Margot is 3!

Happy Birthday to our little escargot! We had a bug party so that we could eat dirt and worms. Despite the bows and pink sweater, this one is quite the tom-boy. First she wanted a spider man party but was thrilled just to receive a spider man as a gift from Eloise and named it her favorite gift. She adored all the other loot too and had packed it all up in a new suitcase and wheeled it around all day, peaking at it periodically.

 All the incredible decorations are compliments of the party planning queen-Grandma Hagle. Thanks, it was great!!

 Holding up her #3, she's been practicing for weeks

Uncle Brian getting some action!

Happy 1st Birthday Laurel!

 We had a fun little brunch after church today to celebrate. Laurel was thrilled with all the attention and loved the cake. Alan and I really cannot even believe that she's one already!?! She is such an incredibly sweet and easy baby. Such a joy in our lives!

Our cups runneth over. 



Clapping along while we sang to her also while swaying to the tune

 

    

This is the face that she gives all strangers that say 'hello'-except with her nose squished up a bit more. They all love it and comment to me about her nose.

Daddy Daughter Date Night

 Chick Fil A hosts a Daddy Daughter Date night. Alan took a few of his ladies out along with a friend, Dave, and his daughter.

Christmas 2012

 Sorry, this is so late.....here is a quick recap of December. We went to an incredible live nativity with family and some friends. Margot still asks to talk about "Back to Bethlehem" each night as we tuck her in.

 

 

 Eloise was in the Christmas pageant at our church. She was a horse and distraught that she didn't get picked to be Mary. Here she is pictured with a friend from church that looks very much like her. Both set of parents have confused the girls multiple times.

 

 

 Margot is quite the little "mama" these days and very dedicated to her role of keeping Laurel in line.
