As 2016 winds to a close, we have had a lot of fun with Little Sweetie as we prepare for Christmas and the new year!

     

As soon as Thanksgiving was over, it was time for the tree!  Loved having these two little elves help!

Got to have some special time with Santa at Baby Boot Camp!  We have lucked out this year that she's been pretty receptive to Santa!

The weather has continued to be crazy!  We have gone from shirtsleeves to coats and back within the course of a week!

     

Just when we get excited to wear a coat with a hat and (new!) mittens...

...the weather warms up again!

Little Sweetie has been having lots of fun with Big Brother too, which is good, because he'll soon be out of school for two weeks!  Momma's nervous, hoping that I can find appropriate activities for both of them so that they can play and have a good time together!

     

     

These two are in cahoots!  They will never look at the camera at the same time!

Bedtime story sweetness.

Height and Weight

Finally putting on a few pounds!  Up to 34 pounds and moving closer to 37 inches!

Personality

She's so happy and so fun!  She's been developing catch phrases lately...lots of "you've got it dude!" and "Awesomesauce!"  Also a lot of sweetness: I am getting so many "Momma, I love you" statements all day, sometimes multiple an hour.  With cuddles.  I won't lie; I eat it all up.  

Developmental Milestones

Verbal and fine motor are still progressing excellently.  And now I am seeing some great gross motor gains too!  She's riding her bike better and running longer distances at Run Club!

Knocking out laps at Run Club!

Fun Tidbits

We got to go visit Daddy's office this month.  Little Sweetie loved looking out his windows and seeing our usual places from a new angle.  Maybe one day she'll be an engineer too!

Future engineer at work!

We'll see you next year!
