Decorating for Christmas

This is the first year that Sophie has seemed to care about Christmas, and it was so fun to have her help us decorate the tree!










This pretty much sums up what Elsie felt about decorating.



After decorating, we tried to take a few family pictures for Christmas cards. I think this picture is hilarious! Sophie had had enough of smiling for the camera! (But isn't Mike's smile pretty?!?)

Now just a few miscellaneous pictures. One of Sophie's new favorite things is to wash her hands and face at the sink after mealtimes. Look at that pretty (yet messy) smile!



Mike's idea of privacy for a photo taken during bath-time!



The morning after we had tried to take our family pictures, Sophie grabbed Mike's tripod and brought it to him because I guess she wanted to take some more pictures. Here she is posing with her "Baby Bear" in the bumbo.

Sophie, your smile is too cute for words. And Elsie, way to be modest, girl. Hope you guys have a terrific Christmas!
