All I Want(ed) For Christmas Is...

my two front teeth.

Miss Eva will settle for those teeth in the new year instead. As you know, we've been on the lookout for teeth for a while now and have been tricked a couple of times, certain there was something there, but then nothing showed up. Well, a couple of days ago, we felt teeth!! Or at least a tooth! :)

You'll have to take our word for it, since getting a picture at this point is next to impossible. Miss Eva barely lets us sneak our finger in to feel those teeth and promptly closes her mouth as tight as possible when she sees us headed in her direction.

Have a fun, safe new year's eve. We'll see you in 2010, new teeth and all!

Christmas

Eva's first Christmas was wonderful! She got to meet some new cousins and aunt and uncle from Georgia. It was so much fun to have them share Christmas with us. There was just a little bit of snow and a whole lot of cold. Of course, lots of good food and sweet treats and a whole lot of commotion. Eva wasn't completely sure what she needed to do to get to her presents, but did tear a bit of wrapping (and tried to eat some as well!) and had a blast with her new toys. What a lucky little girl to have so many people who love her!!

We hope you had a very merry and blessed Christmas.

Oh, Deer

This has been the scene in our front yard quite a bit this Christmas season. The real deer that live in our neighborhood stop by to visit the oddly white and lit up decorative deer. It's a funny sight.

We're so excited to celebrate Eva's 1st Christmas in a few days. It will be fun to watch her take in all of the sights and sounds.

Yay, Eva!

Miss Eva is so proud of herself these days. She's really starting to master the art of clapping. So, we cheer for everything and Eva claps right along. We'll certainly be doing some cheering once we finally get some temperatures higher than the single digits. Though, the cold and snow certainly do help get us even more in the Christmas spirit.

Holiday Fun

We're really getting in the holiday spirit here. We hope you have as much fun with this as we did!

Thanksgiving

Boy, we had such a nice Thanksgiving! We certainly have a lot to be thankful for this year.

We enjoyed a beautiful day with family and friends and roasting marshmallows outside at the firepit :) Eva enjoyed lots of arms and hugs and kisses and pumpkin puree and sweet potatoes... and a few sleepless nights. We're thinking that maybe, just maybe, some teeth are finally coming in and that's the reason for the fussy nights, as she's not usually a fussy girl. We're hoping to see something popping up soon

While we were playing games, Eva was "playing" with a cousin.
