Liam and Maia were pretending to be ninjas. We managed to catch them in this one picture.
A selfie with Maia.
Liam and Maia love hanging out together (most of the time).
The annual decorating of the tree. This time most of the ornaments were pretty well distributed instead of ending up on one branch.
Though we did have to encourage Maia to try for different branches.
We even had help from the Ramsdells.
After the arduous work of hanging ornaments, Anastasia kicks back with her knitting (which I taught her, I am proud to say).
One of the kids' favorite spots is in our bed. They love getting under the sheets.
They also love it when we treat them with a movie in bed.
Maia insisted that she was one of Santa's elves. Apparently they wear pants on their heads.
Yearly visit from Santa on the fire truck.
Liam and Willa did their Christmas exchange at the skating center.
Afterwards there was playing out in the yard (yes, it was actually warm enough to play in December, though I did have to yell at Liam to put his jacket back on).
Maia is a cutey, even when she gets angry. Here, she is upset at us and after finishing crying, she is hiding in anger behind a pillow. Hey, whatever works...it kept her out of our hair for a few minutes.
Then Liam calmed her down more by reading her a book. Ah, big brothers to the rescue.
Christmas Eve morning, Liam wasn't feeling so hot. We were worried he would throw up and have to miss the holiday festivities that evening. Maia kept him company on the couch while watching TV.
Luckily he felt better by noon.
