Merry Christmas Season to Everyone!

Hello Everyone! It's been a few weeks, well maybe a little over a month. But, we have been very busy! I am going to post a couple of different posts today that will show you all what we have been doing! Here are a few pictures from this week: Julia Kate and I have been trying to decorate for Christmas! Of course, really I get items out and she has to play with them. She is mesmerized by the snow globe. It's a little heavy for her to when it stops she knows that Mama will shake it up so she can watch it over and over and over and...........Of course it doesn't take long to move on to something else........note the toys, who knows what Santa should bring?Then, it's just too much!I have started dressing her in footed pajamas at night with the hopes that she will stay nice and warm since she has a tendency to throw her blanket off and wake up! This is one pair, she wouldn't model for me, you can see her Daddy's toes in the picture and I'm sure they were having a very important discussion since she is very serious looking! Then, this is a new MK original. I had to try it on her Tuesday night. Well, Tuesday Julia Kate also received 6 shots! Bless her heart, two in each thigh and one in each arm. But, she was a trooper and allowed me to play dress-up anyway. When I was taking these pictures, I noticed her upper lip on the left side looked funny and sure enough it was swollen. She looked so pitiful - we still aren't sure exactly what happened, it was ok by morning.
She says a few words, mostly "Mama", "Dada", and "ball". However, I can say, "Where is (in this case) the teddybear?" and she has that little finger pointing! Or flipping pages, she loves to "read" her books and flip the pages!
