Making homemade pasta is a labor of love and is more enjoyable with numerous sets of hands. So Saturday night we tackled a meal that will be remembered in 2007 as one of the best!

The babes needed a bath the next morning so we combined efforts and cleaned two at once. The certainly are bathing beauty's!!!

Christmas Dinner...on the 26th

We were just a little too tired to tackle Christmas dinner on the 25th. So we slept on it and made a delicious dinner last night of King Salmon, lemon risotto and steamed green beans. It was made extra special with some hollandaise! It was worth the wait!

Ho Ho Ho

Doob and Santa had a nice laugh! And that blue eye poking through the white hair looks a little familiar! LaLa and MoMo took turns with the VW wagon!

And they sure do love each other.

"Sisters, Sister there were never such devoted sisters!"

Little Maria took a small snooze on her dad's lap while we had pizza on Sunday. Too cute.

Philly

Dada Doob and Monet waiting for Santa . Monet wasn't scared of him! She actually was excited to see him and waved and smiled at him.

Here are Cory, Kelley and Monet on Santa's lap.

The Puhl's came by on Saturday for a visit and Monet got to know Justin, Alyssa and TJ. Tommy is an old friend of Doob's.

Danny, Jeannie's oldest son, held Monet so they could place the star on the tree. Monet and Danny hit it off and we all think he will be a GREAT dad some day!

Here Monet is in her red party dress. She was a hit, and only kept the hair bow in for the photo.

Today we went to a wonderful Christmas party! Our friends Alice and Ben were the hosts and fun was had by all! The babies had their first taste of Christmas sugar cookies and all left the party with green lips and tongues. Thanks for the memories!

Daddy's Little Helper

We got our tree up and Monet loved helping with each part!

1st Haircut

Today we got Monet's bangs trimmed...not really a true haircut, but we documented it of course.

Tigger goes for a ride

Monet wanted to go in her backpack and visit the horses across the street...something we did on a daily basis before snow fell. So instead of that we encouraged her to take one of her toys for a ride in a smaller backpack. Tigger was the lucky guy and got a nice ride all over the house. She of course had to check out her passenger in the mirror.

She has also been riding her rocking horse more and more!!

Let it Snow, Let it Snow

They may lose week after week, but this loyal fan in NH still represents, even while snow blowing!

Welcome December

Nanna came bearing gifts on Friday and her and Monet had a grand time playing with them. She can now make her dollies wooden sandwiches and peel them plastic oranges. Her stuffed animals have never had it so good.

Doob took this photo of her in the bath tonight. She was reading her dolphin book very intently surrounded by bubbles.

This snow fall was from a week ago and I had to take her out in it...no snow boots and all. But we did get her a new pair of boots this afternoon so we are all set for the MAJOR WEATHER EVENT heading our way!!
