Retro Red


Christmas came a few days early for Amelia this year, as we're headed up north in a few days to see Grandpa and Grandma B. Needless to say, the kitchen has been a big hit and she keeps herself quite busy tinkering around on it. It is of utmost importance to have on her apron while she is cooking and telling us that the stove is hot.

tidbits of Christmas

"whaaane"

Amelia has been so excited about the rain this week, I think its the first time she remembers seeing it (yes, that is how little we get it here). We had Travis and Kim over for an evening of gift exchanging and Mexican food last weekend. The girls had a blast opening presents, Morgan ripping off the paper to see what was inside, Amelia tearing off small pieces of paper and taking them one by one to the trash can. Yikes! And as you can see, I tortured Amelia into sitting with Santa after much coaxing and crying. Morgan did the same thing. We've never had the girls cling onto us so tightly! They did enjoy their candy cane's afterward though.

Amelia meets EJ

wearing EJ's sassy sunglasses

why people think we have twins...

Last week we had a visit from our dear friends Andy, Jenny and baby EJ. It was so good to see them again! Jenny and I had fun catching up and strolling the girls around town in the balmy Southern California weather. Amelia loved having EJ around and kept giving her kisses and saying "baaaybee." We all headed to In N Out their last night here because we couldn't send them back to the East coast without at least one double double.
