2nd Day of Christmas

Friday, December 14, 2007
On the 2nd Day of Christmas, our secret elf gave us a gingerbread house kit and a book, called Gingerbread Baby. We had a great time putting the house together, Bella's favorite part was the eyes Daddy put on the little man in front. She calls them googgly eyes!

12 Days of Christmas 1st Day

Thursday, December 13, 2007



Someone left a big box of presents on our doorstep tonight, one for each day of the 12 days of Christmas. We have an idea who it is, but are going to keep guessing. Isabelle wouldn't wait to get her clothes on to look at our first surprise! It was yummy popcorn balls and a little nativity.

Preschool Program

Wednesday, December 12, 2007



We had our preschool program yesterday. These pictures that look like she isn't having fun, that is pretty much what she did the entire time. She perked up for her reindeeer antlers and to sing Rudolph, tolerated the sunglasses, but beyond that, not much else ws going on. She sang, but just was not into it. She kept asking if we were done yet and could go to dinner. She had chosen to go to dinner at Iggy's. It is her favorite place because she can get a pink sparkly drink. We went to dinner, but all she wanted to do was snuggle Mom. That should have been a clue that something was wrong. We made it home and she threw up! At least it wasn't at the restuarant or in the car!

Don't Worry Momma!

Tuesday, December 11, 2007
I had a dentist appointment today, so Jen offered to watch Bella for me. She was so excited to play with Jake and Abe. As I dropped her off she said "Don't worry about me Momma, I'll be having fun!"

Little Ballerina

Sunday, December 9, 2007


Bella had her first dance performance on Friday night. It was quite the show. She has been so excited about this for so long, and she loved every mionute of being on the stage. She has the bug and can't get enough of being in front of people! Thanks to everyone who came and watched her, you really went above and beyond the call of duty! (Especially you uncles who had to sit through it, I hope the tapping grannies made it worth it!)

Gingerbread Cookies



Bella has had it in her head that she wanted to make gingerbread cookies with Dad for the last few days. She has been a little sick so Bret kept her home from church abd they had a great time! The cookies weren't too bad either!
