Angie, Al, Sydney and Gillian: Christmas 2011

Well the days leading up to Christmas and Christmas were pretty fun.

Although our girls don't like to see Santa or sit on his lap, they sure do like that he comes to the house when they are sleeping, so they don't have to see him:)

Here Syd and Gilly are opening their presents from the Miller Christmas back home in MN. Syd got to Dora DVD's, she was pretty happy.

Syd enjoying the cupcake, or mainly the frosting:)

December 19th, Gillian turned 10 months old, wow we can't believe it. She is such a happy baby, and loves to eat, if you can't tell. She has 7 teeth and I am pretty sure she is working on her 1 yr molars, they are not coming in so nice! She loves to stand up to stuff and just this week crawled for the first time, she isn't crawling all over yet but she is getting braver about trying to get things etc., and the fun begins! She has learned a few pieces of sign language, and Sydney in turn teaches her babies as well, pretty cute!

On December 22 we got some snow, it was crazy and fun. Syd wanted to go out and play in it, but as you can see there wasn't enough and it was gone by the next day.

December 24th, Christmas Eve

Opening gifts from my family back in MN.

Gilly got a photo book with lots of pictures of her with family and all she wanted to do was kiss it:)

Stockings from Grandma and Grandpa

The main gift from everyone back in MN, the John Deere Gator.

They opened a small gator in the house and Syd was thrilled then when we went outside and she saw the real one, she was so excited. "Mom it is just like Caden's" So cute. Gilly loved it too, she really liked watching Syd drive around on it. Oh and the green glasses were a gift too and she had to wear them all day.
