Christmas party hopping
We traveled to Ohio Friday, Dec. 16. Pagi and Grandma were glad to see us.
We celebrated our second Christmas party here and had a great time. Santa even stopped by with some early presents!
Waiting for more guests to arrive for the Christmas celebration!
Here they are!
Santa walks in the door...Stella was thrilled.
Christmas party #3 in Indiana with the Kruse family. Granpa Claus hands out the gifts to a captive audience.
Ruby was VERY interested in a little baby there. She was very careful with him and liked to gently pat his legs and feet.

Pre-school Christmas
Stella had her first ever Christmas program on Thursday. It was so much fun to watch her 'perform' up there. All the three year olds were candles and sang 3 or 4 songs up there. Stella really knew the words and the motions to all the songs. Second classmate over from Stella's left is Trevor, her very favorite friend in class.
Classroom Christmas party after the program.

My Video 12/12/11 at OneTrueMedia.com
Pictures from December. We had our first Christmas party with friends. All the friends exchanged gifts and had a great time. The nest night we went to Hollywild to look at an amazing amount of lights and see some really cool animals. Very fun.

Santa Claus
The girls and I went to the mall yesterday and guess who was there!
Jolly old St. Nick. Stella was very glad to see him. Ruby was too until I sat her down on his lap! I suppose this is a classic picture with Santa and I'm glad we have one. I hope Santa gets paid very well for his long days at the mall holding everyone's crying babies.
Ruby got a gingerbread man cookie for her troubles.

lately
Ruby is such a funny little girl. She loves to spin herself around and around until she gets dizzy. She rocks forward and backward in her high chair durning mealtimes. She smiles really cheesy and on purpose; she knows that makes us laugh. When she gets in trouble and I frown at her she smiles very coyly at me. It's as if she already knows how to weaken my resolve. She a child prodigy! :)
She will steal Stella's blanket from her to cause a comotion and she has been ALL ABOUT the christmas tree. She is always messing with the ornaments and has already broken several; she is relentless. Our tree is very top heavy with ornaments now. We are really looking forward to Christmas this year; Ruby is going to be so much fun and Stella can't wait for Santa to come! Every night she asks if it will be the night for Santa to visit.
Stella is doing great in school and we are really looking forward to her first christmas program which will be next week. She wears a necklace, bracelet and bow or head-band to school almost everyday. We've been having lots of fun shopping together this month, and putting up the christmas decorations, getting the christmas card and envelopes ready and making ornaments and a gingerbread house together.
This was the night we put the christmas tree up. We watched a christmas movie, drank hot cocoa and had popcorn. It was a fun night.
Stella ate one piece of candy for every one she put on the gingerbread house.
We went to the annual Greenville Christmas Parade last weekend. It is always a great parade. Stella's favorites are all the bands that come through, the cute dogs and Santa in his sleigh.
