Christmas, New Years and More


These past few weeks have been a whirlwind. Let me start from the beginning. Christmas Eve morning I went to my Grammy and Poppa's house with all my cousins, aunts and uncles on mommy's side. First, we ate a delicious breakfast (the pull apart caramel rolls were my favorite) and then Grammy, Poppa, me and all my cousins, we put on a little show for our mommies and daddies. Grammy made these fun Swedish costumes and taught us a Swedish song. We all came into the living room with our costumes on singing Go Tell it on the Mountain. Then we sand the swedish song and a couple more Christmas songs that I like. It was so fun! After our "show" we opened some presents, had some lunch and best of all, had a birthday party for Jesus. We decorated cup cakes, sang and celebrated. I was exhausted so we all took naps. I'm not quite sure what mommy and daddy did. When I woke up, we drove to my Great Aunt Susie's house where I got to see all my mommy's cousins and my second cousins. We got to go sledding, run around their big house, eat beef tenderloin (who knew it was sooooo good - I ate all of mine and ALL of mommy's) and see Santa. After that, I went home. Wow what a day!



Christmas Day I went to Nonny and Boppy's house with my Great Grandpa John and my Great Grandma Gigi and Auntie Jess. I got to eat another delicious brunch and open more presents. Guess what I got....I got an art easel! I LOVE LOVE LOVE it!!! I can't get enough of it. I also got a doll where I can play with her hair from my Auntie Jessie AND I got a beautiful crib for my dolls from my Great Aunt Nancy!! I took a nap at Nonny's house and got to spend the whole day there. We ate dinner there (more beef...mmmm good) and played with my easel. Boppy sure knows how to draw lots of silly faces!! He's funny!!





For New Years I had a lot of friends over. Mommy's still stuck on that couch (I can't wait until she gets to get up and finally play with me) so people come to our house a lot to play. It's hard sharing all my toys but I'm starting to get used to it. I couldn't stay up late like mommy and daddy but I did get to have a sleep over. My friend Bella slept on the floor in my room in her new sleeping bag. It was so much fun!



Since then, I've been busy back at "school," going to gymnastics class, and playing with daddy (he taught me a fun new card game called slap jack - I'm really good at hitting those jacks - I almost always beat daddy). My brother is doing a good job of obeying mommy and staying inside her tummy. I can't wait to meet him!
