My Little Ballerina

It's ok to laugh..... Erica got this ballerina outfit from her Aunt Janet. Whoever made this, as my mom pointed out, made a big mistake. They sewed under the tu-tu so instead of hanging down it sticks up. She LOVES this outfit and had it on everyday for about a week, not all day though. Now I just need to convince her that her sneakers are not the proper shoes to wear with it.

Aidan likes to sit at my vanity and fix his hair like mommy does. He'll also get into the drawers and pull out my deodorant and perfume and 'put them on'. we make sure he keeps the lids on and try to remind him that my perfume is a girl smell and he is a boy. So he goes and gets daddy's deodorant and tries to put that on.

New outfit!

This very cute outfit came from Uncle Sam and Aunt Laura. It's a 3mo size; I though she would be "swimming" in it (not so as you can see). A quick wash this morning and I decided to go ahead and put it on her for the Jones Family Christmas hoop-la. She was the hit of the party, until the other newest addition came, so they shared the title. But isn't this dress just so dag-gone cute?!
She really wasn't up for the pictures, but I made her sit up and she wasn't a huge fan of that. She really just wanted to lay down and go back to sleep.
Looking ever so thoughtful... or just wondering if filling her diaper like this would make it leak out the sides.

Santa Baby

This would have been a picture with all the kids but Aidan was having issues. Dad took him over to Santa (being played by a family friend) and as soon as they were close enough to touch Aidan pulled a Christmas story move. He screamed and cried and had a death grip around grandpa's neck. Aidan likes the idea of Santa and the pictures and movies.... just not the real thing yet.

This was the first year Erica wanted to sit on his lap. Before she was always a bit unsure. But she ran to the room and waited her turn, then jumped on his lap when she could.

Our Tree

Dad brought over our christmas tree and helped set it up for us. Mom helped with the lights. Erica ans Aidan "helped" with the decorating.... can you see the 'L' shape of ornament placement? Well because I forgot to put up the silver garland I figured I could "fix" things a bit when they went to bed.

This is what I did. You can't see a lot of the ornaments cause I put some in the tree. But when Erica got up the next day and saw the tree she said "who messed up our tree?!" I guess there is no more fooling her. I told her maybe some big elf came along and "messed" it up. She was fine with that answer.

Our tree with the pretty lights on. My favorite thing to do is turn all the lights off and turn the tree on and just sit like that at night. All the lights reflecting off the tinsel, ornaments and wall... very pretty!

Sofia Alexandra Webb

Here is the short story: went into labor (new concept for me) thursday night around 6ish, didn't know it until 12:45am on friday. Started to time the contractions, they were 1-3min apart. Called the doc, she said come in; called up parents and they came rushing over. Got the the hospital and in my room by 3:30am, got some kind of drug to ease the pain sometime later, by 7:30 am I had the doc and nurses runnin around, she was born by 8:04am December 5 2008.

Her stats: 9 lbs 0.7 oz (biggest grand-baby to date on my side), 20 1/2" long, and her head was 13 3/4". She felt big but she really doesn't look all that big does she...

I love this one.

A nice big yawn. I love the fact that she will be sleeping for most of the day and night. It will make my job a bit easier.


These next two are really cute. She hasn't started to suck her thumb yet, but she did suck on some of her fingers at the hospital.
