Christmas Eve

A couple of adorable pictures of my little girls in the nursery on Christmas Eve.  Aren't they beautiful in their matching dresses?

pre-Christmas

Ali had a handful of straws and was singing into them like a microphone.

Mommy walked out of the shower to this scene -- everyone in santa hats eating breakfast... how cute!

These girls sure love each other!

Ali's Christmas Boogie

More of our trip to Ottawa!!

Ali saw so many people sitting just like this, that she wanted to do it herself... she had no idea what else to do though other than sit, hold the mouse, and stare at the screen. The things kids learn!

Ali reading with Grandma and Sammy

Evelyn and Great Grandma!!!

The patient, Louis, was able to hold Evelyn for a few seconds :)

Ali and daddy, taking a nap on the couch. It sure is hard to get kids to take naps in strange houses... this method worked best!

Reading!

And watching SUPER WHY! (Ali's favourite!)

December in Saint John

One morning Ali decided to make grandma a picture, and then call her and describe it to her... it was awfully cute!  She has yet to learn that actions and pictures don't transfer over telephone lines though!

The result of a series of unfortunate events.  Thankfully all humans are ok, but the car is still in the hospital.

My girls in the tub :)

I love my little reader!

My girls playing the keyboard together 

One of Ali's newest favourite things to do is try to do mommy's hair... she grooms me like Curious George does to the man in the yellow hat!

Ali and daddy went for a walk and returned with a Christmas tree!!

It's beginning to look a lot like Christmas around the Kline home!  Snow AND a tree :)

Evelyn's first trip to Ottawa!!

At the end of November we made a quick family trip up to Ottawa for a few days so we could see family and friends, and Evelyn could meet everyone!

Evelyn meets Amy!

Uncle John with his two little neices :)

Kelsey was really excited to meet Evie.  We sure miss the Rafuses!

Evie's bath in grandma's kitchen sink -- she thought it was pretty fun!  Look at those beautiful eyes!

Nanny was happy to meet her youngest great-granddaughter!

All the visiting and meeting people sure wore Evelyn out

Great Aunt Wendy

Ali sure enjoyed Nicole and Brooke

Evie and Great Aunt Pam

Kels and Brody gave Ali a pink glittery purse and pink glittery shoes -- look at the joy in that face when she first saw those shoes!!!

We had a fantastic trip -- it was refreshing to spend time with our family and some of our closest friends.  We love and miss you all!!
