Cookies for Santa

Here some pictures from Christmas Eve. When we get back to CA, I will post some more photos from Christmas.
This year, just like last year, I made some yummy cookies for Santa on Christmas Eve. Mommy helped and so did Jaydlie. We made Snickerdoodles! (We even got to eat some, and they were gooood!)
Here's all of us making the cookies!
Below is the video of me coating the cookies with the cinnamon sugar and filling up the pan.

As the cookies finished baking, I put them on a plate and carried them to the fireplace. Along the way, the cookies kept sliding off the plate onto the floor! Mommy said that Santa wouldn't mind so, we scooped them up and put them back on the plate. Santa must have really liked them because on Christmas morning I got up and ran straight to the cookies and said, "Cookie all gone!!" Santa ate them all.

Christmas in Lincoln

I had a great Christmas! I got to rip into lots of presents and got some really neato stuff. To kick off the week of Christmas, we all loaded up in the cars and drove to Lincoln to visit some family.
In the picture above, I am posing with Great Grandma Jan. I hadn't seen her since last Christmas time, so I was a lot different this time around. I had so much fun with her! We were so glad that she was able to come and see us during our short stay in Lincoln.

In the picture below, Jaydlie and I are sitting with Great Grandma Connie. We saw her back in October, so it hadn't been too long, but it was great seeing her again and sharing some of Christmas time with her and some other family in Nebraska.

Waiting for Santa....

Merry Christmas Eve! This is me waiting for Santa to come. I am having a great time here in KC with everyone and I am understanding what Christmas is all about a little more this year. I can't wait to open presents tomorrow. I love ripping into gifts!
This was my 3rd time visiting Santa and Jaydlie's first. Don't we make a cute pair in our matching outfits?! Sorry I haven't updated in awhile, but Mommy will try really hard this week to update with new stuff.

What's new with me? Well, I am talking up a storm now and I can pronounce my words really well. I love to play and be really loud all the time. I like playing video games with Uncle Chris.. Grandpa Doug reads a book called Tweedle Beetles almost every night when I go to bed. I have a pretty good routine, but have started not taking naps much anymore. I have "quiet time" (or what I call, "quiet night") where I sit and watch a video during Jayde's nap time. Not too much else going on here.
Everyone have a Merry Christmas and make sure to go to bed early so Santa can come!

Birthday fun!

On Tuesday, Mommy celebrated her 22nd birthday. Grandma made a nice dinner and cake for her! Mommy wanted me to help blow out the candles, so here is the video. I had lots of fun with these re-lighting candles!
