Ho Ho Ho and other Happenings

I had to post this pic of the girls and Santa. I love it. They are all looking at the camera. Well ok, facing it. We took the girls to the newgate mall the other day. They have such a awesome indoor play area. Its a favorite of mine during the winter when it is to cold for the park. Santa was there, right outside the play area. Emma was actually more excited to see the life size snowman and Rudolph. Anyway, Em ran right up and sat on Santa's lap. In the car I had been asking her what she was going to ask Santa for (a horse, of course) but she forgot and was content to just snuggle into his lap and show him her necklace. On that note Emma is becoming such a girly girl. Its so funny to me. Every morning after brushing her teeth she fixes her hair, puts her necklaces on and then rifles in my makeup drawer and pulls out some lip gloss to smother on her little lips, or Ip Gloss as she calls it. So while we were at the mall Emma pushed Ali around in the stroller. It took forever and Em ran into a few displays but she was so proud pushing around her baby. It kills me how patient Ali is. She just sat there looking around happily as she was jostled about.

This is a pic of Emma at her very first movie in the theatre. I am huge on firsts can ya tell. That's why my girls' baby scrapbooks are bursting. My parents were so sweet and bought tickets for my whole family to go see Alvin and the Chipmunks yesterday. It was so much fun. I was able to sit and gossip with Tyler for awhile hehe. Anyway Em didn't weigh enough to hold the seat down and it kept folding up on her. Ali was so good. I was worried about taking the two to a movie but they were awesome! Thanks mom and dad for such a fun day of shopping, skiing (check out Dave's blog) and movies!
