have a 'rockin' christmas..

i know this gal sure plans to...

just heavenly!

i'm sure a lot of you out there follow that sweet lil 'nie's blog.{see under "loves it" sidebar if you dont.} i'm telling you the truth i just totally gasped when i saw this creative goodness. not quite sure i'll pull it together in time for this year..but mark my words, come holiday season 2011, im sooooo stealing this idea! how sweet is this? l-o-v-e!

my favorite part of the day...

this time of the year is...

2010 christmas card.

mini-me?

so i'm gonna be honest, people have told me my daughter resembles me...i've never really seen it. they make comments, such as "i can't believe she doesn't have really blonde hair"... & i think to myself "ha, hope they don't check out these roots." anyways, liv was at my mom's helping her decorate the "kid tree" aka the tree with all the ornaments my brother and i made from preschool on.. so sweet, mom. liv picks up an ornament that obviously one of our many dogs we've had in our lifetime had gotten a hold of... and proclaims, "wook! it's wiv!" (don't judge, she can't pronounce her "L's" yet.) no wittle miss wiv, that would be your momma, at about age 3..

what do you think? do you see why my dad calls her "little-erin"?

sweet and petite.

finally had liv's "two and a half" well visit today.. her original appointment was scheduled the morning we ended up in the emergency room getting stitches in our brow. oops. anyways, here's the stats. she's healthy and growing a.o.k. 26.5 lbs. 34.5 inches tall. ( i think..i left her sheet sitting on the exam table, just call me supermom.) anyways, she's pretty much just a petite lil bundle of perfection. hope you're enjoying the hustle and bustle of this fun-filled month!

happy december!

december is here, & on this snowy evening... yes, its snowing. i'd like to share a few holiday wintery inspirational images that i've stumbled upon that make me happy. also, take any little ones in your life to go see "tangled." such a cute flick. seriously. liv didn't move through the whole thing. oh, and do 3d glasses really effect your kids vision if they wear them too young? or is that just an old wives tale?
