Merry Christmas

It seems like there is always a lot going on in December, but this year has been especially fun to watch Addie's reaction to all of the Christmas festivities. She has loved having the tree up in the house and she knows what Santa looks like and that he says "Ho Ho Ho!" We had our ward Christmas party this weekend and it was the first time Addie got to sit on Santa's lap. Of course sitting on some strangers lap that has a big white beard was not to her liking. So Addie got to sit on Mama's lap while Mama sat on Santa's lap. I would have to say I cannot remember the last time I actually sat on Santa's lap. I was worried I was going to crush him. Fortunately, he was a pretty sturdy guy. Addie began to warm up to Santa when he handed her a candy cane, but only a little bit.




It has been snowing quite a bit lately too so it was fun to get all bundled up and go out and play in the snow. Addie thought it was quite fun to make tracks in the snow, but besides that she didn't know what to do. Since the snow was to flaky to make a snowman, Addie took advantage of the fact that she was outside and went to the snow covered park to play.


So yesterday morning I got Addie all ready for the day and then I went to get ready myself. Well by the time I came out of the shower (which was probably only 8-10 minutes) Addie was fast asleep curled up on the toilet. Luckily I had the camera near by so I was able to get this picture.

We made our first fort this morning. Addie thought it was the neatest thing. So we brought all of her stuffed friends in to share in the fun too.


We hope everyone is having a just as much fun this holiday season as we are!
