What a Christmas!



This Christmas is definitely going to be a memorable one. We waited to put the Christmas presents under the tree until Christmas Eve. Because Shea is a sneak. Let me first start out by saying that Wayne and I bought her a slide for Christmas. We were looking forward to seeing her on Christmas morning. She is absolutely in love with slides. I also want to mention that when Shea wakes up in the morning the first thing she does is wake up mom and dad. Well, around 7:30 am, Shea jumps into our bed. Wayne and I both look at her and say CRAP. Her face is covered with make-up. So of course, I jump up to see what kind of damage was done to my make-up. I walk out of our bedroom and notice that all the lights are on. I turned the corner and to my amazement, the floor is covered with wrapping paper. Shea had opened all of the presents! She runs to into the room yelling "SLIDE SLIDE, WATCH!" It was obvious that she had been awake for quite a while. She definitely is my child. We sure did have a great Christmas being together, sledding, and even talking to my brother who is on his mission in Florida!

I also want to say CONGRATULATION to the Maddock family, on Kaidence's new heart. That is such a great gift for Christmas. She is the cutest little girl ever. If you want to go to her blog it is at http://www.4mykaidence.blogspot.com/!

POTTY Times

Wow, I can't believe how fast Shea is growing. She is starting to use the POTTY. The other day she went twice. I been having her wear panties for about an hour a day, and am constantly asking her if she needs to go. I didn't want to push potty training very soon, but she is so independent. She wanted to start using it all by herself. She isn't even 2 yet, so I am going to take my time with it. We finally got our Tahoe back from the shop. At first they thought it was a transmission problem, then an engine problem. Well, it turned out to be an exhaust problem. So it is all fixed. Wayne was pretty excited to get his baby back! (I forgot my digital camera in Utah, so as soon as I get it back I will post some pictures.)
