Granny's Visiting!

We all like to participate in tummy time so I thought I would try to take pictures like that...did not work too well, maybe when Lydia is a little stronger :)


I love Ross!  These little flatbed trucks with a car are a favorite every time we go through a toy section in any store but they are always a little pricey.  Thanks to Ross and $3.99 clearance!  The slippers were too cute to pass up too!


My favorite outfit right now, or should I say Mommy's favorite outfit right now :) 


Christmas tree shopping!  Granny's first day here!!  So much fun!

Just the right size!


Look what Santa left in my stocking!! :)


Decorating the Christmas tree, Julius liked our Harry Potter ornament!  It's the gargoyle entrance to Professor Dumbledore's office and Professor McGonnagal's voice says, "Professor Dumbledore will be waiting for you, Sherbert Lemon."


We celebrated Julius's 2nd Birthday with a Polar Express party!  Mommy really enjoyed making the cake, even if it took until 2am! :)


Julius had his friends, Josiah, Dylan, Nathan and Mikey over to celebrate with us.  


We decorated gingerbread houses.

We had lunch then cake, I promise :)

And he loved all of his presents!!

Granny and Lydia enjoyed the party too!  Actually, Lydia slept through most of the party! Her friends Caroline and Abby had fun though!

Working on the railroad!


Noisy toys are so much fun!


We took Granny to Seattle!!  This is a Christmas Train Village that is set up each year in the Seattle City Center building.  Julius loved having lunch and watching the train make its way around the city!


Mommy made Lydia a gingerbread house too!


Our one picture of Granny in Seattle with us...because I forgot my camera card and she forgot her camera :( But we had a great time visiting the City Center and Pike's Place Market!  Especially enjoyed our lunch at the Pizza Haven because the manager was kind enough to come looking for us when they realized they had charged us an extra $10 and he wanted to give it back to us!!  I need to pay more attention too!!
We are loving every minute of Granny's visit!!  Many more pics to come!
