A white Christmas....kind of

Grandpa got Juliette a sled- which she loved to ride on inside the house. There was a little....really little, bit of snow still on the ground for Christmas so we loaded her onto it. We couldn't stay out long because she wouldn't keep her gloves on. Maybe it was because she did not want to let go of her little utensils from Aunt Mari!!


I think the spatula really completes the winter look, don't you?

Go Daddy!!











Opening Presents

Juliette had fun pulling things out of her gift bag. What was her favorite thing? A box of crayons!! She played with those all morning with her coloring book. The big Mickey Grandpa bought her last year got lots of hugs too.



It's Christmas!!!
A Mickey puzzle!

Crayons!!
Coloring with Daddy.



Loving Mickey...or choking the Christmas spirit out of him????

Christmas morning

When we got Juliette up for Christmas, she was not a happy camper. Mommy has a great picture though!!



Ready for Santa

We dressed Juliette up in her Minnie Mouse Santa pajamas Daddy got her and she was ready for bed. Of course Max had to be with her.







Xmas Eve Night

Not to break with tradition, Christmas Eve night was spent with the Olshefskis. Juliette had a blast with her present from Aunt Mari---kitchen utensils!! She kept running around with them from the living room to the dining room and back again, showing everyone what she got!



Lots

I didn't realize I took over a hundred pictures while we were in PA, obviously can't include them all, but here are a few. Let's start with Xmas Eve:

So we started with a nice brunch with my sister, niece, and nephew. Presents needed to be opened, but first, Juliette needed a muffin!







Aunt Dawn had some good cookies!!






Cousin Shane!

Cousin Paige- Juliette clung to her!

Back from break

We are back to work after a nice break. It felt long, but not long enough! I got very used to being home with Juliette again and she got used to sleepingin until 8:30! Well, so did her parents! This morning was a struggle getting her out of bed. She looked at us like "What the heck people???" Josh said it was payback :). I will be posting pictures soon of her Xmas, first time in a sled, and first haircut soon. Hopefully tonight.
