December Fun at Home!

Getting ready to head out to school one Friday, I just looked and her and couldn't believe my eyes! She looked soooo big! What happened over night?! What did I feed her last night that made her get all crazy big on me just like that?! Oh dear, it's just all going by so fast!



Santa brought us an Ice Cream, Yogurt, Sorbet maker "Early" for Christmas! Woo-hoo! We decided to inaugurate it with Oreo ice cream...delicious!


And so this was the outcome!


Her first touch of SNOW!
When We Cheered for Huskers & Horns
Mom and Dad's favorite teams were in a big game during the holidays so we thought we'd have some fun. We put banners inside and outside the house and we dressed up to support our teams. Abigail had it rough since she had to wear both teams. I let her wear Nebraska for most of the day since I knew they wouldn't win and it would make Daddy happy. Ha!

We visited Reindeer Village and got lots of comments on our attire!











ABIGAIL TELLING DADDY, THOSE SILLY CORNHUSKERS AREN'T GONNA WIN DADDY!!

Another Studio Wolf original...

Christmas Photo Shoot!

Our Chirstmas Photo Shoot at Home, from Studio Wolf!

It seems like each photo shoot just gets more lively! She really enjoyed this one and so did we. We tried to create a winter wonderland of sorts so it was a little bit crazy, but fun!















The Gingerbread House

We started a new Christmas tradition for our house...building a Gingerbread House. Daddy and Abigail woke up one morning and pulled out the box and started to assemble the little house! It took them about an hour and they had a GREAT time putting it together. It ended up crashing down at the very end, but that was okay since it was more about the journey than the destination really! ha!



She couldn't believe it was a "little" house!



I love this photo of her soft delicate hand on daddy's offering up her help!


She was very attentive to the whole process wanting to understand how it all worked!


Look it how carefully she applied the decorations!


Mommy got the birds eye view!


Looked pretty scrumptious from here, but I wouldn't dare eat it!


She was offering up some of the candy!



It created a mess like most things we do, but how could you get upset at those hands!



And well, here was the finished product! :)
