Having fun with Elliot



Where do I start, she is so much fun. We absolutely love being able to have her come to our house or go to their house to play with her. She loves singing, counting, reading, .... and is such a smart little girl. She and Pops snuggling is my FAVORITE!! They are so cute together.

Ringing in the New Year and things in between



Elliot decided that snowballs weren't that bad. She didn't even think they were too "brrr cold":
She is still not really fond of playing in the snow, but LOVES "noman" (snowman)!!!Pretty girl Christmas morning. She had already seen her Santa gifts at home and been to Bunny's house for more presents and breakfast!! She fell asleep on the way to our house, but once she realized there were so many people and more presents, she wanted to be part of the party. We let her open gifts first, thinking she might go down afterwards, but we were wrong!!! She wanted to continue to be part of the action. Each thing she opened was her new 'favorite'.
We had a great time having everyone around for the Holidays. The kids got to stay about 2 weeks which was wonderful!! PJ worked Christmas day so he missed the photo ops:( He came when he got off, in time for games, but no pictures of that.




Elliot enjoyed cooking with Nonni and Ashlan. She is really good at cracking eggs. Curtis Stone would be proud of her one handed go at it, without eggshell ending up in the bowl most attempts:) She and Uncle Bryee spread icing on her gingerbread cupcakes, but we didn't get a good picture of that.



She liked playing with her aunts and uncles too. She is really particular about getting the stickers right on the tip of your nose, or lobe of your ear:)

Christmas day the cousins came over, except for Joshy, and they all really enjoyed catching up with each other. It's strange that they are all adults now, working and/or trying to find careers.




Here's our girl ringing in the new year. It was about 10:00 but she got after the pots and pans in her dainty little way:

HAPPY NEW YEAR!!!!!!! Have a blessed 2010.
