Happy New Year everybody! Didn't we paint the town, huh? Well, our faces at least. I got this gift from my friend Brian. It's a face painting set. Daddy helped me learn to use it. Blake was my first, vict.., er, subject. Now we're ready to party!

Here I am being nice, not naughty, just before Santa comes to visit. I've been practicing my "innocent child" look and I think I've got it down nearly perfect. Don't you agree?

"...Faa, laa, laa, laa..." Boy I had a really terrific Christmas. I hope you did, too. I got to see lots of people, eat lots of food and open lots of presents. I helped Blake open his, too. It was his birthday on the same day as Baby Jesus. That makes it easy to remember.

Mmm! Read my lips. I love making gingerbread cookies with Daddy. But my favorite part is the icing. I know the color doesn't look appealing, but it tastes so much better than it looks.

Daddy taught me how to make gingerbread men. And gingerbread Christmas trees, too! We had a bunch of fun. I liked decorating them with colored icing. Plus I got to eat all the mistakes. Boy am I full!

Wow! We got lots of snow this year! We will definitely be having a White Christmas at our house. We've told Santa what we want, or at least I did. Blake doesn't speak to grown-ups yet, so I whispered it to Santa for him. I didn't think of it, but it looks like we should have asked for a bigger sled, huh?

We drove to Santa's Workshop in a snow storm! I never would have found it alone. Then Daddy took this picture of Mommy, Blake and me with the snow falling so everyone would know we made it. Apparently Santa and the elves were at their workshop Christmas Party because all they left behind were these inflatable dolls, of themselves, of course!

I've used a few slides in my day, but this new one at the new playground is definitely not the smoothest ride I've ever had.

We all went to the Santa parade last Saturday night. It was very cold, but Daddy didn't have to be in the parade this year so he held me up so I could see all the bands, floats, horses, beauty queens, the Grinch and best of all, Santa himself with his reindeer and sleigh.

Wow! Wearing Dorothy's magical red shoes really helps my dancing. I just can't help myself. When the music starts, I get up and get down. Whatever that means!
