Christmas Time...

Here are some late photos of our lit up home! It was fun to put Christmas lights up on our first home! The beautiful star Matt's parents gave us add the perfect touch!! There are also a few of our living room. I realize it's not quite dark outside, but I always forget to take pictures when it gets dark! You get the idea. :)

It's easy to give directions to our house now. Just follow the star.

I know, it's not the same with the sun blaring through the window.

You can't really tell from the picture, but there are only decorations on the upper half of the tree. Thanks to Audrey.

My attempt at using dollar store garland for decorating. I think it makes the mirror look like Oscar the Grouch.

Here is our electronic Christmas card. Although, you probably got one in an email.
Merry Christmas!!

Playing catch up...

It seems I often get months behind on my blogging, and then I post a bunch all at once. So...here is just that! These are some random pictures of us...well...Audrey Jo.

A sneak peak at our family Christmas card.

Standing up, it's hard for Audrey to find her "rooster."

Caught in the act

She loves to wear mommy's apron and help in the kitchen.
I think we'd better get her a smaller one.

Our cutie pie!

Audrey's New Favorite Things

Audrey has discovered many new things. Mainly little spots for her to sit. Almost like she's in "her own little corner." It's hilarious.
She managed to get passed the barricade behind the t.v. where the vcr and cords are. I went to promptly remove her, and realized that she was...just...sitting there! I discretely watched her for quite awhile, and she would just sit there talking and looking around!
Another favorite place is the pantry. I have a box of jarred peaches on the floor and she enjoys using them as her seat, or step to reach the higher shelves. sigh. She was playing in there one day while I was getting dinner together. After a bit, I glanced over to make sure all was well. Apparently, I had a bag of apples left that I had forgotten about...like months old. She was deliciously enjoying one. Oh, Audrey Jo.
Her most recent favorite place is the couch. Sounds boring, right? Well, she has been pushing up the couch cushions, taking her blanket and books and just sitting there. She really doesn't even need books. She just loves the fact that she can get up there, and then just sits, soaking in the moment. She is such a fun, little girl!

Thanksgiving 2010

We had a nice, quiet Thanksgiving at home, due to the heavy snow fall. It turned out to be very pleasant. Matt and I had fun cooking together in the kitchen. :)
