It's beginning to look a lot like Christmas!


It's Christmas time. We have put up our Christmas tree and have been decorating our house. Do you know what?? My favorite part of Christmas so far is eating a piece of chocolate every morning out of the Advent calendar. Every morning I get up right at 6 and ask what the number of the day is so I can open up the door and get a treat when we go downstairs. We have been doing other fun things too!

A few weeks ago we saw Santa arrive on a tugboat. I rode my bike there (I am very good at biking). I don't know that it was all that great really, but Santa is supposed to bring presents one day so maybe he is kind of ok.


Here is us picking out our Christmas tree. We found one super quick and then I ran around the tree lot with some other kids, which was more fun than tree shopping. I really wanted to go to a Christmas tree farm and cut down a tree. Maybe next year!

Grandma Ross came for a quick visit. We had lots of fun playing stickers and one day we made Christmas wreath pizzas. They were really yummy and so cute!

Last Saturday Mommy and went on a DATE! Just the two of us. We went to breakfast with Santa at the zoo. I really LOVE the zoo, but I didn't really love Santa. At first I didn't even want to get near him, but finally decided that we could go see him but don't you dare ask me to get on his lap or actually talk to him. I had two favorite parts of breakfast. 1. There was a penguin in a pack n' play. How funny is that! 2. We went into the zoo after breakfast and went to the giraffe house and got to be really, really close to a giraffe.


Here are some pictures of us decorating the tree. Just like last year my favorite part was helping out with the lights and the garland. Larsen didn't help at all but she did like to watch us, until she got tired of that then she kept eating everything, the tissue paper, the ornaments, the tree needles, oh my! Mommy finally decided to give her a snack and put her in her high chair to watch us so she would stop eating everything and drooling on it and making it yucky!
