Santa brought Vada a stuffed Rocket (from Little Einsteins show, which she loves), and it has been a huge hit!
She also loved the gifts from Uncle Michael, especially the ladybug tutu!
Put them both together – pure bliss!!
My favorite gift for her was the baby doll with hand-made clothes from my mom!
Chris got her a set of wooden musical instruments, and they were a big hit too!

Vada’s been starting to use the mouse a little bit. It’s slow going!

Let the present opening begin! We each opened one gift on xmas eve – Vada got new xmas jammies!

After a brutal trip, Heidi and her kids finally made it here. Welcome to the land of snow! Here’s Vada with her cousin Rachel.

I love this picture of Vada with my sister Sue!
I think Vada’s favorite thing about hanging out with her cousins is the group bathing!

It started snowing on Thursday morning (the 18th), and never let up for over a week! The school district canceled school that day, so daycare was closed too…

Here’s Vada’s school holiday photo. I think this one will become our Christmas card this year! I just wish I was skilled enough to photoshop some bows onto her ponytails!

We’re having a WEEK of below-freezing temps out here!! I hope it warms up a little in time for Christmas!
