it has been so long since we have done a blog update and just as long since mommy has downloaded pictures. we haven’t been taking a whole lot of pictures since we have been busy packing up to move this weekend! we sold our house and are very excited to settle into our rental house and start the building process on our land.
CONGRATS to the iowa hawkeyes for winning the orange bowl last night and for having a very exciting and successful season! we could not be prouder of our team! i didn’t get to watch the game since it was past my bedtime, but mommy let me watch the highlights on sportscenter this morning. way to go, hawks!!!
when i last posted, it was christmas eve so let’s take a journey back in time! we had a nice evening starting with mass, then home for chili, pumpkin pie and egg nog (for daddy). i got to open one present that night from mommy and daddy (some new books) and we also got baby jesus and put him in the manger of my little people nativity. i baked some chocolate cookies for santa and left only one for him on a plate with some milk. i was very excited to get to bed so i could wake up the next morning to see if santa had visited our house.
christmas morning i decided to sleep in! mommy and daddy had to wake me up and i’m sure that will be the last time that will happen on christmas morning until i’m a teenager. i will be doing the waking for several years to come! i got lots of great gifts from santa including a fisher price computer cool school, a kiddie camera and a cash register. i also got a tea set, a pretty sweatshirt, a clock puzzle and a tinkerbell t-shirt.
while we were sleeping on christmas eve, we had a terrible ice storm. we lost a few tree limbs at our house but were very lucky it wasn’t worse. our street got pretty ugly with limbs blocking the road. we lost power and water right after we opened presents and didn’t get it back until monday. we stayed in a hotel on friday night and got chinese take-out for dinner (fa ra ra ra raaaa) and i got to watch a mickey mouse christmas movie that was on the disney channel.
