Opening Presents!

The Caterpillar Light & Sound Bulldozer was on my "list" so I was really excited when I got to open it. I patiently waited as Aunt Cora and Uncle Jim opened it!




When there wasn't a present for me I helped everyone open their gifts. Ooh looks like Grandma got some PJ's!

Gang is all here

Here is the whole crew - Daddy, Uncle Jim, Cora, Grandma, and Grandpa all in front of the Chirstmas Tree at Union Station!

Santa came to my house!

I guess I was on the "nice" list because Santa definitely came to my house this year! He brought along with him Bob the Builder, Thomas the Train, and so many fun toys that kept me busy all day long!

Merry Christmas!

Merry Christmas from Washington DC! We are having a great Christmas so far. It has been sunny and warm and we have already started opening my gifts:) My Grandma and Grandpa are here from Georgia and my Aunt Cora and Uncle Jim are arriving soon from Wisconsin.

More dancing!

I like to dance and when we go to Mattoon there is always dancing! Even Prince the dog dances! I like when we all hold hands and dance in a circle the best, but sometimes I do my own thing:) And sometimes I just like to go freestyle as you can see from this picture of me!

Things that go!

The Wattles family gave me a book called Things That Go and I carry it around with me and make everyone read it to me. This is my favorite book ever! It is really big and it has so many things that go really fast! Better watch out because if you come over I will make you read it to me too!

Present Dance

Kari, Kirsti, ,me and this penguin danced around the presents as we guessed what we might get. This penguin was crazy and kind of scared me. My cousins are really good dancers - I am learning so many moves from them!

Opening Presents!

Now comes to the best part - opening the presents! My first present was a John Deere Tractor. Uncle Scott was opening it for me and it felt like forever. I just couldn't wait to get my hands on it to play. I carry it everywhere I go!

Christmas in Mattoon

We went to Mattoon, Il to celebrate and early Christmas! And wow did we have a great time. Not only did I get to play with my cousins and all their toys, but I got to open new toys just for me. I think I am going to really like Christmas. I get to visit everyone and open gifts! I can't wait to tell you what I got so stay tuned!

Family

Here we are and I finally sat still for one picture with Aunt Sonja, Cousins Kari and Kirsti, Bestefar, and Mommy. Uncle Scott took the picture and then had to leave to be Elvis:)

Yard Work

I wanted to do some yard work today before winter comes. I love mowing the grass, raking the leaves,and digging in the dirt.

Afternoon at the park

Today was a really nice fall day so I put on my jogging suit and went to the park. I ran around and played in the leaves. Here I am waving and saying bye bye to my mommy as I am about to run off across the park and watch her chase me. Now that is fun!
