You Are Never Going To Believe This......

ADDISON WENT TO SEE SANTA!!!

Addison had a haircut this morning and I wanted Molly to be able to see Santa. Addison has always been terrified of Santa. As we waited, Addison sucked her thumb and was very nervous. The plan was to have her watch Molly see Santa off to the side. But as we got closer she said I think I will talk to him. As you can see from the pictures, she didn't sit too close. Molly was not a fan....maybe next year (hopefully not in 4 years like it took her Big Sis!).

Thinking maybe he is not so bad!

She asked for Barbies and Dolls

Why am I sitting with this strange man?!

Stuck

Molly was determined to sit in this doll stroller.

She had a hard time getting out of it and me being mom of the year, I took her picture before I helped her! :)

Cousin Sleep Over

Ali and Reid came to visit last weekend. Addison was excited to have a sleep over with Reid.

Cousins

Sisters

My Girls

Look What Came In The Mail Yesterday!

Kindergarten Registration Information!

Big Girl!
Before I know it, she will be getting college letters!

Princesses Live

Yesterday Addison and I had a date with Kristin and Olivia. We went to see Princesses Live. It had the stories of Cinderella, Snow White and Beauty and the Beast. The girls had fun and each got a $10.00 cotton candy with these crowns!

Thanks for a fun afternoon Stenzel girls!

Addio's Tree

When Addison was a baby, Aunt Debbie bought her a Christmas tree for her room. She wanted it in her room again this year (after a two year hiatus).

Pie Party

We had a successful 6th Annual Pie and Wine Party. Addison looks forward to the pie party for many reasons-getting to see her friends, eating pie and wearing her Christmas dress for the first time.

Addison chose matching Christmas dresses for her and Molly this year.
Christmas Dress!

Smooshy Face

Molly was walking around with an ornament holder and smooshing her face. Too cute!

Thanks, Aunt Debbie

Aunt Debbie got a new table for the girls for Christmas. It is so sweet and cute. Molly loves it! She has already mastered climbing onto the chairs and then onto the table!

Thanks, Aunt Debbie, we love it!

Happy Birthday Great Grandma Hill

Happy Birthday, Great Grandma!

We love you and can't wait to see you soon!

Where Does She Come Up With This Stuff?!

Addison LOVES to take pictures of herself with the camera. In this photo shoot she took the camera into our closet and pretended there was a monster in there with her. This is what she came up with!

My favorite.....makes me laugh everytime!
Show that monster your gnarly teeth!

Sick

Our poor little Molly was sick last weekend. Fever and spitting up. It was a rough 4 days for her. But luckily, she is back to her on the go self!

Still smiling although she feels terrible.

Here she is this weekend!

She thought she was hot stuff with this hair pretty. I put it in her hair and she immediately ran to show Addison.

Happy Birthday Great Grandad Hill

Happy Birthday! We love you!

OXOXOXOXOXOXO

38 Days

Addison has been anxious to go to England since August. Now that it is getting closer we made a paper chain to help her see how many more days it is until we go. In 38 days we will be boarding a plane!

Rock Star

Addison got a new Barbie guitar and of course, Molly had to try it. Here is our little rock star!

Mommy and Molly

Really she loves me!

Look at that smirk!

Our First Baby

I often wonder how we got so lucky with Holly. She is so good with Addison and Molly. Molly and her are becoming good buds.

Halloween

We had a fun filled Halloween this year. Addison loved running from house to house getting candy. Molly got to go along for the ride but didn't do any trick or treating. I am sure next year will be her year.

Suckers from the loot

(don't worry mom, this was only for the photo op).

One Tough Cookie

First off, I can't belive how big Molly looks in her winter coat (that we had to pull out this week).

This little girl never seizes to amaze me. From about 4 months old, I felt that something was not right with Molly. First, it was the milk protein sensitivity. Then it was maybe Celiac but we aren't sure-we will know when she is two. This little bug has had 5 ear infections in her short 14 months. She still is not sleeping and every night I am convinced something is wrong. Well this week we had a break through and I think we may be getting closer to an answer. My daycare lady and her husband found a common hernia. I was hopeful that this was it, this is what has been causing my little girl all that pain. Unfortunatly, her surgeon said it wouldn't cause that much pain but he seems to think that it could be acid reflux. Thankfully he made some calls and she will see a GI specialist sooner than her December 12th appointment because they will do and endoscopy at the same time of her hernia surgery. Her surgery will hopefully be in 2-3 weeks. She will have a 4-5 day recovery time.

I just pray that this is it, we get our answers and help Molly to feel better!

Jack o Lantern

This girl is a hoot!
