This is Alex and my niece Mariah with their princess lightsavers (oops, I mean wands). They were playing with them in a sweet girlie way and then all of a sudden we heard the clash of plastic and it looked like a scene from Star Wars with Luke and Darth Vader. Thank you Grandpa Jim for the cute Reindeer Antlers.
We always have Christmas eve with my side of the family in Willard. We have a lot of little ones the same age. Here are a few cuties singing "Twinkle Twinkle " and just oozing adorableness.
She had a ball opening all the presents and as she opened them she would keep them with her while opening the next one. Once she got the backpack she didn't want to take it off. She would put everything in it.
Mommy got Daddy a new keyboard for Christmas and can I say our girl is loving it. She was singing with her new microphone and playing. She was cracking us up. I think Carrie Underwood better look out.
After everyone left, Alex had a bath with her new bath toys, had some milk and cookies and fell asleep on her daddy. What a day!!!
Alex and Mommy built her first snowman a few weeks ago when we had a big snow. She loved it -- she kept saying "no Mommy no" . I thought she was actually saying no so I kept saying yes Alex yes but she was really saying snow. It takes me awhile sometimes but I eventually catch on. Just look at that face below so full of intent and concentration trying to get that snow in just the right spot. We had so much fun.
We took Alex to her yearly Santa visit. She had been saying she would sit on his lap when you asked her. But............ as you can see it wasn't happening. Oh well. Santa was a good sport.
Aunt Suzy came last weekend and brought Alex this new kitchen. She loves it and calls it her house. As you can see she has her Burger King Princess hat on and her Chef hat on. She makes food for everyone and it is delicious.
We took Alex to the zoo the other night. She loved all the lights. She loved the baby elephant, Bodie. We waved to Santa but didn't sit on his lap. Maybe next year.
