Our Week in Review..........

We put Anna Claire's Christmas tree up in her room.
We put the living room one up as well, but I don't have a picture of it yet.
We had Thanksgiving dinner at Nana's this year, which was wonderful!! Boo Boo (Cliff's Grandmother and Anna Claire's Great Great Grandmother) brought a picture from a catalog of a coat that she had ordered for Anna Claire. I must say I was a little disturbed bc I was told it was beaver fur. I immediately thought of PETA and could see Anna Claire freaking out on me in 20 years bc I allowed her to wear fur. The coat arrived Saturday and thank goodness I looked and it is faux fur!! Here she is trying it on and telling me no more pictures. Her hopscotch rug arrived Saturday as well. Anna Claire loves hopscotch and has been trying to play on the rug in the hallway. I found a hopscotch rug on sale for $17, so I had to order it. Here is Anna Claire mid-jump, pink tutu and all. Anna Claire has made her first drawing where I actually agreed that it looked like what she said it was. Do you know what it is?An acorn, of course!! Give her a break, she's two. LOL!!

Sunday I started putting Anna Claire in her holiday attire for church. We've only got 4 Sunday's {counting yesterday} before Christmas, so we have to start on the holiday outfits early. This is her gingerbread dress.

Pictures................



I still haven't uploaded Halloween pictures, so these will have to do. Anna Claire's MeMe bought her some new ballerina pajamas the other day. Anna Claire was so excited that she wanted to sleep in her tutu. I talked her in to taking it off and promised she could wear it to her MeMe's the next day. Not only did she wear it to her MeMe's, she wore it to the fire hall with her Uncle Josh, to Gymnastics where she offered to let her teacher wear it, and then to McDonald's.
Here she is in her new pj's and her high heels.

I'm a Slacker

I'm behind. I haven't uploaded pictures from Halloween yet and I have a few others that I haven't uploaded yet either. The time change has messed with me.

Anna Claire got her seasonal flu shot Saturday. The Dr's office had everything in order and we were in and out within 5 minutes. I was very impressed. Kerry had to go with me bc I am not strong enough to hold Anna Claire's legs and arms at the same time. I think she may have some sort of super power.

Kerry started a new job on Monday, praise the Lord!! Thank you for all your prayers, as God heard them and came through. I sometimes doubt him and am slowly learning that I shouldn't. He is training this week and will start his regular shift on Monday. I think it's Monday, maybe it's Sunday. I'm not sure. He works 48 hours one week and 36 the next, but doesn't work the same days. Does that make sense? It's a good thing they gave him a calendar.

Since I don't have any pictures to share, I will share a few Anna Clarie moments with you.

Anna Claire and her MeMe studied her Veggie Tales Bible the other night. Her MeMe told her that on the 7th day God rested. The next morning her MeMe asked Anna Claire what God did on the 7th day and Anna Claire responded with, "HE TOOK A NAP".

Anna Claire, what did God create? Butterflies, bugs, the stars, and little bitty baby bugs.

Anna Claire and her Uncle Josh were having a tea party the other day. Uncle Josh ate all of his "food" at the tea party and Anna Claire got upset about it and told him to go to time out. First, it is make believe food and second, do you think she gets put in time out very often? LOL!!

Last night she wanted some chocolate milk. I was going to go in the Kitchen and get her "yellow" milk and pretend it was chocolate milk, until she broke down on me and said, "Oh no the chocolate milk is at MeMe's" while tears streamed down her face. Needless to say, I walked across the yard and got her chocolate milk from MeMe's. The "yellow" milk is actually white milk, but it's in a yellow jug so Anna Claire calls it yellow milk.
