Happy Birthday Grandma!

Happy Birthday Grandma Christina! We love you so much. Sorry we couldn't stay long for dinner, but we will hang out longer soon! Yesterday we went to the Foothills Mall and the girls got to play on the playground!

Bellah had a grumpy day, but she had a little happy moment that Mommy caught on camera!

Adonia had so much fun at the playground and walking around the mall. She was so tired afterwards.

Adonia having fun !Adonia and Bellah playing with each other in the tunnel. They had such a good time crawling and walking all over the big obstacles. Before we left they got to ride on the train (?? not quite sure what it is) but Adonia had a good time. Bellah was crying the whole time because she was tired.

Adonia trying to grow up too fast. She kept trying to go in this store. I think is was because they had stuffed animals through the whole store.

YEEEE HAAAW!!!!

Thank you so much Nana for our ponies you got the girls for Christmas! They absolutely love them!

Bellah didn't want to get off of her pony, but Little Miss Adonia really wanted to play with her cheerio container.

Time to try the other pony. Its so cute because she really tries to rock it all by herself. I would have recorded a video but I didn't want her falling while I was taping.
At first she didn't notice I was staring at her...taking pictures..

AHhhh!! Mommy is going to get me!!!

RUUUUNNNN!

She loves it when I chase after her!

Time to go to bed!We love you Daddy..and everyone

More Birthday Fun ~ from Grandma Christina's camera!!!

Grandma Tracy & Grandpa John made me and Bellah special cakes for our 1st Birthday so we could dig in and have fun!

They also made us the most spectacular Princess cake anyone could have ever made to share with all of our guests!

We were so excited to have Mommy and Daddy help us blow out our candles! We had lots of friends and family around to share in the excitement!

Bellah didn't know what to do at first but once Grandma Christina rolled up her sleeves and she tasted the "yummy goodness" there was no stopping her.


Daddy helped me get started...I like to take a little more time and consideration when eating my 1st b-day cake. Boy was it delicious!

Nap time at Tia Dezeree's house!

New Family, new traditions

Mommy & Daddy bundled us up and told us they were taking us somewhere special...Both Bellah and I had no idea what they had in store, but it didn't matter...we knew what ever it was it was sure to be a treat!

We wound up at this wonderful destination called, Winterhaven. Daddy told us to hold on to our hats because we were in store for lots of fun and excitement! Boy was he right, this place called, Winterhaven was decorated with tons of different Christmas lights, people were singing Christmas carols and Mommy made a batch of yummy hot chocolate!

During our walk Mommy and Daddy told us about how visiting this place has been a Tucson tradition for many families for over 50 years. Mommy and Daddy have been coming here together for the past two years and now visiting here will be our family tradition.

Grandma told Bellah about another Christmas tradition, "kissing under the mistletoe". She warned both Bellah and I(quite adamantly) to stay far away from the mistletoe. She mentioned something about how it would stunt our growth or something like that. Bellah and I both decided we wouldn't take any chances! Don't worry Grandma, we promise (wink, wink) to stay far away from the tradition of, "kissing under the mistletoe".

This house was decorated with lots of lights and cute winter characters. There was a train taking gifts to all the good little girls and boys; Bellah and I are pretty sure we made the list this year!

Cousin Mason and Tia Michelle came with us to visit Winterhaven. It was so much fun!

Mommy held me for some of our walk. She held Bellah too, but I don't think we got a picture of that!

This house won the, "mailman's award" because it had the best decorated mailbox. It was really a sight to see!

We decided next year, we may take the mule drawn carriage (and possibly start another tradition).

Happy Holidays to all our friends and family! We love you!
