Christmas party at the Gallinger's

Our friends Megan and Jeff (MEFF) had a Christmas party on the 13th of December. We had a fabulous time and Eleanor enjoyed her first Christmas party too! She was a very good girl. Our friend Megan shot some lovely photos of us at the party. I thought I would share them with you all. We wore red to celebrate the season...YAHOOO! Merry Christmas!

Twins

Daddy and Eleanor are twins. Even though Eleanor is a girl, we had to buy her a pair of camo pants so she and Daddy could be dressed alike. I threw in the pink shoes and shirt so people would know she is a girl :)

Let it snow...

Rudy was brave and went out on the lawn where the
snow was deep.

Charlie is a chicken, she stay where the snow was

shallow.

Yes, good old Salem Oregon received snow last night. Some say we got 3 inches and others say we got 4 inches...all I know is school was closed so I got to stay home in my PJ's. Dustin was scheduled off today so it is great being home snuggled by the fireplace with the family. Eleanor is napping right now but we plan to bundle her up and take her out in the snow. We will take pictures so stay posted....

Grabbin feet

Eleanor doing what she does best...grabbing feet. I wish I could still do that!

5 months and 2nd tooth

Trying to roll over

Tooth number 2 shows up

Eleanor turned 5 months on the 6th! She is holding her head up now and grabbing things and letting go too. She has now started to get tooth number 2 in on the bottom. She is fussy alot now since she is teething. I think we have about 10 teething toys to try and distract her. Dustin and I are working hard to try and get her to roll over. She is so close. She kind of sits up on her own, only for like 5 seconds and then she falls to the side. She is great at smiling and giggling. She is so much fun!
