Let it snow, Let it snow, Let it snow!!!




We are SO excited each time we see snow! Today Maja actually got to go outside and play in it! It wasn't too cold out today, so we got out there and got to see her explore! She loved being able to play outside, even though it was chilly out! You should have seen her trying to walk through the big piles of snow with her boots on...it was so cute. She did such a great job tromping around, a little trooper! She actually just loved being outside and free to run around and play! Usually when there is snow that means daddy isn't home, but today he got to take a break from plowing and come home to play for a little bit! Winter and being stuck inside all the time get's hard on a 16 month old! Lucy and her enjoyed the fun time outside!

Oh Christmas Tree, Oh Christmas Tree...




Well, this year we continuted our Christmas Tree tradition with our good friend's the Eddy's (Mark, Bridget, Lauren and Ryan) and went to get our Christmas tree's together! Not only do we bundle the kids up and head out...but we cut down our own tree's too! Maja was going to help Pete cut the tree down, but once she got close to the tree she had a change of heart! Even though...this year Maja and Lucy picked out a great tree, I forget what kind it is...a Balsam Fir, something soft to the touch!? So, we picked out our tree's and then went back to the Eddy's and had pizza! Such a fun night, one of our favorite traditions! :)

Maja is a social butterfly!







Maja is loving to play with her friends lately! It is so fun to watch her interact with other little cuties! This is Maja and her "baby Evelina" our neighbor. Maja is fascinated with her and loves to play with her...mostly all of her baby things! She gives her kisses and is just starting to learn to share! Somedays are better than others, but this day Evelina was over playing and Maja did a pretty good job sharing her piano! They were so cute! Evelina's mom and dad (Lauren and Nate) are some of the best neighbors anyone could ask for...we are so lucky to have them and little Evelina next door! They all have become very good friends. As you can see they also have Lucy's best friend nextdoor as well...Scruffy and Lucy are two pea's in a pod! It is such a blessing to have great friends as neighbors as well! :)
