not a morning person

• Lila, you are not a morning person.  You never have been and I'm pretty sure you never will be. 
• George, you woke up with the grandma flu this morning.  You were so sad and only wanted your daddy.  Mommy just didn't cut it this time.  You recovered quite quickly though and were back to your loud, crazy, funny little self by dinner time
• Auntie Shari was brave enough to play Monopoly with you guys again.  She's a glutton for punishment
• I took portraits of auntie Jenny today.  Wow.  What a beautiful woman.  As I was setting up, George and Lila, you insisted on helping me and posing for some photos.  It was so funny though because George, you looked so grumpy about it, but you were the one who volunteered
• We celebrated Christmas tonight.  As usual, grandma spoiled you and you each got a beautiful outfit and a few special things
• Every night we're at grandma's, me, auntie Jenny, auntie Shari and grandma stay up into the wee hours of the morning and drink wine and eat all kinds of snacks and talk and laugh.  It's so fun for me.  Daddy usually goes to bed much earlier than me...which is probably a good thing because he also gets up the next day with the babies.  It's win-win for me
