Gingerbread Cookies

Wearing Christmas aprons and making yummy gingerbread cookies...


...Roons was stupefied as to why everyone else was choosing to roll out and cut their dough rather than eat it as fast as they could, which was clearly the better option.








Verity's final cookies.







Rooney's final "cookie."









Merry Christmas!



We just got home from a WONDERFUL Christmas visit with Matthew's family. The girls had an absolute blast. I would never have thought that a ten day trip would feel too short, but it sure did. Stay tuned for our highlights!

Sweetest Three Year Old









Trimming the Tree

Our special ornaments from Great-Grandma Janet.

"Here you go, Mommy!"




The girls had so much fun taking them out of the box.
















































Swaddled Dollies




The girls are loving their dolls these days, and their favorite thing to do is swaddle them and rock them to sleep. (Yes, that is a headband on top of a hat on Roons...she recently upped her daily minimum of hair accessories to two at a time.)
