Christmas at Mimmie and Gramps

We call Connor a little monkey--so now he has his own 

Thanks so much Mimmie and Gramps Hannah just loves her new air hockey table

This little doll is so cute, when you clap the dolls hands together he says "lets play patty cake". Then Connor started playing patty cake with the doll.

Hannah and her new barbie style doll, she also has a microphone that you can sing into with her.

Hannah's favorite--" Tumbles "the roll over puppy.  He is so cute.  When you pet him he whines and rolls over and you can pet him on his belly.  Santa let him for Hannah and Mimmie's house. Thanks for all our nice presents.

Dinner and a Show

We went and ate at one of Hannah's favorites after the show--Rocknees!!

Ariel and Flounder

Tinkerbell

The Lion King

Mimmie and Hannah right before the show

Disney on Ice

Tinkerbell, The Little Mermaid, The Lion King, and Cars

This is Hannah posing into front of our seats, as you can see thery where in the front row on the ice.  We were so lucky and happy to be there.  Hannah wasn't feeling to well but being there I think made her feel a little better.

They had a viewing of all the Disney Princess dresses before the show, so of course we had to get our picture with them.  Hannah favorite princess as you can tell by the dress is Sleeping Beauty.

Hannah couldn't believe that Cinderella was really here.

Gingerbread Houses and Trouble Makers

Hannah had lots of fun making her gingerbread house this year.  I think she ate more of the candy then she decorated the house with.

The finished product.

This is what I find when I turn my head around for a split second.

I didn't get the picture of Connor completely inside of the cabinet.  I went for the camera and then realized that he was kinda stuck for real.  Don't worry he didn't care,  he was to buzy getting out the mac n cheese for lunch.

Mr. Elfie

     Look who came to our house.  I first heard of the Elf on the Shelf from Angie Smith's blog.  It sounded cute and thought it would be a great family tradition to start.  So out I went on a mission to find Mr. Elfie as Hannah later named him.  Now keep in mind that it was around 2 weeks before Christmas when I read about Mr. E from Angie's blog.  I started out at Hallmark #1, no luck then Hallmark #2 no luck and proceeded to go to everyone in a 25 mile radius and guess what, they were sold out everywhere.  I had about given up when I was in Borders and saw someone looking at the last Mr. E.  I ran towards her and almost spilled my coffee all over her.  I think I scared her because she looked at me with a smile and then gently put Mr. Elfie back on the shelf.  What do you think I did??  I did what any other mother who wants to start a new tradition with her 2 small kids, I grabbed him and ran.

Preschool Christmas Program

Hannah was so excited to have her first Christmas program at school.  She had been practicing the Christmas songs everyday.  

She loves to dance while she sings, as you can clearly see in the picture.

Prayers have been answered

     Baby girl Harper from Kellys Korner is just doing amazing.  You should go over to her site if you are one of the few who haven't been to her blog yet.  You are adorable Harper.  I just couldn't wait much longer to see you with your flower headbands.  Now tell mommy its time to put on those monogrammed dresses.  We are all still praying for you.

Playing catch up with my posts and The Polar Express

     Hey everyone, I thought it was time to catch up on everything that has been happening.  I'm sorry that these are so late.  We took Hannah on the Polar Express.  We have been wanting to go the last couple of years, but it has been hard to get tickets (they do a lottery and only give out about 50,000) and we wanted Hannah to be older so she would understand its meaning.  She was even more excited when she found our that her cousin Aiden would also be going.

Aiden, Hannah, and one of the Elves. 

All of us ready for the ride

Here she is in her new jamies ready to go!!!!!!!!!!!

      

Where have I been and prayer requests

     I have much to catch up on.  I haven't posted since Thanksgiving.  Lots of things have happened and can't wait to share, but first of all I am so upset  and have been praying for Kelly, Scott, and their new baby girl Harper (kellyskorner).  I have been following her blog waiting to see that little baby girl and have since learned that she is in very critical condition in a Tulsa hospital.  Please pray for them and their families.
