Merry Christmas

Merry Christmas from the Witmans! The girls were able to see Santa while we were in Seattle for their Birthdays. Lily turned 4 and Layla turned 2 years old! They look so big on Santa's lap. Layla did very well with Santa, we weren't sure if she would cry or refuse to sit on his lap! Lily asked for several things this year, but the funniest one was she ask for a new Ken doll. Not like the one she plays with now that was Mommy's when I was little, with a leg that falls off!

Merry Christmas from San Diego...guess we will be in Seattle next year!

Lily at Gymnastics

Lily has really been enjoying her gymnastics class. She walks on the beam, climbs the rock wall, jumps over the pumel horse and much more!

Lily's First Soccer Game

Lily missed the team's first game because we were visiting Grandma and Grandpa Witman in Florida. So, our first game was The Kixie Chicks second game. Lily got to kick the opening ball. She had a great time warming-up with Daddy before the game started. She was a little scared this game and need Daddy to hold her hand for awhile.

Lily Mae at Soccer Practice

Lily has joined a 3&4 year old soccer team! Her Daddy is now officially Coach Tom or Coach Daddy to Lily. There are 5 girls on her team, The Kixie Chicks. Here are some pictures from one of her first practices. Assistant Coach Mark ran the practice since Coach Tom was out of town.

Christmas in Oceanside

Our Christmas at home this year. After presents we took a walk and tried out the new wagon, soccer balls, and electric car!

Vroom! Happy Holidays everybody!

Dad Life

Yeah...it's the Dad Life, that's what it's all about!!!

Christmas Eve and Christmas Day 2009

Still getting caught up on old posts. I'm up to Christmas Eve and Christmas Day 2009. Layla was barely 3 weeks old and Lily had just turned 2 years old. We spent a very calm Christmas Eve at some friend's home, and Christmas Day at home and around Oceanside. I was still recovering from my C-Section and getting the hang of nursing Layla while still tending to Lily. Lily had recently gotten into watching Dora the Explorer show and Santa Claus brought several Dora presents to Lily Mae that year. Poor Layla really didn't understand Christmas or for that matter that she was even born! She was so little (wearing premie clothes) and quite that we still felt like we only had one kid that Christmas morning! Lily decided to take her time opening her gifts. She would sit and play with each one for quite some time. In fact, she opened her presents SO SLOW, that we had to take a break to eat breakfast. After several hours for unwrapping gifts, we headed down to the Oceanside Harbor so Tommy could do a little Christmas Day Surfing. We ended the day with Lily watching a new movie curled up on her new Dora couch/recliner.
