Post Christmas

 The day after Christmas, the Hansen side of the family came down to see us in Arizona since we couldn't make it to Utah. 

 As always, there were amazing dinners (this one of locally raised food).

 Mustache time.

Cousin Ellie's newborn outfit borrowed just for a picture.

Still can't tell what color Clara's eyes are.

And we made it to the new year!  Our family is complete with the newest addition and we are excited to think about what this year will bring.  Ada is talking and talking and talking now.  She was starting to act out a little from the lack of attention from us, but we are all finally finding a balance.  She is so smart and funny and still one of the happiest kids we know.  She has another eye surgery coming up in March, but it is nothing we will worry about right now.  She is still having fun at "school" and talks about her friends and teachers there.   
Clara is rapidly gaining weight- I still feel like I'm feeding her all the time and we think she might soon catch up with her big sister!  She is smiling at us as soon as we walk into the room and we think we may have even heard a laugh!  I forgot how much fun this stage is. 
Bryan and I are still not getting enough sleep, but as it was pointed out to us, we don't expect it for the next 18 years or so.  Everyone is slowly adjusting to the new dynamic, so it's only getting better!
