Poop!

Andrina just made her first poo-poo in the potty!!!! Yay, my little girl who only seems to pee in the potty at school, doesn't like to do it at home, just made her first poop in the potty!

Nativity

Andrina got a "Story of Christmas" book in her stocking last year. We read it then and I pulled it out recently along with all the other Christmas & winter books. She's wanted to read it every night for several days in a row now. Apparently, Baby Jesus is quite the hit! So I got her the little people Nativity set too. I remember really liking the large Nativity set we had I was a kid and wanting to "play" with the pieces but I couldn't because they were breakable. I'm glad I got Andrina one she can play with, without the fear of it breaking!

1st Visit with Santa!

The other day Andrina had her first visit with Santa Claus! She's definately a little kid now who gets Christmas and Santa Claus! She cannot wait for Christmas, everyday she talks about how, "tomorrow is Christmas". Nope, sorry Honey. That's a quote from The Muppet Christmas Carol, it's not going to be Christmas tomorrow quite yet!

Happy Thanksgiving 2010

We had two Thanksgiving celebrations this year. The day before Tom's Auntie Theresa & his cousins came over for dinner. It was so good seeing them again, especially Auntie Theresa. She is such a sweet woman and I've always really loved her. Plus it had been too long since we got together. On Thanksgiving day the three of us went to my parents' house for dinner. We just took a few pictures this time.

Jump Party

Last night Andrina went to a birthday party at a jumpy place. We haven't been to one of those in a while but now, like many things, Andrina is old enough to really enjoy it. She spent the entire night really jumping and playing like the little kid that she has become! I love it!

Arboretum Outing

Andrina and I have gone to the arboretum once before this year. Yesterday was most likely our last day there until spring as it was unseasonably warm! We were lucky we got to meet up with her cousins and both her aunties yesterday!

Cousins & Auntie April

I'm going to start calling Doreen "Super Auntie"! That's over 60 lbs of nieces!
I finally got Andrina to sit still and smile for a photo!

So Well Rounded

One of the many, many things I love about my daughter is how many interests she has and how well rounded she is. I think this picture says it well: she's playing with her train set while dressed up as a ballerina! And she picked out the outfit too!
