It's beginning to look a lot Christmas

Last week we experienced our first snow!  It has snowed three days since then.  I took Nellie out while it was snowing and people were giving me the "how dare you take your baby out in this" look.  One lady said something I just pretended not to notice.  


Nellie is all dressed up for church this Sunday.  


Family pic!

Saturday we celebrated our 5 year anniversary and Lauren came to town to babysit Nellie.  It was our first time to leave her with a sitter and they both did great!  

See how excited Nellie is that Mamma and Daddy are celebrating 5 years!?


We went to the Nutcracker ballet.  It was my first time to go.  Because it was  opening night there were a lot of mistakes but it was still super fun.  
Now here are some smiles from sweet Nellie.

Hi cutie!




Tummy time.  She HATES it and will only stay there a couple of minutes.  She gets good practice by laying on my chest and lifting up her head.  
She is cooing and smiling like crazy and sleeping TEN hours a night!  She usually takes three naps a day and loves to ride in her sling while I'm shopping.  

We bought a tree!  I am glad we did it makes me happy and gets me in the Christmas spirit.

We got your package yesterday! Not the card yet - glad you told us it was coming, we would have been mystified for sure. :) Thanks so much for sending that stuff - so thoughtful! Congrats on 5 years together. Glad you had a good date.

Hi guys- Merry Christmas! Nellie is so cute! We're back visiting my parents and it makes me miss you guys- you were here when we left. Bruce and Morgan just had their baby a couple of days ago- that made me think of you too. We'll enjoy the good foods for you while we're here.
