Christmas preparation

 We enjoyed setting up the whole house for Christmas.  Jaki put up the lights with Kip's help.  We had the tree in the front room so that little babies wouldn't hurt it.  We thought Grandma and Grandpa Spencer would enjoy a picture of their house dressed up for Christmas.

Will just loves making funny faces for the camera.  He is such a messy eater still.  Love him!!!!

 On December 23 while Addi was napping and Jaki was finishing up wrapping Christmas presents, Kip and Will took a little nap together.  Will fell asleep on the couch and then moved down to snuggle with Kip.  Zack was watching TV.

 Gotta love Zack, he wants pictures taken of him but won't smile...

We just love Addi's little noises and faces.  She loves saying 'Oooo' and has just the cutest lips!  She also says 'ow' when she pinches someone else or herself.  She is getting so close to walking but just not there yet.  She stands for long periods of time and walks all around furniture and with toys and chairs when she can.  She loves to be down and playing except, of course, when her brothers are torturing her.  She is just a happy little girl.  She is finding her voice and she lets you know when she is not happy.

 
Here is Addi playing with her toy, that we bought as her present from Grandma and Grandpa Spencer.  Now that Jane is mobile, she and Addi are starting to play very well with each other.  Above is a close up picture of just her present.  It's a cute little tea set that sings or says different things when you push the button on the teapot or pour with it.
