Merry Christmas!
Well here we are in Pennsylvania for the holidays once again. On the drive up her on Wednesday night Miss Juliette didn't sleep a wink and when we made it to Nana and Popop's house at midnight, she wanted to play! I'll be posting some pictures from Christmas Eve and today in the next few entries.

Bubble wrap!
Juliette discovered bubble wrap with the move. She couldn't quite get the hang of popping it with her fingers so she tried putting Josh's pound puppy on it. Nope. Then she figured out that if she jumped and ran on it, she could make it pop. That afternoon it sounded like a firing range at the house. A good time was had by all.
Her new room
Princess Tree
One of our few Christmas decorations in the new house--Juliette's pink princess tree. Every morning she asks to light it up and says it's awesome. She likes seeing Snow White and Ariel on the sides. Nana has been letting her hold the Snow White doll that is in the cabinet. She's pretty gentle with it and knows it's special. The house is coming along slowly but surely. There are two boxes at the top of the stairs that I just can't seem to get unpacked. I think I'll just leave them there until we move again.
Here we go again!

It's vacation time!!!! We are heading up to PA tonight in hopes that Miss Juliette will fall asleep. Haha yeah right. At least we won't have to stop for lunch or dinner. As long as she has a steady supply of movies and snacks it's all good. I figure we can watch The Little Mermaid--aka the tiny mermaid--Finding Nemo, Charlie Brown Christmas, Forsty, Frosty Returns, Rudolph, and Santa Claus is Coming to Town...that should get us through the night. Yippee.
Juliette was so excited to see the Christmas lights last night in neighborhoods around the new house. Some were pretty impressive, but not as great as Moosic Street up home. Pop Pop can't wait to take her to what everyone refers to as the Cop's House. We'll also head over to Nay Aug park and see their displays. I told Juliette Santa had left something at Pop Pop's house and what she thought it could be. first she said she didn't know, then she screamed It's Presents!!! She totally understands that is Santa's job.

It's Christmas time!
We have been very busy in the Long household recently with all the holidays rolling together into moving. We are officialy closed on the new house and the movers coming on Thursday. Juliette has kind of figured out something is going on because we've packed her tent in the living room and she is a little miffed about it. She had a great time over THanksgiving break playing with Pop Pop and Nana and NAna thankfully decided to stay and help with the move. This kid is so excited about Christmas and Santa it's not even funny. We took her to see Santa on Black Friday and she ran right up to him and loved on him and told him she loved him and all that stuff. I've got pictures to post from it. And yes my camera is still on the mend- still at Nikon with no end in sight. I;m seriously thinking about just going out and buying a cheap back up until this is done. We are doing so many fun holiday stuff and no camera is driving me nuts. Last Saturday we went to the Christmas parade in town and Juliette was waving to everyone screaming Merry Christmas! Too cute. She is in love with those old Christmas cartoons from the 60s, expecially Frosty the Snowman and Rudolph the Red Nosed Reindeer. Watching Rudolph as an adult is a little disturbing because I never noticed (Josh pointed it out) that Yukon Cornelius is packing a serious weapon on his belt on his way to the Island of Misfit Toys. What does he intend to do with the train with square wheels???
After the parade we went to our friend's house to take pictures and she had Santa there for the kids. When he came out and said Hello Juliette I thought she was going to pass out from happiness. She had her own private Santa time for about a half hour and flirted uncontrolably with the man in red. So with the parade and Santa what does she talk about all the way home? Watching our friend's dog pee on the bush outside as we were leaving. "Jake went potty outside! Jake pee on flowers!"
