Ellery at the desk--Anthony bought this desk at a garage sale, and Ellery likes to climb up in it. She likes it even more when we give her something to write with. Doubt she will like doing her homework that much when she eventually has some!

Rocking around the Christmas tree...well since Christmas is over and the tree is down, we actually thought we would get out the rocking horse for Ellery. She isn't "hooked" like Elan was, but she has had some happy moments on the horse. I think when she can get on and off easier that she will like it even more.

Snow in Georgia! Last Thursday, the day after Ellery was 15 months old, we saw some snow. She had seen snow in KY, but this was at home, and she knew what it would be like this time. We enjoyed walking outside and exploring a little. It may be a few years before we see this again at our house!

New Year's Eve--we didn't have anything special to do for new year's eve so for family fun we had the kids get in our bathtub. It was hard to get a good picture, but they really enjoyed it.

A visit with our KY friends, the Kalanys, was fun for all. We took a few pics. Since we only see them about once a year, the kids will have changed a bunch by our next visit. Maybe in the summer...we hope!

Christmas Day continued...Ellery got a shirt from Tia Kate that is from Uncle Brad's hockey team so we captured a few pics of that gift. She was sitting on the stairs with Lito in a cute picture, but the moment passed before I got the best shot. Her favorite thing to do these days is cling to mommy so we had to capture that.

Christmas Eve and Christmas morning--Ellery also opened one gift on Christmas Eve. It was a fun barn from Noni and Lito. We didn't get many pictures of her on Christmas day because she napped when everyone else opened presents, and she really wasn't too interested in her presents. Plus I had misplaced my camera and couldn't find it when she saw her cart from Santa. She got three presents from Santa, just like baby Jesus. She definitely liked pushing her shopping cart around.
