Final Christmas Post! :)

This will be my last post on Christmas 2009-- I am going to be moving on to 2010! I wanted to get these last pictures of Christmas around our house on here for our book. I don't want to forget :)

Audrey loved this Santa ornament this year. Whenever we would ask her where "Ho!Ho!" was, she would run and point to him on the tree. We could also point to him and ask her who he was and she would say, "Ho!Ho!" in her precious little baby voice!

We put a hot pink tree in her room for her this year. Everytime we would walk in the room she would point at the tree and say, "lights!". I loved it!

Her favorite thing to do is still to play outside. While we are out there, she loves to collect acorns. I found this little acorn ornament and got it for her "2009" ornament. I hope to get one each year that represents something she likes or reminds us of her that year.

We gave her a Little People Nativity at the beginning of December and that was a hit! She was so cute running around the house with Baby Jesus. She loved for me to "hide" him and to ask her to find him. I would move him to the hearth, to the shelf on the island, to her doll bed, where ever. She loved looking for him. She actually loves to play any kind of hide-n-seek! If you want to here this baby girl squeal with delight- just hide from her and let her find you!

Last year I had an imprint of her hand made into an ornament. This year we went with my mom's group to a place that you can paint your own ceramics and they will fire it for you. Audrey and I made an ornament together!

And as she would say--- it's "toot" (cute).

Finally, here's a picture of that "squeal" I mentioned previously. We were playing a game where I hide these cards with red squares around the house. Then she and I "look" for them. She's pointing to the one she found on the door facing in this picture.....

Now, on to 2010!! Happy New Year!
