December Fun

 I decided I better post tonight because tomorrow should probably have a post all of its own!  We have been in heaven this last week.  I didn't have to work this week and Jeff only had to work two days.  If only we had this much time as a family all the time!  I don't work next week and Jeff only has to work two days again so we are just hoping next week passes slower than this week!

Anyway, we took Heidi back to see Santa.  Just as we suspected, she hated him.  We couldn't even get a picture of her alone with him because she was shaking so badly and grabbing onto me for dear life.
 We were lucky to finally get some snow a few days ago.  I was worried we weren't going to have a white Christmas.  Heidi loves being outside even in the cold.  She stands by the garage door and says, "brrr".  If she even hears the word 'outside' or 'cold' she says, "brrrr" repeatedly.  It is so cute.  We took her outside to play in the snow for a little bit and she enjoyed getting a little fresh air.  We need to get some more snow so we can get some sledding in.
Heidi's little snowman...or as she says, "man man".
We have also been enjoying the Christmas lights this year.  We have been taking Heidi out to look at them every night that Jeff is home.  If we try to give her a bath before we go she stands by the garage door and starts crying.  It is so funny.  The whole time we are out she says, "WOW!  Ligh!  Cool!  Man Man (snowman)!  Oh oh oh (ho ho ho)!"  I'm not sure what we are going to do when all the lights are gone.  We will have one sad little girl.  I cannot even believe how much more fun the holidays are with little ones.  We feel so blessed to have our little Heidi and can't wait to see her joy tomorrow morning!

Merry Christmas!
