Too many happenings in December to post them separately so I decided to give a snapshot into what we were doing before Christmas... all the while having just come home from the hospital with our newest bundle.
Dilan had her dance recital where she was a candy cane and did a ballet routine to the nutcracker. She did very well and loved doing the twirls most of all!

We attended Dilan's preschool Christmas program. They gave the three year-olds party accessories to sing Jesus, "Happy Birthday!"
David's mom came to meet Dakota (also her namesake) and help us out for a week. She was essential in sitting with the kids while I took Dakota to several doctor's appointments. Mimi was also able to attend Dilan's preschool program.
I was able to attend Drew's Christmas party at school. The students are given instructions to wear their very best to school on the day of the party and Drew had no problem picking out his shirt, Christmas tie, and coat. All of the teachers and parents mentioned how nice Drew looked! I also had the pleasure of actually staying and helping with the "Jingo" table (aka Bingo) and this is Drew at my table playing the game.
Me and Drew in his classroom for the party. Drew loved his yellow Santa hat!
The month of December also included lots of pictures with the baby!
and of course, we took our annual Santa Claus picture. We waited for 45 minutes in line but it was worth it. Next year, we will go earlier but this year, we had to wait for Dakota to make her debut and meet Santa for the first time. :)
