Wendy has taken to climbing the trees in the front yard.

PJ put up all our Christmas lights on the house!

Luckily it was almost 80 degrees when he did it!



"She climbs a tree and scrapes her knee..."


Finished product! He did such a great job!



Afternoon walks (before it got too cold)

Manicures!

Wendy built a tower and did not want Lilly to play with it so I told her I would take a picture so we could remember it forever. 

We had the Activity Day girls over and they had cookie "medallions" as prizes for the winning team. 

The girls were busy playing their game while....

Princess Wendy watched!

We had snow in Austin! 

Nighttime riding. 

This is how Wendy dressed to inspect the snow. Princess shoes and all!

Proof that Lilly's hair is growing. 

We couldn't believe we received snow and made sure to document it in hopes it's not a usual thing. 




PJ's "ugly" Christmas sweater. 



It was still on the ground the next day too! But quickly melted by noon. 



Out and about town. 

PJ brought me flowers for a date we were going on and Wendy wanted to hold them. 

PJ's Apple Christmas party. 

Pictures from the photo booth. 





Wendy likes to "curl up" in the floor mat and pretend to take a nap. 

She also helped to pump up my tires with our bicycle pump. 

Climbing the tree again. Almost to the top!

Making snacks for book club!

Wendy found out she could crawl into Lilly's crib so it became a new place for them to play. 

Another manicure. Twinning!

It has been getting cold here in Austin so the girls have started camping out in front of the space heater in the mornings. 

And playing in Baxter's kennel. 

Nighttime climbing. 

Lilly the alien! 

Baxter's turn. 

Daughter-daddy date at Chickfila.


Wendy doing princess dances. 

And cooking for Lilly. 

In the nursery at church, they dressed the kids up like people from Jesus' time and acted out the story of Jesus' birth. 

Playing in the rain!

Playing dressup!


PJ won these pajamas at a white elephant party. The girls thought they were pretty cool too!

Wendy doing her Wendy stuff. 


I found these wooden puzzles for a deal and Wendy took no time at all to put them all together!

I also rearranged Wendy's room. 


Knight Baxter. He wanted to be prince...

Family walkin'!

The girls in their Christmas best!


Cheesing it with Grandma!



Wendy would not smile for any of the family pictures we took but she was all to happy to pose at church. 

Baxter on Christmas morning breaking into his toys!

Wendy got her beloved scooter (thanks Pop!)

And Santa gifted them a car that they were a little unsure about. 


Back in that tree!

Christmas dinner with Grandma!


All Christmas'd out. 

PJ received a shaving kit complete with a lather brush for Christmas. He makes it look cool. 

Lilly throwing a fit but also in a strange position. 

Wendy's bed tent from her Great-Uncle Brad. Everyone was excited to use it!

PJ grilled this pork. I thought it looked so pretty!

Sometimes you just can't get enough water. 

Lilly at her 18 month check up. 

Wendy made sure to read to us to make sure we were OK. 

Yet another manicure!

We left Lilly's booster seat on the table and I came around the corner to clean up and found Wendy making herself comfortable on top of the table!

Shopping with Auntie Amber!


Scooting around the house!

Beautiful dresses from Nanna. 

Merry Christmas!
