Christmas party

We had our annual Christmas party at church. Tori loved running all around, eating yummy treats, seeing Mrs. Claus, and Snow White.

Yesterday before the Christmas party we stopped by Mimmy's house. Tori managed to revert back to her baby days and snuck in the baby seat when we weren't looking.
I turned on Peter Pan the other day for her and found her wrapped up in her Cinderella sleeping bag. Thanks Emma Cate!

Birthday Week!

We had such a fun birthday week. What 2 year old does not love a week full of birthday cake and presents!?! We went to story time at Davis Kidd with Julie and Libby. We ate lunch with Keeley, Braden, Amanda, Emma Cate, and Will. Then, we had dinner with the family at home.
She loves her new tinkerbell pajamas and Minnie Mouse high heeled dress shoes. She would not take a nap yesterday without them on.
She got a Minnie Mouse piggy bank to start saving money to buy something next time she goes to Disney World.

Playing with the Mister Potato Head toys with Paw Paw.

The girl loves birthday cake!


I'm so glad the twins got to come to their first birthday party! I can't believe they are over a month old.

She is reading a Dora book that is a story of Tori and Dora with Tori's pictures and fun facts about her all through the book!


Will, Emma Cate, Tori, and Braden. Braden is doing great! I am sure he is anxious for his brother to be with him...hopefully soon!
Say cheese!

Happy Birthday Tori!

Happy 2nd birthday! It's hard to believe she is already 2! I sent cupcakes to school yesterday, but I don't think the mom's are going to be very happy with me:) We opened a few presents (ladybug tea set, Belle doll, and a wooden puzzle) this morning.


Tori loves:
ANYTHING Disney including Disney World. She is already asking to go again for the 4th time!
Wooden puzzles
To draw...she will sit and draw with a pen for an hour
Anything Dora
Disney movies
To dance
Baby dolls
To go night night with Baby, Bambi, and Blanket
To talk
To play on playgrounds
Babies
Books
To wear dress up shoes around the house
To eat cake, pretzels, puffs (yes she is too old), animal crackers
She weighs 26 1/2 lbs. and is 33 inches long. Tori has been such a blessing to us over the last two years. We can't imagine our lives without her. Happy Birthday!

Thanksgiving weekend

We had a great Thanksgiving weekend. It was nice to spend it with both our families. We went to Bryan's parents for brunch, then my parent's house for dinner. We spent Saturday decorating for Christmas.

Here is Tori standing by her new Disney tree. She wanted to play with all the ornaments rather than hang them on the tree. She named each one for us and told me where to hang them. She loves to look at the 'little girls' on the Small World ornament and loves to play the song.

This is the only picture I took at my parent's house. I am so sad I didn't take one with everyone.
This was Tori during part of my decorating weekend. Such a big helper.

Here are the girls. It was nice to spend time with them this weekend. Macey, Madison.

Tori went on a walk with the girls and Uncle Jeff, Nenny, and Uncle D.

Here we are eating a yummy brunch.
