Meeting Santa
After Breakfast with Santa we took the girls over to the mall so they could visit with Santa!
Tayten was all about it and Hollis was to until we took her out of the stroller!
Santa Picture
2012
This is such a classic picture and I LOVE it!
Santa was SO good with them. He spent a ton time talking to Tayten and even to Hollis after she was back in the stroller. We hung the picture up on the fridge and every time we walk by it Hollis gets a very sad face and points but then say's HO HO HO and tries to hug him!

Gingerbread House Building
Daddy helped Tayten put together a gingerbread house. We had a huge mess but they had so much fun! Hollis even got in on the action.
T was such a big helper!
The little Miss
Almost ready to decorate!
Those little candy balls were nearly the death of me. I chased them around everywhere!
Hollis would put candy on the house then take it back off and put it somewhere else. She was so funny to watch.
oh and she had to try some of course
She was totally into it
Finished house & one proud girl!

Breakfast with Santa
A few Saturday's ago we went to the Purdue Union for Breakfast with Santa. It was so CRAZY busy and packed with people that we didn't even get to see Santa. Honestly I think the girls were so overwhelmed with the amount of people because we couldn't get them to do anything :(
They made a little jingle bell wreath.
Tayten's favorite part of the whole thing is the giant gingerbread house.
It's almost impossible to get a good picture of Hollis...she would rather explore than stand still :)

Triming the tree
It was super cold out when we went to get our tree the day after Thanksgiving so we quickly picked one and I didn't take one picture! It wasn't that exciting anyway....
Tayten LOVED putting the lights on. She tried to do it all by her self but we talked her into letting us help her out a bit!
Hollis on the other hand, pretty much just ran around, kept pointing at the tree and yelling ut-oh at it! She's really not sure what it think of it and she hasn't really bothered it. Not like I imagined at all.
We decorated it the next day while Hollis was napping :)
Tayten thought it would be much easier without Hollis helping!!
She is still talking about putting the star and ribbon on!
The toy room is all decorated as well. We added a new felt tree this year that they both love.
They play with it almost every day and of course they have their little pink tree and also a bigger tree with pink lights, pink ribbon, & lots of glitter ornaments!
The finished tree!
November Catch Up & Phone dump!
WOW! I haven't blogged in a LONG time! It would take me forever to get caught up back to November so I'll just do a brief update and start back with December!
One Sunday in November Tayten and I went to a play at the Civic Theater. It was put on by the children's club. We saw Lilly's Purple Plastic Purse! I wasn't sure how she would do but she did GREAT and LOVED it!
Before the show started...popcorn time!
After it was over we went for a little ice cream date.
Such a fun time with my big girl!
Tayten decided she can write her name!
We were way proud of her of course but she doesn't think it's that BIG of a deal. Her teacher's are impressed to...they haven't even started working on names yet!!
We got all decorated up for Christmas around here(Lots more to come on that) but one evening before bedtime Tayten put together an interesting combination on Santa's sleigh!
As you can tell, Hollis is still a hot mess! :)
We enjoyed lots of open gym time in November
Hollis really loves it!
We did a whole lot more in November but that's all I got pictures of, don't worry I've got ton's and ton's of posts ahead!
