December is here!

Even though it is officially December now, it sure hasn't felt like it this week! The temperatures have been in the 80s most days and I am ready for some colder weather! We've had a great first week of December so far - here is some of what we've been up to:
Cooper rocked her sunglasses on the way to church Sunday. I love that little sassy girl so much! And love how she wears her glasses upside down!
 
Last Monday I started keeping a friend's little girl while she went back to teaching after maternity leave. Her name is Lily and she is 3 months old. She's just the sweetest little girl! I have really enjoyed keeping her, but my two sweet girls have loved it even more. They are absolutely obsessed with Baby Lily. When she is awake, they are all over her wanting to play with her, talk to her and read to her. When she is asleep they are constantly asking when we can go wake her up. Kendall told me tonight that she doesn't want to go to school when Lily is here because "then I think about her and I want her to be with me!" They have been super big helpers and I just love watching them with her. They are both going to be so wonderful with Calli! Here is a picture of Kendall reading a story to Cooper and Lily:
 And then a picture of getting to feed Lily her bottle. So proud!
 I caught these two in our bed watching tv last night. Cooper had just woken up from her nap, and she joined Kendall, who was already watching Rudolph. Precious girls!
 Sunday was Jillian's fifth birthday party. 5. This is crazy. Kendall will follow her in just about two months. I can't even believe these girls are getting so old! Kendall, Sarah, and Jill have been friends since all of them were born, so I love watching them grow together!
 Kendall sat with me and watched the rest of the friends hit the pinata. The only part she wanted of that was gathering up the candy at the end. :)
 And, last Friday night, our staff had our annual Christmas party! I just love our staff Christmas party so much. We love the people we work with and we love seeing what everyone comes up with to bring to the White Elephant gift exchange. Randy literally has a file on his computer that he saves ideas in all year to bring back up at the Christmas party. It's a pretty fun night and we just love laughing a lot!
We have put all our Christmas decorations up and Randy finished putting lights on the house tonight! I just love this season and we are enjoying every minute of it with these girls!
