Almost Christmas!

It's the most wonderful time of the year.... unless you have a baby getting 4 teeth at once.  Ugh.  Okay, it's still a great time of the year and we've had a fun time getting ready for Christmas, but poor Miss Aberly has been having a rough time this past week.  Luckily two have broken through and the eye teeth are almost through. 

Since I just realized I don't have our most recent pictures uploaded yet, I'll summarize the last month.  It was an exciting one! 

First, Miss Aberly turned one on November 21st!  We had a drop in party for friends and family with snacks and mini-cupcakes.  Aberly was a bit overwhelmed by it all but warmed up after a while.  She wasn't interested in her gifts at all, so mom and dad took care of them for her.

Thanksgiving was right after Aberly's birthday.  We packed up and headed to the valley for a Johnson family get together.  The trip started out rough with Aberly catching a bug (all of us eventually) and not feeling well, but Thanksgiving day itself was great.  We got to see relatives we hadn't seen in quite some time.  This picture is of Aberly with my cousin Melinda's kids.  None of them were in the mood for a group shot!

The rest of our trip was spent with my parents and Andrew who was home from college in New York.  Colin and I had a great afternoon out wine tasting while my parents watched Aberly.

Our last event of the trip was visiting Colin's grandmother Diane in Albany.  Aberly loved going up and down her stairs.

Since then, we've been gearing up for Christmas.  The snow has been falling.  Aberly isn't sure about playing in the snow since she has a hard time getting around. 

 
Aberly still loves her bath time.  The second picture is of her trying to get in the tub.  She does this most nights.  Patience is not her strength!
