Due to the Christmas season we haven't seen as much of our friends as we usually do. Clara has been asking about Riah for at least 2 weeks now and she was so excited when I said he was coming over with Ms. Michelle and Baby Jonah today!
Emma and Jonah jammed out for a little while on the music table.
Jonah stuck his finger in Emma's mouth so she poked him in the eye.
Such strange baby bonding rituals.
Clara and Riah made meals in the play kitchen, had a tea party, did some sliding and then played with the doll house.
Jonah is crawling really well now and likes to explore!
Phew, it was a busy couple of days. Since we missed nap time while we were at the Evans' our girls passed out immediately once in the car.
When we got home Emma needed a bit of a wardrobe change, so we went ahead and put her in her pajamas. We let the girls stay up a little bit later than usual because of the late naptime.
Lots of playtime with new and old toys!
Clara cracks me up with her ballerina kicks everywhere!
I asked her to twirl to show me her pretty dress:
Love these two girls!
We read several of the new books and then it was time for bed.
This Christmas Adventure is over, and sure was a good one.
Clara was super duper happy when she saw we were pulling up to "Meatball's House"!
Even more happy when she saw that Grandpa was there!
Wow. Just wow. Do they look like 2 peas in a pod or what? (mannerisms)
With Uncle Ronnie
Shiny bracelet!
One of Clara's favorite things to do at Meatball's house is to raid the baskets of toys in the entry way. This time Grandpa joined her!
Lunch was delicious as always!!
Snuggles with MeMaw
Refusing to eat
So that the adults could get some kiddo-free conversation time we put Alexandra, Maddie and Ronnie in charge of Clara and Emma for a little while. They did really well with them!
Emma and Aunt Alexandra
Clara showed everyone how to play peekaboo with Emma :)
Emma loves that game!
Then Clara put Maddie to night night several times, haha; she was a great sport!
Love all of the adorable stockings!
Sweet girl
Oh boy! Another gift for me!?
Sweet tiny two
Ronnie built this A&M lamp for Bryan! Skills!
Somehow I forgot to take a picture of this nutcracker (Bryan collects them) from MeMaw. It's a computer nerd nutcracker. It couldn't possibly be more fitting.
Cool!! Thanks Aunt Lety, Uncle Roger & Maddie!
Paw, Grandpa and Celina watching the fun

What is this!? ohhh pretty bow. ohhh pretty puppy.
Both Emma and Clara love Emma's new Little People School Bus! And Clara's new baby doll has joined the ranks here at home. She's already had several diaper changes and been fed Cheerios.
Thank you for baby doll!
Hugs for Aunt Lety!
Yummy purple bow - priorities, people
I'm not sure what Clara is thinking in the below picture, but it absolutely cracks me up. I also love the way her eyes look here!
Thank you for the giraffe puzzle MeMaw!
The doctor kit was a smashing success. It's a good thing new baby doll's heart is ok. "It no hurt, baby, it ok"
Checking Paw's ears out
Playing with Grandpa
Anything in there, Grandpa!?
Checking Baby Emma's heart and lungs and feet and elbows. All good to go.
"Stay still, Emma! I doctor."
Baby doll off to school
Emma wants a turn
Poor Clara wanted that candy cane so badly, but Mommy insisted she HAD to eat her lunch first. Guess who finally ate her lunch around 3:30 for that candy cane?
