Santa

Today we went to see Santa. The Chocolate Factory had Rudolph, a giant bear and moose, and Santa. Mammam and Cullen joined us :) Rose loved it all except for Santa, but stopped crying for a moment when Cullen and daddy held her hand. She also loved the snow! Its a good thing because we got a ton of it this weekend. 

How many is Rose??

I keep trying with the headband, and my girl keeps telling me NO!

Loved the Moose!

Surprisingly Rose liked Rudolph, especially his nose :)

 But NOT Santa...

What a difference a year makes

Oh Christmas Time

This weekend we put up our Christmas tree. Rose helped put a few ornaments on the tree, but has really loved taking them off. I made sure to hang all of the soft unbreakable ones on the bottom.  Rose and I have enjoyed singing and dancing to Christmas music. I remember rocking with her a year ago to the same music (what a difference a year makes). Rose loves her singing Frosty and Santa and all of our decorations. When we got home today the first thing she ran to was Santa yelling and pointing Ho Ho. 

Putting the ornaments on the tree

Look at this little attitude that is unfolding. She has started throwing her head back and rolling on the floor crying and kicking when she does not get her way or is way tired. I was just telling Tracie the other day I could never see my sweet girl throw a tantrum or say anything mean to us (after a Laney tantrum story was told). I think I spoke too soon...

daddy would not let her in...

marching away oh so sad :(

Thanksgiving

This Thanksgiving we traveled to my cousin's house, Kevin's parents, and my mom's house. Rose was quite a trooper! She loved seeing and playing with everyone. She also loved her Thanksgiving meal (but this girl loves all food!) We are so lucky to be able to spend holidays with all of our family. We missed the Bathrick family and Sara and Scotch though. I especially missed spending time with my sister and shopping on Black Friday with her. 

This Thanksgiving and everyday I am so thankful for such a wonderful family, friends, and a wonderful job. I truly am so blessed to be surrounded by such amazing people especially this little girl! She makes everyday wonderful and fun!

Love her turkey dress from Miss Laney :)

Rose loves her babies!

Uncles :)

A little stranger danger from seeing Uncle Joe

So Thankful for this little laugh and smile! Her cousins had her laughing so hard and smiling like crazy!

Someone did not want to take a picture.

Oh my does this girl LOVE her poppy! She constantly whines and wiggles out of my arms and runs to him. She runs after him where ever he goes putting her arms up. She had a blast spending the week last week with poppy and grandma while daddy was away.

LOVES the slide!
