More pics from Christmas and our fun stop on the way home

Santa brought me my own chair!  I love sitting in it, especially putting my feet up to relax.

Grams, Grandpa Dewitt, and Aunt Whitney gave me lots of great gifts too. Fun toys, cute clothes, and books. Aunt Whitney gave me The Elf on the Shelf.

On our drive back home yesterday, we stopped in Greensboro NC, to visit with Uncle Matt, Aunt Ashley, and my cousins Olivia, Nicholas, and Jake. It came at the perfect time because I wanted out of the car! It was so much fun to play with my cousins.

When we got home last night there were more boxes of gifts for me too. It made it exciting this morning to wake up and open my gifts. Thank you to my Great Aunt Cindy and Great Uncle Brian, to my Aunt Trisha, my Grandma and Grandpa Winton, and my cousin Olivia.

Merry Christmas

Merry Christmas!! I can't wait to go downstairs and open up gifts!





Christmas in South Carolina

We are in South Carolina to celebrate Christmas. Daddy said it doesn't seem like its Christmas because its 65 degrees down here. I guess being from up north he got used to it being nice and cold this time of year.  I have opened up one gift down here already- auntie J-Clo gave me a cute reindeer blanket and some christmas socks. Mommy's friends are so nice to me.

Yesterday morning when daddy was getting ready to go for a run, he let me wear his hat- how cute am I?!

It's past my bedtime, I'm tired, but I'm having too much fun with mommy

Christmas has come early

Grandpa and Grandma Winton sent me gifts for Christmas earlier this week and I've been opening up one a night since we will be celebrating Christmas down south. It is so much fun ripping the paper and eating the bows! I love the gifts I've opened so far. Fun toys that make lots of sounds and have a lot of lights, and some really cute clothes. I can't wait to see what else I have to open. Thank you grandpa and grandma.

7 Months Old

I am 7 months old today, and I'm a very active little girl. I love rolling around on the floor, especially now that there is a christmas tree that I can roll over to and pull the ornaments off of. I also love my activity bouncer- its so much fun to hang out in and jump up and down. I still like to put everything in my mouth too.

SANTA !!!!!!

This morning it was breakfast with Santa. We met up with my Great-aunt Marty and Piper to head over to Marty's church for breakfast with Santa. When it came time to get our picture taken, Piper didn't want to get to close to Santa. I guess she is still unsure of him. Me, I just wanted to check out his beard- I didn't want to let go of it. Santa did say that I did the best out of anyone in my age group.

We had a great visit with Marty and Piper, and Piper was so good with me. She wanted to hold my hand when I was hanging out in the stroller, and she really liked helping push me around in the stroller. I can't wait to have another play date with her.

Our first family Christmas tree, and my own pink tree

This past weekend we went out and picked out our first family christmas tree. By Saturday night, it was all set up with lights and ornaments. Mommy and daddy both have a nice collection of ornaments.

The ornaments are fun to grab, but they don't taste good. Mommy said the gingerbread ornament was almost twenty years old and it sure tasted that way.

I also have my own pink Christmas tree in my room that mommy set up. Daddy thinks its a little outrageous- "Trees should be green", he says. Since I haven't started talking yet,  I can't tell him whether I agree with him or not.

I finally did it!!

I finally figured out how to roll over from my back to my stomach and now I'm a rolling machine. I like this so much I can't stop rolling- I'm rolling across the room!

Mommy wanted this video up because Mr. Snail is happy for me too.



My baptism

While up in New Hampshire for Thanksgiving, mommy and daddy had me baptized on Sunday morning. It was done at the church that daddy grew up going to, and Grandpa and Grandma Winton still go to. Grandpa Dewitt, Grams, and Aunt Whitney flew up from South Carolina with Aunt Whitney serving as my sponsor for the baptism. It meant a lot to mommy and daddy to have family and friends there- Aunt Trisha, Aunt Kara and Uncle Paul and cousin Emma, Abbey and RJ and Olivia, Amy and JJ and Olivia, and Tom and Mary Mihalek who drove over two hours to be there!

What a Thanksgiving!

Last Wednesday we flew up to New Hampshire to have Thanksgiving with daddy's family. The entire family was there- all 18 of us! It was so much fun to see everyone and spend time with all my cousins. I can't wait until the next time we all get together.

The cousins! (Emma, Olivia, Jake, Lily, me, Sadie, and Nicholas)
