My brother and his family came all the way from Canada to visit for Christmas. We had a wild time with all the kids (8 of them ranging from 5 months- 5 1/2 years).
My brother with my niece Wren. She loves babies and was wanting to hold Enna.
My beautiful Mom with Nora. Nora is constantly trying to get my mom to play in her imaginary world.
The busy room full of wrapped toys and baby toys! :)
Nora wanted to dance to the Christmas carols we were singing. She had recently watched the Nutcracker ballet which was the inspiration for her dancing.
One of the twin babies (my sister's boys)
I kept catching these sweet pictures of Nora standing by the tree watching all the activity.
The boys sitting together,sharing a sweet moment
And the other twin...little Eli, such a sweet little miracle
Opening presents with the cousins!
One of the best moments was when Eli started ripping the wrapping paper and laughing. There's nothing better than a baby's belly laugh.
Nora pretending to be a present
Nora had a Rapunzel/Tangled theme this Christmas. After getting dressed up she wanted us to all sing "Ten Thousand Reasons/Bless the Lord Oh My Soul" while she danced yet again.
The boys were busy "excavating" dinosaurs. They pounded away for quite awhile. It was noisy, but kept them pretty busy.
Sweet little Wren
The two oldest--they are just about 2 months apart in age and really enjoyed each other this year.
The middle 2 are exactly 2 months apart in age and had a great time playing all sorts of make believe games. Caspian would play dolls and house with her and they kept on for hours. Nora loved it!
All the babies with their grandparents!
Xan-almost 6, Aidan-5 1/2, Caspian-3 1/2, Nora-3, Wren-16 months, Lane-8 months, Eli-8 months, and Enna-5 months
