Christmas!

This whole Christmas season has been so much fun because Aria was experiencing everything for the 1st time. Last year she didn't pay much attention to the lights outside, or to what was going on... but this year, she has taken it all in. She loves to look at Christmas lights, especially. She says "pretty!" whenever we see Christmas lights on someone's house. She points at the stockings and says "stocks" ;-) She likes the snowman on Daddy's stocking. She picked out the biggest stocking for herself ;-) She loves our Christmas tree, and still says "prettttty" when she sees it every day. It will be sad to take it down. She says HO HO HO when we ask what Santa says. I have a little video I will have to upload. She would just say HO HO HO at miscellaneous times throughout the day, too. Silly girl ;-) must have been thinking about Santa ;-)

We had a fun Christmas! We had 2 Christmases - One with Gramma and Grampa (in the pink outfit) before Christmas, and one on Christmas day (in the red and white striped outfit). Aria had sooooo much fun opening presents! Here are some pictures from the two days.

Aria LOVES Elmo!

She liked her new Hello Kitty socks and wanted to put them on right away... even over her PJs

New bracelets and socks
Each present she had this face - sooooo excited!

She loved this new stocking from Grampa

End of the day ;-) I just love this picture ;-)
