New Crib

So after 13 months of sleeping in a Pack and Play portable crib, we finally bought a crib for Amelia and baby number 2. We LOVE this crib. It converts into a toddler bed and a headboard and footboard later. I like the first picture because it shows how terrified she was the first few times she went in it (probably because it is twice the size and height as the pack and play). Now she loves her bed and tries to climb in it and when she's tired and if I try to rock her she will ask for her bed. That must be one comfortable mattress. Makes us feel bad she didn't have it sooner, but now is better than never. There's another picture of how it is now in her room. Once we know what the new baby is, I am going to decorate a little better and will send an update for all those who really care about that kind of stuff.

Amelia Reading us a Story

One of Amelia's Favorite Things

Christmas

I got so many fun books for Christmas. I love to read them. I got a special book from my grandma that is all about me. I like opening presents, but I don't like to be messy so I neatly rip the paper bit by bit and put it in a pile. I think it also makes Christmas last much much longer.

The Beach

Christmas eve we went to the beach and Santa Monica pier. I rode a carousel that went too fast for me and saw birds and dolphins and sea lions.

Weeeee!!!!

I went down the slide at the park all by myself for the first time.

Christmas Lights at the LA Temple

We went to the temple to see all the lights. I loved touching them and seeing the water fountains. I tried to give the spikey light balls a hug but it hurt my face.
