I had an EARLY doctor's appointment this week and woke up to snow! It was just a dusting of snow, not enough to play in, but pretty to look at and enough for Amelia to make a tiny snowman to keep in the freezer. It's still in there...she goes to the freezer to visit him every day. (LOL)

We had a special movie night this week. After bath time we made hot cocoa, turned off the lights, and watched A Charlie Brown Christmas. Amelia was glued. Her favorite character was Snoopy. I loved just watching her face the entire time.

Alex put up our tree several days ago but I just got around to putting the ornaments on this afternoon. I wanted to surprise Amelia when she woke from her nap. We came around the corner and she said, "OH WOW!!"

I took part in an ornament exchange hosted by several bloggers. I received the prettiest ornaments from my partner, Jenn! She sent me this "A" and snowflake ornament and a pretty frame ornament that I still need to put a pic in. Thank you so much, Jenn. I'll think of you every time I look at them.

I put a special ornament on the tree for Amelia. It's the one she can play with and touch as much as she wants. It has a button that she can push and it sings "Hark the Hearald Angels Sing." I'm hoping this will keep her from touching/breaking all of the other ornaments. We'll see. So far so good. :)

We accomplished a little decorating today. I'm not going all out like I usually do but have a few things I definitely want out. I love seeing my girl's names on their stockings. :)

Christmas is only 17 days away. Can you believe it!???
Love to all,
She looks SOOOO sweet in her little hat. She is such a beauty! And what a great idea about giving her one Christmas ornament. You're so smart.
ReplyDeleteThat picture in the hat is just darling.
ReplyDeleteWe have a similar rule for the nativity...the boys are only allowed to touch their Fisher Price Little People nativity. :) Our tree is still ornament-less so we may need to do the same with ornaments! Your tree is beautiful...especially with your girl in her PJs standing in front of it.
ReplyDeleteI love these pictures, so lovely. My pregnant Christmas last year was also much scaled back on the decorating and I didn't want to stress myself out too much. I LOVE that you have stockings for both girls. LOVE.

Look at their stockings!!! Love =)
ReplyDeleteYour tree looks so pretty. And, that little princess in the hat could not be any sweeter. Love her!
