Merry, Merry Christmas!

 

Vivian

It was about time for some pink and bows!  Vivian Rhys arrived on the 21st, just in time to come home for Christmas Eve.

 Big brothers and big cousins are all thrilled to have our new Vivian to love and kiss!

Caroling, McG Style

Getting in the mood for the holidays we listen to a lot of Mitch Miller on repeat since Taffe likes hearing the "mens' sing.  We heard a nice little jingle of songs at Taffe's school Christmas party. Awesome rendition of a bell song.

To wrap up our musical moments of the day, Taffe and Kingston jammed on the piano.  Harmonizing and making a duet... I promise it doesn't sound like banging at all.

Tea for Two

Taffe is quite the little mimic these days.  He carries his cell phone in his poket and needs to check "something on my computer." Since I have tea almost daily, Taffe likes to take sips.  But once he found this tea cup (which is actually an ornament!) he insisted upon having tea "in my own cup!"

 Kingston was just excited to be part of the tea party.  No tea needed... just some cups to bang around. And he is 9 months!!! 3 teeth, and just starting to scoot around!

Kids' Christmas

Our playgroup's annual Christmas Party.  Success!

Big Kids

We've gotten so big we now have 2 separate photo sessions.

Babies

Moving... but not yet crawling!

Pajamas and party clothes

Thanks J family for hosting this fun morning!

School is In

Taffe was most excited that he could see the seal from the book in this picture.

School is so very cool.

The Look says it All

I think this may be my favorite Santa picture to date. Priceless.
