January Photos

Just a bunch of miscellaneous photos from January (so far).

Our "umbrella tree", during one of the snow storms.

January 9, 2009 - Chloe is three years old!

Making burritos:

Her family birthday party (she'll have a small one with just her friends in February):


She opened the card, looked at the money, said "A hundred bucks!" and threw it aside. The funny part? It actually WAS $100!
With some of Daddy's old toys. She loves them!


Taking advantage of my crafts room:

She's getting much better at printing her name! I only had to help her with the arch on the 'h'.

A big girl bed!

From this:

To this!
She's so excited to be sleeping in a big girl bed. Her crib converts to a daybed (as it is now) and then a toddler bed (no side wall, and shorter head/footboards). We're on the lookout for a nice trundle bed, because we'll only be able to fit a single in her room.

December 2008

A few photos from the last month of 2008! We forgot to get NYE photos this year :(

At my dad's work Christmas party (for kids):


More snow!

Cookies and milk for Santa, carrots for the reindeer.

Our Christmas Tree(s)

I took photos with the lights off, and the lights on, so you can see some of the details. This is our new tree. It's huge! It's pre-lit with 1,000 lights, so it's nice and bright. This photo was taken with all the lights in the house off, and you can see how the tree lights up the room!
I've yet to find a topper and/or tree skirt that I like, so ignore the ugly stand and cord!
This was the first tree Dare and I bought; when we lived in the tiny condo, we didn't have room for anything bigger. Now it's technically Chloe's tree, with some of her own special ornaments on it.

We had a bit of snow

It snowed the other day, but nothing significant. Last night it started snowing again, and didn't stop until tonight around 7pm. We all stayed home (although I managed to get quite a bit of work done - the joy of having a laptop) and Brenda came over to play with Chloe outside while Dare shovelled.

Anyway, I took a break to take a few photos.
