Christmas 2011

I have been neglecting my blog something fierce here lately, as always my excuse of the day is: BUSY!  The holiday season is winding to a close and I feel like things are slowly returning to normal.  Here's how Christmas went for the Gardner's this year:

First off, we got some snow on Christmas Eve! It was a pretty little snow with the hugest flakes I've seen in a long time.  Zoey had a great time playing in it. 

Charlotte thought sister was crazy to be out there in that cold!  She likes to be warm and dry thank you very much.  A few milestones for our big nugget, she's waving, saying Momma and Dada, pulling up, and crawling!  It seems like we turned our heads for a second and she is all grown up.  Her crawling cracks us up, it's very stiff and robotic and she usually only does it when she's upset about something.  What a little stinker!

Christmas morning!  Zoey was so excited to see Santa had come with a wagon for Charlotte and a LaLa Loopsy doll for her.

Charlotte was a little confused why we were doing all this weird stuff so early in the morning.  Since Zoey has been on vacation from school and Beau and I aren't working at all we've gotten into a very lazy routine in our house.  Zoey wakes up and gets in bed with us and Charlotte wakes up and we grab her and usually lay in bed for like half an hour before we get up and moving.  It's going to be a shock when we have to start waking up for school again haha!

The girls trying out the new wagon!

Charlotte playing with some of her new toys. 

We skyped with Nana and Papa so they could see the girls open their presents. Don't ya just love technology!

Zoey also got a costume complete with a wig to match her new LaLa Loopsy doll.  She has had so much fun dressing up and playing with all of her new stuff.

Of course sister couldn't miss out on all the fun!  Wouldn't she be sweet with head full of long curly hair?  I'll pass on the pink though haha.

Hope everyone had a great Christmas like we did!
