Anna’s First Snow!

We got some fun snow here on Monday . . . and while it was technically Anna’s second snow, the first one was super-light and overnight, so we are not counting that!  We bundled up our little pink lady and headed out in the winter weather!  The snow on the ground and trees truly really helps set the scene for Christmas!IMG_0771

We got the boys ready to head off to school too . . . they were a little tired, can you tell?  IMG_0746-1 IMG_0751 IMG_0754

Hatch said that William talked a mile a minute on the way to school, but Hudson just stared quietly out the window . . . until he figured out how to roll down the window . . . then he panicked! IMG_0757 IMG_0764

Little Miss and I slept in (!!), ran some errands, and popped by Sugie’s so we could visit Mr. P and feed Little Miss before picking up the cows from school.

I love that even though he is 1, Charlie knows that Anna is a baby!  He talks to her in a sweet, high voice, and he just LOVES being with her.  It is adorable!

Anna turned 8 weeks old on Monday . . . it is FLYING by!  I love this picture of her wearing a sweet outfit that her Nana (my Nana) gave her.  Precious! IMG_0791  IMG_0825

Our sweet friend and neighbor made us an Advent Wreath since I wasn’t able to go to the Christmas coffee and make one myself!  The boys scream “Happy Birthday, JESUS!” when we light it, and they are obsessed with trying to blow out the candles.  {Please ignore the fact that the wrong two candles are lit—that was my husbands doing . . . not mine!} IMG_0841

Sweet William with his smocked nativity . . . I love it!

Turning two really helped the boys get the hang of blowing out candles!  We are trying to work on sharing and taking turns . . . Hudson gets to blow out one, and William gets to blow out one candle.  Somehow, upon turning two, they have both started screaming “MINES!” (ie: mine!) and they’ve become quite intense about doing things themselves . . . oh, two . . . oh my!

Little Miss gets in the spirit of Christmas!  I adore this sweet girl!  She is cooing and smiling a lot right now, but it is quite a challenge to capture it on film . . . mainly because I just enjoy her grins and cannot simultaneously run and grab my camera!  She likes to be awake when her brothers go to bed, so we have a nice little time to visit together!IMG_0956 IMG_0961  IMG_0965

She did take a catnap with her Daddy last night, and it was quite sweet! IMG_0971Oh, my LOVE!IMG_0973

Sweet Dreams!  (And stay warm in this snow!)
