Christmas in Seattle

We had a nice Christmas. We spent Christmas in West Seattle with Sean's family. There was a lot of sweets, presents, family, and fun. Diana had a wonderful time running and jumping around with cousin Chloe.

Santa and such

We have had an eventful weekend.

On Saturday morning we went to Visit Santa Tony. Diana gave him her pacifier. She had been asking for red ice cream and a red cone. When she woke up from her nap Santa had delivered a red tricycle. She has been doing well without her pacifier. (knock on wood) She has been a big trooper considering she got sick Saturday night and was up all night. She is on her way to feeling better.

Diana wanted to write on some of the holiday cards.

On a few she decided to write her name.

"A" "D"

Diana has been showing interest in writing her name.

Diana tried on Chloe's flower girl dress.

She told us she was doing ballet moves

On Saturday we went to visit Santa Tony (A friend of Sean's family).

Colleen joined us.

Diana was a bit unsure about sitting on his lap.

She did go right up and give him her pacifier.
