So THIS is Christmas!!

Hi everyone,

I know it is already January 4 2009 but we haven't had a chance to tell you about our wonderful Christmas celebration in Burke's Garden. We headed up their with me (Olivia) strapped in my carseat, Maddy and Allie riding in the back, Mom riding shotgun and Dad driving. We made it to VA without any problems. We stopped once for some lunch for all of us...but the dogs. After my lunch break I took a nice nap and I woke up in the mountains...pretty cool! While we were there it was cold but we didn't have any snow. I got lots and lots of great gifts. My library of books is growing and Mom has been busy reading them to me. She has started reading to me before Bed but I am bit cranky then so we might move our reading time to before Nap time. The dogs were good in Burke's Garden and they didn't try to run away...last year they tried to make a break for it!

Here is our Christmas in pictures, we will post later on our New Years Eve celebration...



Hi everyone...this is my family. Believe it or not, this is the first picture of the the three of us. Usually Mom or Dad is behind the camera snapping the pictures!




We had a party at Grandma Nancy's house before our trip to Burke's Garden. Uncle Jeb and I hung out on the couch together.


Dad turned 31 while we were in Burke's Garden. This is me on his Birthday Morning. I wore my Monkey PJ's just for him ;)
I woke up bright and early on Christmas Morning! I just sat around in my swing while Mom had some coffee and fed the dogs.



I have been working on crawling. I can get my tush in the air and rock back and forth a little bit. I can also go around in a circle really fast! I was the hit of the party!!


I had Christmas dinner with everyone! Daddy strapped me in the highchair that he sat in for Christmas dinner when he was my age. Great-Grandma found it and cleaned it all up, just for me!!



Cheerios were on the menu for me :) I especially liked smashing the tray and making them move around. Isis (Grandmother Nancy's puppy) was on clean up under my seat.
