| {352/365: Christmas came early} Since we'll be with Nick's family for Christmas this year, we celebrated with my family today. We watched a little White Christmas, exchanged gifts, and ate a wonderful meal. It was so fun to watch Kate excitedly open her gifts. Caroline just wanted to eat hers. ;) PS- Kate is wearing MY candy cane dress from when I was 2. My nana sewed it, and my mom did the smocking. |

{oh.my.word.} Normally Kate has a cow if Caroline barely touches her, but Nick was a miracle worker! He not only got Kate to sit still for 2 seconds, but also to HUG her sister and smile for the camera???? Huge props to Daddy! This photo is so precious and will be one we treasure always. And a few more... |

**Watch for my Project 365 pic to get posted tomorrow. I had a girls' night out tonight, so I didn't have time to edit what I took. I should have some good ones to share, though! See you back tomorrow...

| {pinch hitter} Kate wouldn't wear the Rudolph headband, so Kirby posed with Caroline instead. Doesn't she look humiliated?? iPhone | Instagram app |
I finished my first roll of 120 film in my Holga camera a couple of months ago, but I took forever to finally send it in. There are only a few that turned out even okay, but with a toy camera & medium format, they're really not supposed to be perfect. I could definitely use some practice, though! I'm asking Santa for more film in my stocking. :)

| {soon to crawl?} Caroline is very mobile. She rolls and scootches all over the place to get where she wants, which is usually right by Kate or to get to Kate's toys. :) There were several times today when Nick and I looked at each other with big eyes because Caroline was getting her booty up in the air and her legs underneath her like she was just ready to crawl off. She might be ready, but I'm sure not!! |
And I had to include this one of her rolls...

| {exersaucering double-take} Keep scrolling down to see pics of Kate exersaucering when she was only 2 days older than Caroline. People keep telling me that Caroline looks like Kate, but other than the eye color and chubby cheeks, I don't see it. What do you think? |
Pics of Kate... taken when I was still on "auto!" :)
