Karli's Christmas Play

Tonight was the annual Christmas play at our church, Wesley Memorial United Methodist. First we all got toghether to have a fabulous dinner with tons of food then the show began. Karli was an angel and sang 2 songs in the play. There was not a more beautiful angel there, and I'm not even being partial...haha! Here are a few pics of her in action...

I was no other place than front and center to take pictures. She wouldn't look right at me and smile, ofcourse...but she was so proud of herself!

After the play was complete we were all visited by none other than Santa! Karli jumped right up and was the first one in line! She's had no hesitation this year when it comes to sitting in Santa's lap and telling him exactly what she wants. This year she told him she wanted a "castle." A barbie castle is what I'm thinking. His response was, "is that all you want, just one thing?" She says yes! What a cool kid...haha!

Please Mom...Please!

"Please Mom, Please! Can I just fall asleep in your bed. When I go to sleep you can put me in my room and I promise I'll stay there, but can me and Rosco just please go to sleep in here?!?" I gave in, she was too cute!

Say Cheese!

Just one picture I took tonight that I thought was precious! They are growing so fast I can hardly believe it. What one does the other follows. Only two days apart, these two have grown up hand in hand and I could not be more thankful!

Ewww....Lemons!

So...we went out to dinner Saturday night with Stephen, Bridget, and Stephen Jr. Stephen Jr infomred me that he likes to eat lemons and wanted mine out of my tea. Curious to see this for myself I gladly handed it over. This is what followed. I just thought it was too cute to not share...Karli got a good laugh out of it. However, he continued to eat the entire lemon...amazing to me!

Christmas Festivities

Friday night Karli, Stephen, Bridget, and myself went downtown Columbia to see the Christmas festivities going on for Rivertown Christmas. Friday night they had a parade of boats on the river all lit up with christmas lights and on the last one appeared none other than Santa Clause!


They had the boardwalk roped off so nobody could get across but Bridget and I are loud enough that ofcourse we got Karli and Stephen across and a picture with Santa! How uncomfortable does Karli look in this picture?!!

This is what two happy peas in a pod look like when they get to spend time with each other!

Nursery

Alot of people have been asking me if we have the nursery ready and want to know what it looks like. So...these are a few pictures of our unfinished room. It's green and we decided to put the aquarium in the corner for a night light, plus it sounds very soothing we think! I have the swing and carrier in there for now. The changing table will go on the other wall and we also have a custom built armior opposite the crib.

I love this bedding set. Although dragonflies make me think girl, I just love the green and brown combination. So either way this turns out (boy/girl) I'm very happy with it!

Daddy and Me

Karli loves the time she gets to spend with her daddy...especially when it's outside time. Last week Karli and William went for a walk in the woods to look for deer, this is the picture I took before they left. It's one of my favorites and I just had to share.

They both look so excited don't they? She received this outfit from her MiMi (William's mother) and she calls it her "hunting gear for daddy time." I just find it precious!
