I think Riley liked her cake, too!

Tripp on Christmas morning, not sure what to do with all the presents.
He knew what to do with the left-over cookie that Santa left, though! He helped himself!
Do you think she liked the Hello Kitty shirt?
What a sweet face on Christmas morning!!!
Claudia got the Digital Arts and Crafts studio from Mommy and Daddy! Mommy likes playing with it, too! It's really cool!

Whatcha doin' on your head, Tripp?

Here's what happens when you don't have child locks on the cabinets. He looks so proud!
Claudia and Tripp at Landon's birthday party at McDonald's. Tripp just climbed up there like a big kid!
He really enjoyed the cake and ice cream way more than he did at his own party.

Claudia and Miley, her new American Girl doll.
On the way home from Chicago, we stopped at a mall and all the girls got a Build-A-Bear. This was Claudia's first time getting one. I think she had fun!
Amelia, Claudia, Janelle, and Riley getting their hearts ready to put in their bears.

Claudia and I took a trip to Chicago the first weekend in December. We went with Becky, Janelle, Amelia, Sarah, and Riley. The girls wore matching outfits!

We went to the American Girl Doll store and had a blast! All the girls got dolls and clothes and all the goodies! The store was just wall to wall people; a very popular place to visit.
While we were having lunch it started snowing really hard. We all piled into a horse drawn carriage and took a ride around Chicago, singing Christmas carols and laughing! It was really a special time.

Trick or treating at the Louisville Zoo. We had lots of fun. Here's Claudia, Riley, and Janelle with the Wizard of Oz people.
Tripp and Janelle with the good and bad witches.

Tripp's first carosel ride. He doesn't look very impressed, does he?
My little cowgirl! She looks so grown up!

Tripp's first birthday! He wasn't really impressed by the cake... or the presents for that matter. He liked the paper, though.

Just a few cute pics at Nanna's house in August.

A fun visit with our friends Alyson, Abby, and Mandy at Christies new house in Bowling Green in August.
