Cindy Lou Hoo's!

 

This is such a magical time of year!  The girls are SO EXCITED about Santa's big visit and have found that the countdown to Christmas is (almost) as much fun as the real deal! 

 

I have found that with three kids under 4 1/2, getting anything accomplished is a task in itself, and adding the stress of the "Christmas rush" to that hasn't helped!  Between Christmas shopping, entertaining, addressing cards, etc. I have turned into a stressed out Mrs. Scrooge!  Throw in a torn shoulder muscle and carpal tunnel in both wrists too, and I might as well be the Grinch!!

 

Even though Mommy may be feeling a little more like the Grinch this year, you  better believe the girls are channeling their inner Cindy Lou Hoo! 

 

The girls have been busy at preschool making lots of Christmas crafts and Hailey has stayed after school a few days for Enrichment afternoons.  So far she's made ornaments, books and Christmas cookies!  I've been helping out in both of the girls rooms when I can and they are both excited about their class Christmas parties this week.  Avery had fun at an ornament exchange with lots of other Harris Williams babies and Doug and I had a great time at his office Christmas party.  We also had a great visit from the Wilkey's and lots of fun at Ella's birthday party.  The girls also had their winter gymnastics show and both girls got blue ribbons!
