Santa Claus?


Let me tell you about our trip to see Santa Claus. We have never taken the girls to see him before. We have a friend that always dresses as one at a Christmas party, but other than that, Olivia has never really seen him. I saw that Santa at the mall and thought that he looked pretty good. So after our Christmas pictures on our way out Pat and I decided to let the girls see him and pay the crazy amout of money to get their picture taken with him. First, we walk up and notice that the Santa has a lazy eye, if you look close you can see that his eyes both go different directions. Next, Olivia is just at thr start of the red carpet and just starts crying and grabbing at me. Then I sit her on his lap and she calms down but she wont look at him and will not smile. Next is Danicas turn. She is quit at first then we put her on his lap and she just curls into this ball and just starts screaming bloody murder. Her face is so red and white she is scrunching it so had. Pat and I of course are just laghing our asses off. The lady takes the pictures and asks if we want to see it, and I tell her no because it doesnt matter and it is not going to get better. We take the girls off of hus lap and amazingly enough, they are both better. Carzy! So, we wait to get in the car before we look at the picture, and OMG we both bust up laghing harder than I think we ever have before. It is the perfect first picture of the girls with Santa!

Family Pictures!


It is finally time for family pictures. It is always such an ordeal. We get the girls there and they look cute, the the lady has to take a phone call that takes 10 minutes. By the time she gets back Danica has torn her head band out and Olivia is trying to strangle Danica. You would think that it would get easier as they get older but it doesnt. But we did get some great pictures!

Sisters!


These pictures were taken a while ago, and finally made it to the blog. My girls are so cute together. Their new thing is that they always have to hold each others hand. Even when we just get out of the car, Danica walks over and waits for Olivia to get out of the car to hold her hand. Danica is such a good little sister. It is like she already knows that her big sister needs her help and she is there for her. She is always looking out for Olivia. She brings Olivia her sippy when she cant get up to get it, she shares her food with her, and after we drop Olivia off at school, Danica runs around the house yelling sissy, sissy. I could not have been blessed with two cuter kids!

Fun in the tub!

Last night was bath time in the Spencer household. It is the girls favorite time. When I give them a bath it is always just in and out, but when dad gives thema bath, it is every wall, everybody get wet kind of thing. They have such a good time, and they both love to fight over who gets to hold the shower head!

St. George




A couple of weeks ago the girls and I went to Grandma and Grandpas house in St George and had such a blast. We went to the park and they had the coolest play ground. Danica didnt even want to wait for help to go up and down the slide, she just did it all on her own. Olivia was a little unsure at first, but then she decided that she loved it. The was a couple of times that the girls were fighting to get up the steps first and Danica cheated by pulling on sisters shirt to get ahead of her. They are so cute. The park also had a little man made creek. The water was a little chilly but it was 75 degrees outside so they didnt notice. We tried to roll up their pants so that they wouldnt get all wet and as you can see, the was pointless, they both got drenched. It was well worth it, they had much fun, and I think that grandma and grandpa had as much fun as they did. After the creek, we stripped the girls down to nothing to dry out and had some lunch. Right now Olivia is all about her nipples, she just cant get enough of them. Danica is all about the peepee. She tried to feed it a cheeto and totally grossed my dad out. But she thinks that whatever she likes, her peepee will like. Hopefully these are both just a faze.
