December Happenings

We have a had busy December as I'm sure everyone else has to. I love this time of year from music, Christmas lights, Christmas parties to the spirit that is around. I'm grateful for the birth of my saviour and for his greatest gift to us. At our house we are especially grateful this year to be able to spend Christmas at our very own house.

Some of the things we have been up this month are : Christmas parties where Olivia was able to be an Angel in the nativity scene, going and seeing the little houses at Christmas Village and making sugar cookies at Grandma Call's house. She had a blast all the things we have done especially making cookies. She sat at the table for a few hours rolling the dough then using the cookie cutter and then rolling it out again. I'm fairly sure that there wouldn't have been any cookies left if it wasn't for me and grandma actually making some.

Over the past month Olivia has grown so much! She is talking like crazy and for the most part it is somewhat understandable. She is a little stink though and likes to tell me to stop if she doesn't like what I'm saying or doing and that I'm naughty. Some of the things that she has really been into lately are

1. horses

2. silly banz

3. care bear the movie

4. nail polish (loves getting her nails done, and when they start to come off she looks at them, gasps and then says "my nails" all sad.

5. jewelry

6. wearing pretty dresses and swirling in them

7. snacks (she doesn't want dinner or lunch, she wants a snack)

I took these pictures of her the other day and her personality totally came out in them, She is such a cheese ball yet sweet and fiery. I can't believe she is getting so big so fast!
