2 months!

Miss Aftyn has been with us for 2 whole months!!! So far, everything has been really good. The transition has gone smooth. She is a great little sleeper, and we've gotten into a good routine.  All 3 children have had such distinctly different personalities from the get go.  I remember once Maiya learned to smile, you couldn't turn it off.  She smiled huge at everything and laughed at everything.  Aftyn's personality is much more subdued.  She CAN smile, but she really makes you work for it. She is very calm.   And, for right now at least, she doesn't mind being left alone even for long periods of time (like 30 min.).  The kids and I will be in a different room, and I will hear her cooing and just talking to herself. Though most of the time I go get her. It is so sweet. We are so happy to have her.

Don't Judge! I was busy over Christmas!

Yeah, I am a bit behind with posting these Christmas pictures.  But, I feel I have a good excuse.  Having a baby a few days before can put the Christmas blogging behind a bit, but I thought these pictures were too cute to not post.  So, better late than never...

Dressed in their new church attire :)

So glad they love each other <3

Pretty Maiya

Ha! Quincey's face is priceless.  He got the Woody doll that he wanted so badly.
And Maiya got her costumes... Santa came through for them. :)

AND a Buzz!  He must have been a good boy this past year.

Princess Piano for our Princess

And here is our real present, Miss Aftyn

She has changed so much already!


Before Christmas we got to do lots of fun winter festivities like:
Wear Santa hats and drink Hot Cocoa.........


Make Tortilla snowflakes.... (these were actually really yummy, we got the idea from here)



Visit Santa Clause (we only got a pic of Maiya with Santa, sorry Q)
And of Course, we got to make our own little Snow man. 
Overall, it was a very successful and memorable Christmas Holiday!
