Update

Life has been pretty hectic these days....but that's nothing new. I thought for sure during Christmas Break I'd find time to post some long overdo pictures of my adorable little girl....but somehow time slipped away and here I am back to the grind of school again. 23 weeks to go and I'm done!! Yahoo! So tired of school!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! So yeah back to my cute little girl. Here is a video of her from tonight, she just started doing this in the last few days....so cute!

Christmas was great! We celebrated Christmas Eve with my family which was chaos, with kids running everywhere and 25+ people in the house, but that's Christmas with my family and I wouldn't have it any other way. Dustin BBQed the prime rib as is customary since he's been in the family and is the king of the BBQ. Then Christmas day we had at our house. It was nice and low key. People came to us this year, we had Dustin's parent and mine over as well. I had fun decorating the house, although I kept it simple since we have limited space. I also enjoyed finally getting out some more of my china.

I made omelets for breakfast, I just discovered that I could make them this year, Dustin insists I've been holding out on him our whole marriage...but apparently all those years of working in a restaurant and watching gave me the skill. Dustin grilled tri-tip steaks in this amazing marinade for lunch/dinner. Yummy! I love that he can cook and enjoys doing it.

Lily was an absolute ham. She loved ripping the paper off of her gifts, although she just wanted to eat it. We got some great video of it. Thankfully Aunt Misty wrapped Lily's gifts in a foil wrapping paper which Lily thoroughly enjoyed the crinkling sound it made and that she was allowed to chew on it since it didn't get soggy.She was even willing to put up with wearing a santa hat
I have a cute Christmas dress for her but I haven't actually put it on her yet....yeah yeah I know it was supposed to be for Christmas but I actually bought it for pictures....which I still haven't gotten around to doing quite yet....who can fit all this stuff in? Soon though...I promise. I actually had to buy her two dresses because the first one turned into a long shirt because she had a huge growth spurt.....plus I bought it in November thinking I was planning ahead....nice.

More Pictures to come.....
