Its Christmas time in the Booth home!

This year, preparing for Christmas was extra special.  Alexandra is getting old enough to understand about holidays and want to actively participate.

 She had a great time helping Anthony put the tree up.

 And Sophi had fun hanging out in the Bumbo - which she is quickly outgrowing (based on her arching her back...not the chubbiness of her cute little legs!)

 Ali was super excited about the snow this year.  I made her wait until Anthony got home from work to go out and explore.  She really wanted to make a snow girl (we don't do snowmen!).

 I guess I forgot to take a picture of the final product but she ended up with a purple scarf, grape eyes and an apple mouth.  She was sure cute.

 The girls enjoyed some quality tummy time together.  At Sophi's 4 month appointment (where she weighed in at 16 lbs - you go girl!) the pediatrician noticed that her head is flat.  I took her to the specialist and they deemed it moderately flat.  Which means that I need to do a better job keeping her off her head (especially the right side) to encourage growth on the flat side.  I take her back at the end of January to have her reevaluated.  Here's to hoping she won't need a helmet!

 After setting up the Christmas tree Ali kept asking if Christmas was "today".  So, we made a paper chain to help countdown until Christmas.  That worked for only 2 days.  She was not very happy about tearing pieces off of her chain. 

 Yes, she's a poser!

  I love my beautiful girls!

Anthony and I celebrated our anniversary in December.  We spent the entire day together - we went to breakfast, then to see Harry Potter, we went home for a wardrobe change and Nana picked Sophi up so we could go to the temple and then to dinner.  It was a wonderful day and I enjoyed every moment with my sweet hubby.  I love you Anthony!  Happy 5th anniversary!
