Merry Merry 2012

Having fun at Papa and Gig's place! Little one had a fun Christmas and loved opening gifts this year, even more than last year.  More pics to come on that.

Christmas Photo Dump

Christmas time is in full force and we are soaking it up! We even got to go see the Nutcracker with Gammy and her cousin.

Baking, decorating and tasting Christmas cookies.  Note to self, flour and a toddler is a messy combination!

Visiting the Trains at Northpark

Giving me some sass!

Storytime with Santa

Putting on her Christmas dress to go see the jolly ol' Santa Claus.  Despite how cute the crying pics are with Santa, she did great and sat and chatted with him for quite a bit.  She even gave Santa the gig'em sign out of the blue...promise I did not provoke her.  He did it right back and claimed he is a HUGE AGGIE FAN! Who knew! ;)

MMmmm Cookies

We went to see our sweet little cousin sing at her annual Christmas program and visit with Santa.  They both did great with Santa this year and even gave Santa her two cents on what she wants for Christmas.  She was pumped.  I think her favorite part was decorating the SUGAR cookies.  Her sweet tooth was in candy land HEAVEN!!!!

Loving on her uncle who showed her how to triple dip her cookie into icing and toppings.  That's what uncles are for.  I guess it is payback for when we let her cousin drink a bunch of Sunkist from a 2 liter bottle when she was little =)

Double Trouble

Mrs. Holly

So I caved into the whole Elf of the Shelf deal. I am glad I did as C is having fun looking for her in the morning. Mrs. Holly happened to be relaxing on the piano chilling in one of her dolls' chairs.  She thought it was pretty funny and decided to play her some self-written tunes.  I tried to stand there and dance around with her...she quickly told me to leave.  She was playing for Mrs. Holly and not mommy.  Geeze! Plus Mrs. Holly is a good behave yourself because Santa is watching tact =)

Thanksgiving Weekend

Thought it was about time to catch up on what has been going on around here lately.  Little one has been super funny and quite the comedian.  She loves to take the stage and put on an 'act,' of cute craziness! She has us rolling on the floor at least once a day.

 She is a very dramatic shiverer (yes I made up that word)

Helping Gigi peel potatoes for Thanksgiving.

Making gravy with Abuelita

Chilling with Duane

She would not sit still for dinner but would hang out with Papa and eat his food.

Our after dinner entertainment.  She put on quite a show. 

Pretending she has a baby in her belly like our friends Mrs. Michelle when she carries little man in the Bjorn.

We came so close to getting a guinea pig this weekend.  Papa tried his hardest to convince me.  She even named her Lambie (A Doc McStuffins reference).  She loved holding her.

Partying in the leaves

Blast Off!

We went to play with our Aggie friend the other day and got to play on a super cool playground. The top of the shuttle is pretty high up there and made me a tad nervous! Sweet girl loved it and even sat in the astronaut seat that overhung on the edge. Yikes!
