Just 17 days 'til Christmas and we can't hardly wait! Madison and Breanne are counting the days until Santa comes. We've heard an assortment of stories about Santa this year and yet Derrick and I have never even mentioned Santa. Breanne started it shortly before Thanksgiving, "Santa's going to bring me presents." Some of Madison's friends saw Santa at Walmart over Thanksgiving weekend. I asked Madison what Santa was doing there, "He's probably just buying presents for some kids." When Breanne found the stocking in the Christmas boxes, she said, "Mom! Look! Santa's boots!" A bit later, Madison tried on "Santa's boots." Breanne says "Santa's going to put candy in my stocking."
The girls were so very excited to wear their Christmas dresses, I had to let them wear them early. They are quite cute and it gave us a chan
ce to take some Christmas pictures.
ce to take some Christmas pictures.Right before Thanksgiving, Breanne got her hair cut again. She likes going with me to get her hair cut and she gets a sucker when she's finished...who wouldn't be happy about that. She and Madison helped Derrick bake crescent rolls for our Thanksgiving dinner.
Last week was busy with doctor's appointments for both Madison and Aliya. Madison had a check up with her orthopedic specialist in regards to her arm. Dr. Lewallen had her arm x-rayed said her arm is totally healed and the plate is now ready to be removed. Surgery is scheduled for December 31st. Madison is a brave little girl and isn't concerned at all about the surgery. They will remove the screws and plate from the bone and then she will have to wear a brace and take it easy.

Aliya's two-month appointment was uneventful. Her pediatrician was pleased with her weight gain and development. She weighs 12 pounds and is 23 1/2 inches long. This puts her in the 75th percentile for weight and 90th percentile for length. She continues to be a pleasant, sweet little baby. Very kissable and huggable! She can't wait to meet her grandpas for the first time in just a week and a half! Until then....enjoy her picture!
