Christmas Preparations

The last couple of weeks have been really busy at my house. We are preparing for Christmas! Mom Mom says it a very important holiday because we celebrate Jesus' birthday. I am learning all about Christmas and its traditions this year. So far, I have liked everything about Christmas, especially the cookies, the songs, seeing friends and family...and apparently the best is yet to come!

Getting ready for a celebration this big takes lots of preparation. First off, it snows a lot this time of year. I had to help Daddy clear off all the snow from our driveway last Friday...and today we got tons more. Daddy says it can sometimes be one of those never-ending jobs.

Then, last weekend I got to see Karlie, Jenna and Aunt Amanda, who all came down to Grammy's house to bake Christmas cookies. I didn't help bake them, I just helped to eat them!

Karlie played with me and all my trucks at Grammy's house. Grammy and Jenna were a good baking team!!

This week, our friends Brooke, Angelo and their daughter Ava stopped through as they were traveling through our neighborhood to visit friends. We got to spend some time with them and see how much Ava has grown. She is 10 days younger than Teddy and doing a lot of the same things he is. Teddy and Ava seemed to enjoy playing together.

Next week we have all sorts of fun days planned to celebrate Christmas with family and friends. I'll be sure to take lots of photos so you can see them! MERRY CHRISTMAS EVERYONE!!
