At Christmas last year, I was 20 weeks pregnant with June and Jude. At that time, I couldn't believe that by Christmas 2011, we would have two 7-month old munchkins crawling around. Well the time came and they were definitely into everything. As expected, they loved the wrapping paper/boxes/bags more often than the actual gifts. For this very reason, John and I really didn't get them too much for this Christmas. So many people were more than generous though, so June and Jude got plenty of cool, new toys to play with. The babies got their 2nd cold at Christmas as well which was/is a bummer (they're still not over it) since they had one at Thanksgiving too. We had Christmas with my dad's side of the family, my mom's side of the family, my immediate family, and then just us, so here are a few pictures of all the festivities. Unfortunately, I didn't get as many pictures of all the get-togethers as I would like, so if any of you have pictures, feel free to send them my way!
Babies on the prowl. It's obvious June is starting to outgrow her 12-month old clothes!
John's chosen pose for a picture
Smith Family picture (babies were exhausted, so we'd already left :( )

Looking a little rough on Christmas morning, but we had to see what Santa brought!!
Yes, I wore that...Mom surpassed herself this year with the ugly pajamas :)
Beautiful cardinal outside on Christmas morning
Schwind Family at church on Christmas. I look weird because I am holding pacifiers I just yanked out of their mouth behind my back. lol.
Almost too much cuteness for one picture! Jude's hat was a big hit among the men folks at church.
Posing at their Great-Great-Grandma's house for Christmas lunch
J&J's 1st Christmas hats...Too small to go on their heads, so I took a picture of them on the mantle :)
Hope everyone had a great Christmas!
