Another fun Christmas for the Clingman's! We kicked it off with a super cold photoshoot for our xmas cards. This guy wasn't having any of it. But I did get him to crack a little smile.
When I uploaded the pictures to my computer, my computer was having none of that and promptly shut itself down causing me to freak out, cry a little and panic on the phone with Apple support. Luckily they were able retrieve all my photos except this last batch since it didn't have a chance to save itself to the memory before it crashed. But the good new is I finally figured out how to use my external hard drive! yay. I grabbed these blurry out takes from the christmas card site I ordered from, luckily they had a few saved although not great quality. Oh well!
Nolan has figured out if he smiles and holds still these photoshoots go a lot faster. He hasn't shared this bit of info with Miles as he made me work for the shot we ended up using.
And a bunch of blurry excited kid pics.
Of course we finally got to share this big news with the boys. They didn't have an immediate excited reaction that we thought they would. They have built excitement as we countdown to the big day though for sure. 12 days to go!
Christmas dinner has moved to Yaya's house! We're mixing things up and now that Yaya is settled into her house we decided to meet there. A big plus for us since she is a 5 minute drive. These two little boys finally figured out they have a built in playmate cousin. It only took 4 years!! They were pretty much inseparable and played really well together. So worth the 4 years of side eyes and toy grabs.
Someone is a big Dutchy fan!!
Meanwhile the big kids practices their kick boxing outside? Whatever they were doing they had fun.
We bribed the kids with opening presents to get one good photo of all of them. This will just have to do!
Emmie insisted on matching PJs for all this year. I think they pulled it off well.
You can't see it here but Emmie has matching pjs too. I phoned it in with a matching bow. After dinner, presents, and desserts this was the best we could get everyone to cooperate. Not too bad for my squirmy guys. Nolan is obviously feeling it.
Grumpy about Christmas being over. Until next year!
