Christmas!!

Christmas Eve we have started our usual tradition. We make sugar cookies or a Gingerbread House. This year we made sugar cookies...and it will probably stick with us for as long as the kids want to do it. We told the girls that "We need to make the sugar cookies so that we have cookies to put out for Santa!" It got KalieAnn all kinds of excited! Except this year we waited to do it after our traditional Christmas Eve dinner, Open Faced Hamburgers. very Yummy! So We were up late with the girls getting the cookies made and decorated. Alayna was the first one to bed...Mitchell and I being the last...even our Dog, Dodger was in bed before us.

We put Alayna in her bouncy on our dinning room table so she could be a part of it. I even picked her up and let her cut out a cookie or two before we put her to bed.
KalieAnn and Hannah next to the cookies and milk they set out for Santa.
We let KalieAnn and Hannah open one gift before they went to bed on Christmas Eve but because Alayna was already in bed we decided she got to open the first gift! She was just like any other cute little three month old...more interested in eating the present than opening it.

Then a picture of each of the girls and one of the presents they unwrapped. After Halloween last year we went Kohls and got the girls some costumes since they enjoy playing dress up.
