Sweet Girls !!

So, I decided before the chaos of XMAS day arrives that it would be a good idea to get some decent photos of the girls in their XMAS PJ's.  Charlotte was initially not cooperating but after a bottle she fell right to sleep and remained asleep for all of the photos....not the ideal but was still able to get some pretty good ones !!!  On another note, I asked SG what she wanted Santa to bring her for XMAS and she said a rocking horse and a popsicle ... hmmmm ... that popsicle might be a little interesting in the morning !!

Believe in the Magic !!!

I can't believe it's that time of year again...the time of beautiful trees, lights (both the kind on trees and the candles found on menorahs...at least in our house anyway !!), and most importantly making memories with family and friends.  I can't believe that it was almost one year ago that we found out that we would be adding another precious miracle to our family.  I can't believe that I will be 35 this year and I can't believe that in 2011 I will become the Mommy of a 3 year old.

There are many "I can't believe's" but I will tell you one thing I do believe in .... the magic ... not the "pull a rabbit out of your hat" kind of magic, but the "light up your face" kind of magic that happened when SG helped me light the candles on the menorah or the wonder on her face when she pulls her prize out of the advent calendar each evening.  I really really can't wait until we see the magic of Santa at work on Christmas morning !!

Wherever you are or whatever you are doing this holiday season ... I truly wish you magic !!
