Driving...

Mama: "Avonlea...look in that field...do you see all of those geese?"

Avonlea: "yeah!"

Mama: " they have to fly away when it gets cold. Where do you think they are going?"

Avonlea: ".......to Santaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!"

my delicious little elf

What do you get when you pair $1 leggings from target with some froggy boots and the cutest cloth diaper ever?

This is what....

Some of you may think it's cruel to dress your toddler up like an elf...but man.....she is so delicious! How can I not? besides....she had more fun than I did. :)

I know I haven't posted in forever. But life is sad here in my little gingerbread house. And I have been trying to be the very best mommy that I know how to be.

And that requires $1 target leggings. and froggy boots. and silly photo shoots. and gingerbread cookies while cozying up under our favorite blanket watching Elmo's Happy Holidays video. Over and over. And over.

When I'm with my littlest elf, things here aren't so sad. And everything is merry and bright.

So Merry Christmas....

Enjoy your holidays, whatever it may be, with full bellies and new memories. Lots of love, overflowing hearts, and laughter. I know we will.

And may all your Christmases be white...

MUAH!

my little star

This is what happens when your 20 month old puts the star on the tree.

I wouldn't have it any other way.

I am loving this christmas season, sucking the marrow out of every moment. She is so fun, so little, so smart....

I cannot WAIT to see her face on christmas morning. :)

Merry christmas!!!
