Disney on Ice

We went to Disney on Ice with Stacey, Dwayne and Claire

Lucy has been doing so good at going potty, so this was one of the treats for not pooping in her pull-up for more than a month.

Lucy wore her Belle dress once again

The problem with going to this is that in the middle of the show and for weeks after Lucy thinks she is ice skating everywhere. And she needs help to do it, so while we paid to see people skate, we got Lucy saying hold my hand, leg, head, back and so on.

Lucy got one thing from the Allen's it is her love for popcorn!

Every night she asks us to make her a little bag of popcorn, ask her what she wants for breakfast, lunch or dinner.....popcorn.

So anytime she sees it at an event that is what she wants.

While the little mermaid was skating to 'Kiss the Girl' Lucy reached over and kissed Claire

So cute!

St Patty's Day Parade

We decided to check out the St Patty's Day parade this year.

It was hard to find any info on it, but there was so many people there.

It was FREEZING but we bundled up and sat through the rain and snow to see it.

Claire was happy as can be about being there with all those people

We made the girls to-to's to wear, but it was so cold they had them under the blankets in the strollers.

I hope the luck of the Irish is with us next year and it will be a little warmer!

Big Girl Bed

Lucy has never slept in her own room, she always stayed in our bed, then we bought a toddler bed, so that moved in our room and she did really good at sleeping in it.

One day we cleaned the office (Lucy's room) and Lu asked if we could move her bed in there. So we did and that was the end of sleeping in our room.

The bad part is that I worry about if she has a blanket and if she is going to be cold. And if she is going to hurt herself with her crazy positions.

One day she was like this in the morning.

And the next day like this.......

That would have to hurt.

SNOW

Chris took 2 weeks off of work between Christmas and New Years

Most days I would come home and Chris and Lucy would still be in PJ's with nothing done. So I decided to leave work 2 hours early one day and come home to play in the snow. Lucy loved it!

Here is Lucy ready to play in the snow.

Priceless smile

Lucy knew with this snow she was going to nail him!

Christmas Morning

This year I told myself that I was not going to take pictures of every moment, that from now on I was going to live in the moment and have memories of that time instead.

Well this Christmas I lived up to it. I only have about 10 pictured of the whole day, I am going to have to find a happy medium somewhere.

This is Lucy when we woke her up and told her Santa had been here.

This is our Christmas tree

We live in such a little place, and thought it would be fun for Lucy to have her own tree, so we went to the store and Lucy picked out everything including the tree, then we came home and let her decorate it all by herself.

Lucy saw Santa three times this year and every time she would ask for a baby, stroller and bottles. This is just what Santa brought her.
