Merry Christmas, the girls turn 7 months old!

Sheesh it's been a busy couple of months! With the all the holidays and family and friend visits, I never thought I'd be able to get this month's post finished.... Even though it's been in draft for a few weeks! So because the holidays fell on the time that the girls turned 7 months old, we didn't have to go back to Cincinnati at all this month, and only a nurses visit to the pediatrician's here in town, so there's not a lot to report as far as doctor updates go, but Ellie is around 13 lbs and Trenna is over 10lbs now! So because there isn't a lot to report, I'll just post all the cute Christmas pictures we did with the girls!

We never got the chance to send out real Christmas cards this year, so this was our on line greetings to everyone

Aunt B's birthday was December 15, so she came by for a visit. You can't see their shirts, but Trenna's said " My auntie rocks" and Ellie's said "My aunt is my BFF"

The girls and their first picture with Santa... they didn't know what to think of him.... but if you look close, you can see Ellie was twirling her hand in his beard!

The many faces of Christmas Ellie

Lots of crazy stuff happened this month.... Including Trevor being hit on his way home from work one evening and it flipping his car completely upside down, but soooo thankful he was unharmed, minus a few sore muscles. And then there was the night we came home from my parents house, where we celebrated our family Christmas that night and had strong winds, a down pour and tornado sirens going off..... and discovered that the winds were so strong they tore a chunk of our shingles right off the roof, so in the pics below was Trevor temporarily tarpping it until we got it fixed!

Yup, that would be Trevor's car UPSIDE DOWN in the street!

 

But besides all those crazy events, we had a great Christmas spent with out families, playing Phase 10 with Aunt B and Aunt Annie, going to Jessamine Christian Church with the whole Sherwood clan for the Christmas Eve service and the girls even got to experience solid foods for the first time! They tried oatmeal, rice cereal and sweet potatoes! Still a work in progress, but they are kind of getting the hang of it!
