Poor Thing

This was just to cute not to post. I was working until 8 pm tonight and only had about 20 mins left. Layne was gone because he had to run to practice for choir. So Julia was left to her own devices in the living room. Usually she will just watch a show on T.V. or just play in the kitchen or in her room. It was quiet when I was done with work so I went to check on her. I checked her room first....not there. So I venture out to the living room and I called out her name. Usually she will come running out from where ever she is but not this time. I found her in her little spot where she likes to sit and read most days. But this time she had found a pillow and was out like a light, sippy cup in hand. Good thing she already had her pajamas on!

Santa??!!

I guess this experience speaks for itself!! Its a before and after shot with our visit with Santa. I hope she grows out of it:)

Joy of Christmas

Oh, the wonderment of little ones!! It is so fun to watch Julia at Christmas. She is fascinated with the tree. She loves to touch and look at all the ornaments, until she pulled so hard on one that the tree fell over on her and now won't go near it.....I guess she learned her lesson. But she will see the stars and Santa's and call them out by name. I caught her one night lying down under the tree and touching the ornaments. Just the precious moments we capture. To see Christmas through the eyes of a child....how sweet!!

Holiday Season

We had a Wonderful Thanksgiving weekend!! We spent time with both sides of the family. Thanksgiving day was quiet and restful. Lots of food and great company. Then for the weekend we went to the Parker Christmas Party!! It was great to see all the extended family. We had a great time. Julia was just on "go mode" never stopping. We all came home and crashed. And when that happens it usually means we had a fun filled, exciting time.
Julia is begining to understand more and its fun to watch her learn new things. Its exciting to see her learn about the holidays. When see she's a Santa she will say "ho, ho, ho" but it comes out more like "oh, oh, oh!!" She is just too cute.
I'm excited for this upcoming Christmas season. A season to be thankful for our Older Brother, Jesus Christ, who sacraficed all! What a blessing! Let us all take time out this Christmas season to ponder the true meaning of Christmas.
