21 Months!

 

 

 

 

 

 Lou said "Ana, picture!" I said "Sure, you can take a picture with Ana, sit next to her." She wanted to be as close as possible. LOL.

 

 Kisses for Ana.

 Hugs for Ana.

 If she stands on her toes, she's almost as tall as Pumpkin Girl. How did that happen?

 

Happy 21 Months Louise!

 

I can't believe I can say that my baby girl is almost 2. She is a sassy, funny, smart, loving, energetic girl! She says "Hi, Gray!" every chance she gets. When we drop Gray off at school she says "Where did Gray go?" I tell her that Gray is at school and she says "NO, GET GRAY!" She love, love, loves him.

 

Lou also loves Ana and Elsa from Frozen. She's never actually seen the entire movie, yet is so drawn to the characters. She loves dress up clothes and "pretty dresses." She asks to wear a "pretty dress" every single day. If I put her in a t-shirt, I have to refer to it as a "pretty t-shirt" or she wants nothing to do with it. She is a girly girl, but also tough as nails.

 

This morning when Drew was leaving to work I heard Lou say,  "Bye Daddy, I love you." Drew said, "I love you too, Lou" and she replied "Thank you Daddy... you're welcome."

 

Thank you Lou, for bringing us so many laughs and so many sweet, sweet moments.

 

 

 

 

20 months!

 

 

Happy 20 Month Birthday Lou!

 

With all of the excitement of Christmas, I forgot to post Lou's 20 month pictures.

I can't remember a lot that changed between 19-20 months (it's amazing how quickly you forget!) Lou loves to sing Christmas songs with Gray and knows most of the words. She also LOVES singing the alphabet and counting. She counts to 18, sometimes she misses a few numbers.

 

We love you Lou!

10 DAYS UNTIL CHRISTMAS!!!

I feel like 10 days until Christmas is a big deal, so I had to use my favorite Christmas Countdown photo of all time. Ever since Gray got these glasses, we feel he looks like Ralphie from "A Christmas Story." I have watched this movie every year around Christmas as long as I can remember! 

Christmas Countdown-11!

11 DAYS UNTIL CHRISTMAS!

*thanks to jannelle althoff for the great picture of Gray.



Christmas Countdown-12!

 

12 DAYS UNTIL CHRISTMAS!

Lou tried so hard to hold back tears. She had been so excited to see Santa and I could tell she wanted to sit on his lap like Gray was doing...however, she got up there and couldn't hold back her tears. It was so cute. Gray was really excited to see Santa and had no problems going to sit on his lap. He asked for a "Pez dispenser, a new puzzle and a new game." Perfect!
