life, everyday {week twenty seven}.

{12.18.09} friday: another christmas tree display in its cutest fashion. miley was trying on her new outfit given to her by new friends. she knew she looked cute - you could see it all over her button-nosed smile.

{12.19.09} saturday: we just love putting 'hunny' in her hats and hoodies. jessa always exclaims, "hunny, you look SO cute!!" can't get enough - just love every piece of it all.

{12.20.09} sunday: jessa girl's determination and practice makes her somersault perfection. i love the hint of joy spread across her little pleased face.

{12.21.09} monday: me. getting into the medicine cabinet for the 57th time in over a week. will it ever end? will it?

{12.22.09} tuesday: even a week after her birthday, i still can't believe she's f-i-v-e. i know, i know, it'll keep going faster and faster. i just can't wrap my brain around it though.

{12.23.09} wednesday: dear target, it broke my heart just a little bit to see your shelves so empty. it gave me a glimpse into what it would be like if you were closing and i sobbed internally for a few seconds. by the way, your crowds were way bigger today than black friday. something is very wrong with that.

{12.24.09} thursday: the 'big surprise'. i had this idea of the girls waking up christmas morning to a fully put together present {like on the movies, ya know? silly, yes}. the boys worked hard while grammy and i read directions and after about an hour, their new princess castle was fully assembled, waiting in all its pink glory in the living room. merry christmas eve!
