Sweet Faces

Modesty

Sophia has been really into modesty lately. When we are at home she come and pulls the back of my pants up and says, "Mom, if someone were here that would not be modest." I always tell her that certain things are OK to wear when it's just us at home, but if people were over or if we were going somewhere they would not be appropriate.

We were in the grocery store yesterday and she saw the front of a magazine. There was a girl on the front with a low cut shirt and her belly showing. She said, "That girl isn't being modest." She paused for about 15 seconds and then said, "Is she going somewhere or is she just going to be at home." Good question.

My Super Cute Christmas Tree Picker

Visitors

Grandpa Tom and Grandma Barbie came for a visit over Thanksgiving. We had a great time relaxing, eating and enjoying the kids together.

Park Skills

Sophia can do so many things at the park now. I love watching her grow and be so proud of the things she is able to do. We are so proud of her, too.

Oh My

There was a cricket in our house and I yelled to Mike, "Kill it!" Sophia joined in and yelled, "Crucify him!"

We've been reading the story of Jesus' crucifixion a lot.

Livvy 8 Months

Snuggles for Daddy

First time touching a Christmas tree

Livvy turned 8 months on the first. She is so fun. Her favorite people to see are Sophia and Daddy. When she sees Mike or his pictures she waves and says, "Ha Da." This is her way of saying, "Hi Dada." It is so sweet. She now has 2 bottom teeth.

She is very close to crawling and is determined when she wants something. She hates getting dressed and having her face wiped. Livvy can now do "So big", wave, clap her hands and give high-fives. She loves taking baths with her sister.

Sleeping has been really good. She takes 2 naps each day that last anywhere from 1-2 hours each. She is liking food more and still nursing 4x a day and once at night. Bedtime is between 6:45-7:45 and she usually sleeps a good 12 hours. So nice for mommy.
