Our First Christmas with Grace and Hope

Merry Christmas 2008

For those of you that read this blog often, I tried to do a whole 12 Days of Christmas thing sharing life lessons I've learned from being home with the girls. If I've learned one lesson being on "Daddy Leave," it is probably this- taking care of twins is a lot of fun and a lot of work and the girls come first. Unfortunately, my fun idea quickly went the way of the dodo.

However, I couldn't help but posting some pictures of family fun from our first Christmas. I think the joy and love in the pics and videos speaks for itself and showcases how blessed we are, as a family, to have one another this holiday season.

Mommy and Hope open up a a gift from Uncle Steve and Aunt Cindy on Christmas morning.

Gracie thought the wrapping paper was tasty.
