Christmas Eve

We spent Christmas Eve over at Grandnan and Pops house, as we do every year. But this year, Aunt Gina organized the first annual Christmas performance. Tommy was Joseph and Callie was baby Jesus. The kids all sang Away In a Manger, Silent Night and Jingle Bells. I will see about posting some video, because that truly captures the precious hilarity of the performance and all the different personalities coming through. But for now, here are some stills to enjoy!

Tommy's birthday party

Last Saturday we celebrated Tommy's 4th birthday. We had an Ensworth theme birthday party in the gym at my school and we had a blast. The guests of honor were Antonio and Andrew. If you follow the blog, you know Antonio is the student of mine who is now playing at UT (the enormous one in the pictures). Andrew is the quarterback at Ensworth. Tommy adores both of them and was beside himself that he got to play football with them at his party. It was an amazing day!

Pulling up already?



Here is Callie's new trick. She started pulling up last week at school. Looks like we may have a little daredevil on our hands. She isn't even crawling on her knees yet (she has mastered the army crawl but that's it) and we already have to watch out for her.

Breakfast with Santa

This year, Tommy FINALLY made it on to Santa's lap! We convinced him that he needed to show his little sister that there was nothing to be afraid of and he did great. We had our annual Breakfast with Santa on Saturday the 3rd with all the cousins and it was a great day. When asked what Tommy wanted for Christmas, he said "presents". I guess he'll be easy to please.
