Thanksgiving 2005 Read the rest of this entry »
I have the Christmas spirit, thanks to my little girl. The last couple of days we have enjoyed a slow drive home looking at all the Christmas lights. There is a place close to her school that has several large displays of decorations and a lot of lights. Maddie is loving it which makes me love it.
Our drive home has been much more enjoyable than they have been in the past. Normally, Maddie is very fussy about being in the car and she normally does not want to be in her carseat. Now that there are lights to look at, she is content to sit in the back and wait for the next display of holiday cheer.
It makes me anxious to get our home ready for Christmas. I can’t wait to see her reaction to the Christmas tree. She is so much fun and everyday gets better and better.
Happy Holidays!
So the cookies didn’t taste all that great. So what? They had a great time and it was a blast to watch! I can’t wait to do it again next year. Hopefully by then I will have a dishwasher.
One of Maddies new favorite things is jumping off the bed. Yes that’s right, I said OFF the bed. I am there to catch her of course but I am sure that this will be one of the things that I soon regret teaching her. Yes I said teach her, I taught her how to do this.
She stands about a foot from the edge and says “One, two, s, m, n, o, P!” and then she jumps. So I am declaring that she knows how to count AND say her ABCs.
