Bailee at 2 1/2

As you can tell, Bailee is a child with a personality. She has changed a lot lately, and is very cute. She just went to Play House Disney last weekend, which she only enjoyed for a 1/2 hour. She grabbed the diaper bag and said "Lets go home." Maybe next year she will like it more. Also, that picture of her in that dress is from Christmas. Good thing I took that picture because she ripped it five minutes later. And that necklace she is wearing has a picture of Ariel on it. She loves her, and pretends to talk to her on the phone "Hey mom, its 'A hole" on the phone." I laughed so hard because she can't pronounce Ariel correctly." The only thing she likes to wear is dresses...every single day!! Her favorite thing to play is "dragon". She made it up, and requests that Jake and I be the dragon and chase her. She is talking so well, and says the most hilarious things. She is always saying "come on sis, lets play." She is also very polite, and thinks that if she says please a million times that we will give in and give her what she wants:) It works!! She is also very sweet to me. Everytime that I get ready (not very often) she looks at me and says "Beautiful mom...cute shirt!" "Where is your pajamas and glasses?" I love her, and am sad she is growing up so fast.
P.S I know some of you might notice, but in Bailee's close up, you will notice yellow stuff coming out of her ear. I can assure you it is not ear wax, it was from her ear infection draining and she would not let me touch it. I just don't want you to think I don't clean her ears:)

Backpacks!

The girls love these Dora backpacks! They carry them around all the time. Bailee likes to pretend she is going to school. She waves goodbye to me and Sadie "Bye mom, bye Sis." Then she laughs because she is only kidding:)

Some Winter Fun

The girls didn't go out much this year in the cold, but when they did, they had a lot of fun. I laughed so hard when I saw Sadie in her snow clothes. She reminded me of the little boy on the Christmas Story who would fall over in his snow clothes and have to have someone get him up. That was exactly Sadie. And Bailee does not like to smile for the camera these days. Silly child:)

Christmas

Christmas was so much fun this year because Bailee was so excited when she saw that Santa came. I had to buy double of everything, because they fight over everything. The cutest gift I got them was backpacks. They are hilarious! They wear them all the time! They love their chairs as you can see. I thought it was hilarious to see Bailee crossing her legs in her chair. One very fun gift that they got this year, was from my parents. They made a scavenger hunt for the grand kids to go on. Each place they went had a piece to a puzzle. When they put the puzzle together, it announced that my parents are taking everyone to Disneyland in February. What a fun gift! The kids will love it! It was such a fun christmas this year, and it was mostly fun to watch the excitement on the girls faces! The only downfall of the holidays, is that Bailee had a high fever of 104. She was so sick for days. Thankfully, she is all better!

Christmas Eve

We spent Christmas Eve at my parents. The girls were eager to open a gift as you can see. We had dinner, and then my parents gave us a new Christmas book that came with the cutest movie about Christmas, that we watched that night. Afterwards, Bailee started getting a high fever and not acting herself. Little did we know how sick she was going to get, it was really sad.

Christmas Party

To start off, my tree looks horrible behind Bailee because the girls sat and broke most of the ornaments. So I just had to put a few children ornaments up. One day I will have a nice tree:) Anyhow, these pictures were taken at the Parson party. Jake's mom went far out this year. She made the girls a darling quilt, with matching bag to go with it. She made us girls an adorable apron, and then gave us each a cook book where she hand wrote all of her recipes. It was such a neat gift. We appreciate all the time she spent making all of those gifts so special.
