New robes and a special birthday

I decided to make robes for the twins.  For Lily the only possible color was purple.  Callum isn't so particular.  After the fiasco with the Halloween costumes, I wasn't sure they would even put them on.  But they met us at the car with Lily demanding "Lily's purple".  They put them on immediately right over their clothes and wore them for a good part of the day.  After playing outside we came in to watch Elmo's Christmas and I snapped this picture.  They eventually allowed me to take them off before naptime.




Today is Samantha's Birthday. I never will forget how excited we were when we received the news. Or the incredible moment when I first held her in my arms.  We love her totally.  She is having a wonderful time during her second year at the university and living in the sorority house.
