This week...

Sunday night 10 minutes before bedtime this is what I found....Ollie was zonked out! He had a busy weekend.

Monday night we had dinner at Maw Maw's house. Ollie was the only one with a stocking present. I think he felt bad for me. He told me later that maybe I would have a present tomorrow. What a sweetheart!

Tuesday we had leftovers at Aunt Erin's. She had a lot of food left from Ivy's baptism. Ollie was getting some giggles out of Ivy by running and falling down in front of her.


Ollie got a giant pencil in his stocking and it works real well homework - it is a good writing pencil!

Tonight we went to Bass Pro to see Santa Claus! We only had to wait about 20 minutes. Ollie made sure to tell Santa all the things he wanted. Especially the toys he saw at Toys R Us last night.

Of course we had to hang out and play with the guns and targets they have.

After Santa we had dinner at El Maguey and saw the magic man. Then we went to Wal-Mart to pick up a few things for Daddy's birthday tomorrow. All that and we made it home around 8pm. Man we are good!

Ivy's Baptism Weekend

What a big weekend! Saturday morning we met at Maw Maw's house for breakfast. Everyone had a stocking present - even Ivy! She got a pink hat that is a bit small for her big head!

Then we tried her baptism dress on her. Erin did a great job! Afterwards Erin and I got some shopping done while Maw Maw & Papa Stu watched Ollie.

Sunday was the big day! Ivy did very well. She just let out a few squeals during the service.

After Church we went back to Ivy's for a party! Ivy started it off by having her cereal!

Where did Ivy go?

She wanted to sit up on her own and read her cards like a big girl!

Ollie got to help her open our present!

The cake was supposed to be chocolate with white icing. Oh well it turned out fine and it was very tasty with all the chocolate!

Ollie is ready for cake!

Stocking Stuffers

Tuesday morning Ollie had another stocking stuffer! He was so excited to open it. The night before he got M&M chapstick out of his stocking at Maw Maw's house. When he saw this present he said "maybe it's a BIG M&M stick"!

Nope! It's a Christmas shirt - it says "It's all fun & games until Santa finds out!"

Wednesday evening we had dinner at our house. Aunt Erin went to Costco and we gave Ivy a bath and put her jammies on. Then she watched Wheel of Fortune with Maw Maw. She likes the colors. Ollie used to love that show!

Batman Curtain!

The Superhero playroom is finally complete! I was going to help my mom make this curtain when she was done with the dresses for Ivy. However, Papa Stu made the curtain (with Maw Maw's guidance)! It looks great. Thank you Papa Stu!
