Christmas at Home

Caitlin was very excited to see she had two more "Signing Time" videos to help her learn more sign language. Thanks to Molly's friend Abby for introducing us to Signing Time.

Matching with Maddie

Caitlin and Maddie were excited to see that they had matching jammies on christmas night at Grandma Moni's.

Santa Came to Visit!

Caitlin was not sure what to do when she heard the sleigh bells and saw the jolly old man walking up the sidewald to the house. She eventually warmed up and told him she wanted a........"Trumpet"?!?!?!? Say What?

Cheeese

Nanny came over today to help paint the kitchen. I'm surprised they were able to finish with all of my disruptions. :)

I'm guessing at this point she was done......

Santa's little 'helper'

Caitlin was so cute at the parade. Many of the parents around us got a kick out of her as she picked up the candy and went around putting it in other kids bags. One example of what a sweet child we have, she's always offering what she has to others. She probably got that from her great-great-grandparents Jim and Sylvia Manning. They were always giving to others. Great-grandma 'Moni' continues this tradition today.

Too Cute!
