A few pre-Christmas activities

 So the night before Christmas Eve we all bundled up and went to the Wildlife Museum to see their Winter Wonderlights.

 After seeing all the animals in lights we went inside to see How the Grinch Stole Christmas on the big movie screen. That was a BIG hit.
Making reindeer food to sprinkle on the lawn for Santa's reindeer to eat on Christmas Eve. Every little  bit helps right?

Toenails

A little pre-Christmas pedicure in sparkly red. Can you guess whose feet are whose?

Party Time!

 Pizza time!
 Even Teah ate pizza!
 Happy birthday to you....
 Not quite sure what to do with this cake.
 "Aw, why not...who needs hands?"
" You lookin' at me?"
 Yum-o.

 Let me wash it down with this milk that I now get to drink.
 Life is good.
 I think I may be done now.

 Presents galore.


 I am loving babies these days so much that when I see one I point and say "ba-by"

What a great birthday! Thanks everybody for everything. I feel so loved.

Party Set up

 So, as mentioned before, Teah's 1st birthday was the 18th. We had a party for her on the 19th. The theme was milk and cookies. All the kiddos wore their jammies and ate cookies and milk while watching holiday movies.  Guess what the dad's watched? (Hint: Look at the TV.)
 Milk and Cookie Bar complete with regular, chocolate, or strawberry milk. Yum.
 Pics of Teah from newborn til now. Holy cow has this year gone by fast.
 Here's a close up of our little Tee Tee.
 Mommy was going to have us decorate cookies but decided on a gingerbread sticker craft instead. Lot less hassle....and mess.
Everybody got to go home with their choice of homemade pink or brown playdough (that I helped make) and cookie cutters.

The Actual BIG Day

It finally came....Teah's 1st birthday!  We really did the big celebration the day after (stay tuned for pics) but she got to open a couple gifts on the actualy day. This gift was from us. Here she is waiting so patiently for Daddy to open the box.
Here I am being the great big sis and helping to teach her how to use it.

So focused.
This one was from Grandma and Grandpa. Again, I'm right there to help.
 "Okay, if you insist. I'll open the whole thing myself."
 This is where Teah took over.
 Love my Polar Bear that shivers when I hug him. Thanks Grandma and Grandpa!
Oh, and I love the wrapping paper too!

A Little Fishing Anyone?

Party Time

 Finally, a birthday party (besides my own) that I could participate in. Beep beep! Look Out!
 This slide was just a warm up. Check out what's next.
 Wheeeeeeee!
Not quite the whole crew but most anyway. Happy birthday Mason!

Last Soccer Practice (For Now)

 A little meeting with the couches....I mean coaches.
 A little pre-game stretch.
 Time for drills.
Not sure who is more worn out after practice...me or Daddy.

Santa Shots

So for the second year in a row, our friend Jay got to take me to see Santa. (Last year Mommy was in the hospital having Teah and this year she was busy doing who knows what.) So, if you're wondering why Teah isn't in any of the pics that's why. Maybe next year we'll finally get to take a family trip to see Mr. Claus.


 Here I am telling Santa that I want to be a doctor and a drummer when I grow up.
So excited for Christmas!
