January Happenings

Happy New Year Everyone!


I thought I would share just a few things that Caroline has been up to this January.

As you will see in the pics below she has been quite busy. Being cooped up in the house, because it has been too cold to go out, sparks a lot of creativity!

Oh, and by the way, we've also added a new word to our vocabulary..."hoop-a-loop", that stands for hula-hoop if you were wondering. And no, we don't actually have a hula-hoop, again creativity is key. Caroline took a scrap piece from one of the last boxes that we have in the house and made herself a "hoop-a-loop." Here's to thinking outside of the box! Ha! Ha!


Enjoy! Here's to 2010!

Love,
Caroline's Mommy



I think someone was having a little too much fun...look at that smile. And yes, the marker comes off quite nicely! Thank Goodness.

Did you eat blueberries or is that marker all over your mouth...yep...marker!

And more...look Mommy!



On to another project...yes, that's my little girly girl helping Daddy fix the toilet paper holder!


She's working hard...



yah...I did it! Daddy's little helper for sure!


Notice the screwdriver that is sticking out of the wall...while Caroline collects all of the parts for her project.


And now...the Ponytail project...well, that was actually Mommy's project.

The Ponytail shot.

And now the side view...

And another...look at that face...I think she was tired of modeling her new ponytail, but Mommy was so excited that her little girl could now sport a ponytail! ;~)















Merry Christmas - 2009

Merry Christmas everyone! I hope everyone had a wonderful holiday season!
We had lots of fun spending our holidays with our families. As you can see by all the pics, we were busy traveling from house to house to celebrate with everyone.
It was so much fun to see Caroline opening ALL of her gifts from Santa & family. She had an exciting Christmas Eve and Christmas day!
So, sit back and relax and enjoy the MANY pictures that we captured over the holidays!
Love,
Caroline's Mommy

And more presents...

Caroline dressed up in her Cousin Bella's Snuggie! It's a little big for her! ;`)
Cousin Allie had to put on her footie pajamas that she wore for Pajama Day at school, so she could match Caroline...Caroline LOVED IT!

So sweet...Caroline fell asleep on Cousin Bella...everyone was snuggled up ready for Santa to come!


Even Mattie was snuggled up with the presents under the tree!


CHRISTMAS MORNING...What did Santa Bring Caroline?

Here's my stocking...

Caroline is concentrating hard on pulling her gifts out of her stocking.

Mommy help me!

Wow, look...Santa brought me my very own kitchen...coffee anyone?

Look at me...I'm ready to cook!

Here's a pic of Caroline's opened presents on Christmas morning...Thank you Santa!

After Breakfast with the Wilders we were off to Pops & Grandma B's house for our Christmas with the Battens.


Caroline couldn't wait to open her Santa Bag...notice she hadn't even taken her coat off yet...she LOVES presents!


Caroline dressed in her new Dora Scarf, Butterfly Wings, Magic Wand, and Pixie Dust Basket...waiting to turn someone into a Bunny Rabbit...

One of Caroline's favorites...M&M's or M's as she calls them!


Daddy...this is a good pic...look how happy!
