christmas decorations

Christmas - Finally! At the Meyer house we don't get very excited about decorating for the holidays so it's always with a little bah-hum-bug that we drag out the tree, ornaments, and decorations each year. (B will have it all down by the day after Christmas if I'd let him!). This year was a bit more exciting because Annabelle was really into the tree. We had the tree lit when she walked in the living room and she was full of "oooooh's" and "aaaaah's". We have two picture ornaments with her little face from last year and of course those were her favorites! (She is so much like her mother sometimes. ha!) We hung those low so they didn't stay on the tree for very long. She wanted to carry them around with her - she even kissed the pictures of herself. My goodness!

We have found that Gwyneth no longer likes to be in her bouncy seat. She either wants to be sitting in her bumpo so she can take it all in or laying on her tummy plotting her get-away. As soon as you lay this girl down on her back, she instantly flips to her tummy! We really didn't expect that because of her reflux but she's constantly surprising us. Gwyneth hung out in her bumpo and enjoyed the lights while Annabelle grabbed her shades and microphone and gave her a mini rock-star concert. They were both belly laughing - they crack each other up! Gwyneth is able to grab onto things really well and the girls were even holding hands last night. I wish I could have captured a photo of it - it was priceless. I'm such a gushing mom!
