November - December 2013


We have had a great couple of months - and very eventful. Your baby sister has finally arrived and you love her so much! You are getting to be so big and grown up. You now have "chores" which include setting and clearing the table at dinner time. You LOVE to sing and even sing made up songs all the time. We are currently working on teaching you the importance of being polite and helping you to obey "right away."

Here are some photos and some fun things that you said these last couple of months.


November 6 - “It’s my birthday today, I’m going to be 8:30!”


November 11 - You make up songs to sing all the time. They are so funny and cute. Tonight you were singing to your doll - “Have you ever held me before? Have you ever picked me up? I was a mommy to you. I was a good mommy to you…”

November 16 - You went fishing for the very first time! We got together with the other families from our Adult Bible Class at church for a bonfire and fishing in the little pond. You had the best time!

November 19 - Playing with your pretend makeup and being very silly!



November 20 - You usually yell “Mommy! I’m awake!” in the morning when you wake up. Today it was “Mommy! I’m awake! And I have a booger!” Today you also let your plush Ariel doll go swimming. In the toilet. After you had peed. Before you flushed.

November 28 - Thanksgiving Day - You were excited to learn that Pops was cooking a turkey. When he pulled it out you asked, "Does it have a face?" You also enjoyed the traditional fun of jumping in the leaves with your cousins. Later that day we went to Nana & Grandpa's house and you helped Nana make cookies. And before we left Nana's you found some lipstick in Aunt Jessica's purse and knew exactly what to do with it. :)





November 29 - Not only did you dress up like Snow White, but you used the tree skirt as your cape. Haha!

November 29 - Our Elf on the Shelf, Noelle, is back!


December 1 - Today your baby sister was born! We changed our minds at the last minute and decided that instead of naming her Ariana we would name her Ariani. You had a hard time with that and called her Ari-eena for a couple of days until you got it right.

December 5 - When it snowed you couldn't wait until the next day to get out in it. You bundled up on top of your pajamas and went out with Daddy to play.


December 6 - Every time you pray for a meal you say, “Dear Jesus, thank you for this good food and for this good day. And thank you that Ariani came out of mommy’s tummy. Amen.”

You love to hold your baby sister!

Today your baby cousin Ralee was born!


December 7 - You went to the circus with Nana, Grandpa, and Jase today. When you came home you told me that you liked the fairies that were flying around up high and that some of them were boy fairies. Also, you picked out your own outfit today... it was insane. :)


December 8 - Today you put some of your green beans from dinner in your purse “to keep them safe.” You also enjoyed some time sledding with Nana, Grandpa, Daddy, and Jase.



December 9 - Loving on your baby sister

December 10 - When you were praying at bedtime you prayed, “Help Aunt Jessica and Uncle Jacob to get their airs fixed.” (Their furnace was not working.)


December 11 - You didn’t want to eat the pasta I was making for dinner and you got in trouble. When Daddy told you to come apologize to me you said, “Mommy, I’m sorry.” “Sorry for what?” I asked. “I’m sorry I have to eat that food.”

Also today you spent some time "reading" a book to Ariani. It was the sweetest moment!


Here is a photo Grandpa took of you with Ariani.

December 23 - You call it Pizza CiCi’s instead of CiCi’s Pizza.


December 24 - I told you we would have candles at tonight’s church service and you said, “And balloons?”

December 25 - Christmas Day








December 26 - When asked if your room was clean you said, “I left my clothes on the floor. I mistaked."

December 28 - Yesterday you went to Nana's to play with Aunt Carole and somehow you hurt your foot just getting off the couch. Go figure. You got a bandage at the doctor's office, which you thought was pretty cool. :)
