Newborn

LilE, as she prefers to spell it, is my wild child. She lives on the edge, literally at times. Hardly looking where she is going, running full speed ahead. 

1 Year Old
All about LilE:

Still loves shoes and will wear "mixed up" boots, a different one on each foot.
Wants to be a "Kitty" when she grows up.
Loves pink and all things girly.
Hello Kitty and all cats are still on the top of the list as favorite animals.
She still talks, a lot. 
Still sucks her thumb.
Loves to help out around the house with reminders, sometimes on her own.
Writing most all of her letters, both upper and lower case. 
Doing "school" at home now. 
LOVES her big brother and is Okay with baby sister most of the time. 
Has a serious gag reflex to anything "gross".
Loves Ballet class but should probably be in gymnastics. I have found her hanging off the back of the couch.
She always has a smile on her face.

2 Years Old preparing for her future as a Kitty.

Christmas 2014

Merry Christmas!! (A little late.) It seems like this year I'm doing a lot of things a little late. I was late finishing up our annual "year in review" photo album, I was late sending out Christmas cards and didn't even send to everyone on my list, and now I'm late doing this post. Oh, well. Better late than never!



We did all of our regular traditions like the Advent calendar and hunting for the perfect Christmas tree.







And took our trip to Storybook Land (AKA The North Pole) to visit Santa.




Cora was in love. And I think Santa was pretty smitten, too.


We started some new traditions- Elf on the Shelf, hand prints, and gingerbread houses.







I never got around to making Cora a Christmas stocking. I should get started now and maybe she'll have one by next year!
