Colorado or Bust!

Isbelle can not wait to go to Colorado. She talks about it all day nonstop. She talks about how she will get to wear her coap (coat!) and hat, see the Mountains and snow. I am not to sure she really knows what snow or the mountains are but she talks about it allllllllllllll the time! Last night she told me she was going to bring her bucket for the sand...again not sure she is 100% sure where we are going! My favorite is if you ask how we are getting there she says...."two looooooooooooooooong days in the car" again not sure she know what that means either. These are the pics of her wearing her coap and hat day the other day. I know it looks like a dress on her but its a coat! Also we have matching boots which she thinks is great too. Only a few short days and we will be there...Can't wait!

Just to clarify......

Last night I went to buy some new boots to take to CO and when I was leaving I told Isabelle where I was going. Now today she is walking around saying....Mommy got new boobs!!!!!!!!!!!!!! So if she tells you this and you know she will at some random point months from now...I got BOOTS!

Have I mentioned we are potty training! One day I told Isabelle I would give her a candy if she went potty. And that was that. She has only had a couple accidents (one when I put her in time out...she knew what she was doing!) and even goes at school and when we are out!!!! But I still think I like diapers better..sorry its the truth! Public restrooms are nasty!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! The only problem is Isabelle has learned how to manipulate the potty system. Lets just say she get the most candy possible in a day :)

These are some cute pics of my girls and their daddy! Eliza hates the flash if you can't tell!

Isabelle has her Christmas party at school today. It was lots of fun cookies, juice, and crackers...her dream come true! Eliza even dressed up for the occasion :)

We got to have Breakfast with Santa the other day at our neighborhood clubhouse. You would not believe all the people that turn out to see Santa. I love the picture of them on Santas lap...Eliza wouldn't stop rubbing her head on Santas beard!!!! Even Isabelle was trying to get her to stop! We ate pancakes, decorated cookies, and Isabelle even had her face painted for the first time! She wasn't to sure about Santa at the begining of the Christmas season..but now she is a big fan!

A few weekends ago we went to a parade in Market Street with some friends. It was great fun... it was a parade of just horses and ponies pulling carriages and wagons all decorated with lights!

My Eliza is a big girl now! Shes a little over seven months old and as of today was 17lbs 13oz! So with her being that big its officially time to move to the big girl car seat! No crawling yet..unless backwards counts. She tries to pus up on all fours but only moves herself backwards. Its fun to watch as she moves farther and farther away from what she is trying to get...but she doesn't find it very funny! She has two big shiny bottom teeth and is working on a top one! She such a good sitter up we have let her just sit in the bathtub for her baths the past few nights! And let me tell you...she loves bath time! She is also very into screaming...all day and even better if your feeding her! She did come down with RSV of course but did really well with it. She has a cold now....lets just hope it clears before or Co trip!!! Oh and we had her baptized over Thanksgiving...it was very last min so it was a very small event but big for us. The thing is that she was so last min (we didn't know is she would be well or not) that he name wasn't in the bulletin and we have never received her baptism paperwork...so I am afraid even the church doesn't know she was baptized...so we may have to have a redo...can you do that?????
