Over the river and through the woods ...

Well, we are off to warmer weather tomorrow. Mama and Daddy are taking me south for a couple of weeks for my First Christmas to see friends and family - we are grateful to have this opportunity. I made this trip once before with Mama and Grandma but I was so little I don't remember it. Pray for my Mama and Daddy that they would be able to concentrate on driving if I cry a little bit (I still don't like my carseat). So far I like Christmas and the Advent season - the lights are fascinating, Jingle Bells is a close runner up to Twinkle, Twinkle Little Star and the story of Baby Jesus is exciting. I don't really understand it all yet but I think I'm going to like Christmas. Have a Merry Christmas!!!

A special day

What a special day! Today I was baptized at our church. When Pastor Henderson poured water over my head I didn't even cry and many people told Mama that I was precious. My Mama and Daddy are so thankful for me and pray that one day I will come to know Jesus Christ as my Lord and Savior. They look forward to loving me and teaching me about Jesus and raising me in a way that honors God. Please pray for my Mama and Daddy to have wisdom as they raise me! I was glad that Mrs. Gould was there to take pictures and that Daddy's classmate Odessma was there too.

LOTS of SNOW!

Here are some more pictures of the snow - Look how deep it is! Daddy cleared the driveway on Saturday so that we could drive to church on Sunday morning. There was a deep blanket of snow (about 7-8 inches) and more fell on Saturday night and Sunday and ... Mama and Daddy didn't put up a Christmas tree because we are traveling for Christmas but this tree in our backyard is a real Christmas tree with real snow - only the best for me mama says.

A REAL snow day

It has been cold for several days (minus 1 degree two days ago) but yesterday afternoon it started to snow and just kept snowing. We got 6-7 inches of snow by this morning and we are under a "Blowing Snow Advisory" with winds around 15-20 mph. The wind chill makes it about minus 4 degrees today. Mama and I are going to stay inside today but Daddy trudged to the bus stop this morning. He came back after a few minutes because the bus was really late - the picture above is daddy playing with me while he waits for the next bus. The blue hat I have on is from the outfit I am going to wear Sunday to be baptised in - but the hat is a little too snug.

Fuzzi Bunz and Me

It has been over a month since my Mama started using Fuzzi Bunz cloth diapers (prefitted diapers with snaps, fleece lining and a pocket for the insert) and I like them. They keep me dry, they are really soft and feel good on my skin. Mama says that they aren't that hard to use and she has a good routine to keep me in a clean dry diaper all day and night. Here are some pictures of me in my fuzzi bunz. I like to be on my tummy and often I swim and kick my legs and arms while I'm on my tummy.

Winter is here...and so is my second tooth

Today it was 4 degrees when I woke up. It snowed some last week and the snow still hasn't melted. Daddy had to shovel snow on Sunday morning so that we could go to church without sliding down the driveway. Did I mention I woke Mama up at 5 this morning because my tooth hurt? Well, I did. I am getting my second tooth and it seems to hurt more than the first one. It is the tooth on the bottom next to the one I all ready have. And so that you don't think I only smiled today, here is me cryimg because my gums hurt - see my new tooth coming in?
I don't usually cry like this but today was just rough - it's tough being a baby!
