Christmas Eve-Eve

We did our family Christmas on Christmas eve's eve. Johnny had to work all day Friday and we were heading up to Dallas Friday night and then to Seattle early Saturday morning - so we did our Christmas Thursday night.

We got the girls all "Chutes & Ladders" - they were excited!
(sorry terrible pix!)
Hollie got a new coat & Shy & Natles got new jeansHollie's new hat

Natalee's been dying for a pillow pet ever since Shy & Hollie got one from their birth mom.
Someone gave us this one - it's a unicorn - not my favorite... but SHE WAS THRILLED!
New P.J.s for each of the girls. Natalee's are so stinkin cute:
Every time the girls see Pez candies in the store they beg for them - so they were thrilled to find them in their stockings!
Daddy & Natles opening stockingsThe girls each got a new water bottle:

We ended our night with a RIVETING game of Chutes & Ladders
Doesn't Shy look riveted???
Just how does THIS LADY take pictures that make playing a board game look like it belongs in a magazine?! I mean really. I tried. And it looks like we're playing... a board game. ha!

ooops!

I just realized that those "8 Month" pics I posted a few days ago weren't the 8 month pix.  They were more like one day shy of 7 month pictures... and THESE are the 8 month pictures! ha. o well... not much difference.  My editing was terrible in the 7 month pix - these are unedited, and probably for the best since it's not my strong suite! ha! (isn't this outfit from Nonnie ADORABLE!?) Love, love, love this one:    This is a typical face.  If he's not sucking in his lip, he's spitting and soaking his shirt with drool! (sorry so blurry - just had to remember this face!)
