Snow Day

All suited up

Come on Daddy let's go!

Making snow balls

Let me in Mom! It's cold out here!

Working hard

Gingerbread House

Natalie had a great time building her first gingerbread house. She quickly discovered that the decorations were actually edible but I managed to convince her we can't eat them until Christmas!

American Girl Store

For Natalie's birthday we took her to the American Girl store in Chicago. She has been admiring the dolls in the catalogs for a few months now and she was so excited when she got her very own Julie doll. We had a great time exploring the store (although Natalie did not understand why she could not have everything...especially Julie's $90 bike). We also had a fun lunch with Gaga and Papa! This store is a little girl's dream. I am sure we will be going back there for years to come!

Happy Birthday Natalie!

Natalie turned 3 on December 2nd! We cannot believe our baby has become this funny, sweet, smart little girl! We love you Natalie Bean!

Trimming the Tree

Natalie had a great time decorating the tree this weekend. She was very thoughtful about where each and every ornament should go. When Jack successfully placed the star on top of the tree she gave him a big hug and said "Good Boy Daddy!" Christmas is going to be so fun this year!

Thanksgiving 2010

We're hungry!

Yummy! This is delicious!

And now time for dessert...chocolate covered rice krispie turkeys!!

Watching the Thanksgiving parade...Brrrr it was COLD outside

Luckily it went right by Papa's office so we decided to watch the end of it indoors. Much better!

Go Pacers

We took Natalie to her first Pacers game a few weeks ago. She doesn't quite understand the rules of the game yet but she sure had fun cheering!

Halloween 2010

Even though I told mom I wanted to be Cinderella this year for Halloween, when I got to the store and saw all my options I could not resist this puppy dog costume! I had so much fun at my school Halloween party and trick or treating with my friends Reese and Lily!

Fall Fun

When my mom was out of town visiting Geema Daddy took me to Butler to let me run around and enjoy the awesome fall weather. My baby doll and I had so much fun exploring and playing in all the leaves!

Daddy's Helper

This weekend I helped Daddy sand down a dresser to paint for my new baby brother's room

The shirt says it all...

I'm going to be such a good big sister!

Swim Lessons

Swimming all by myself!

Make sure you catch me Miss Kristin
