Snow Belles

Here come more pictures without much eloquence :)

We spent christmas weekend with my family down in Vancouver. All attempts by my mom to get a group picture of the grandkids all smiling and looking the same direction were unsuccessful. Here are the girls (Lauren, Aubree, Etta & Addie) There is a picture of an attempt at one with Asa later on.

My girls both got matching pj's in their stockings:

the shirts say "Snow Belle" and there is a matching red tutu

Etta was not fond of sharing my arms with a little one.

I couldn't get over the cuteness of these two girls together. 

How great to have a cousin so close in age to fight over toys with and share a story with!

Asa is such a happy little guy.

Addie was delighted to put her diapering skills to work. She has had a lot of practice on Lion, 

but he does not squirm as much!

Aubree has such a delightfully expressive face. I don't know where she learned it, but Addie has no where near the skills of her cousin. Her little looks just crack me up.

The cousins were in matching dresses from grandma. 

From behind it was hard to tell at a glance who was who :)

Asa was not thrilled about little baby feet touching him.

Cheryl & I met at the Childrens Museum and Addie & Aubree got some fun play & exploration in.

Reaching for her favorite milk.

They both wore their new tutu's. Here they are giving baths to dogs at the vet clinic there.

Who says you cant wear tutus while digging a ditch? Just make sure to have on the appropriate footwear!

Playing makes you thirsty.

Oops! A few out of order pictures I am too lazy to re-arrange:

Etta with Papa.

(I am looking at this picture & realizing it is time for her to get a haircut. Her hair looks cute in a ponytail but those do not always last long. When it is down like this it gets looking a little straggly. 

Asa showing of his super powers in his new cape.

Aubree did a dance for us in her new tap shoes and tutus (she layered two of them). 

Then she stopped, came over to those of us who were taking pictures and said  "show's over." 

What a little ham!
