's missing foot, I'd say she enjoyed the experience.

Christmas Time is Here.... La La La (Part III)

Ok, so I think we can officially call it a tradition now. Here the family sits down for the annual viewing of A Charlie Brown Christmas. Emily, much like her father, loves Charlie Brown, so this is probably just the first of many viewings over the next few weeks.

Photo Update

So we've been a little slack lately with updates to the blog. My goal is to try to update on a more consistent basis, so I will try to hold myself to that. Below are some pictures of recent happenings in our lives.
Sarah recently reached a milestone where she gets to eat something other than milk! Albeit, still as boring as milk, but it's a step in the right direction. Here she tries rice cereal for the first time.
She was a little unsure in the beginning, but quickly warmed up to the idea of a new food.
Here Emily and Sarah share some love... awww.

Hugs all around...
Here's the family on Thanksgiving. We were able to get 3 out of 4 people looking at the camera, as Emily was trying to make a break for it!
We went to Macon for Thanksgiving celebrations. We had a great time spending the day with Dianne and her family. The food and company combined for a great day!
Here the girls pose with our generous hostess. This picture is so sweet.
Hope everyone had a good Thanksgiving. We have some more photos that should be posted very soon.
