Ohhh candy!

Shiny and just the right size!

Visit with Santa

Courtney had her first visit with Santa. I don't think that she actually told him what she wanted for Christmas, but she surely received lots of presents!

Here is Courtney with all of her loot! She must have been really nice this year.

Baptism

Courtney was baptized on November 21st. It was the morning after all of the roads were turned into skating rinks. Luckily those intending to attend, were able to make it despite the weather! Courtney did wonderfully during the whole ordeal and slept right after her debut to the church. The baptismal gown was one my Great Grandma made for my Dad at his baptism. I wore it when I was baptized and now the next generation has worn it as well.

The star of the show!

Stink Eye

I think this means..... I'm tired get that stupid camera out of my face!

December has been a big month!

The first half of December has been a big month for Courtney. Here are some of her achievements:

1. As you all know, she got her first tooth!

2. We started feeding her cereal as well. She really likes it.

3. She is able to get on her hands and knees and rock. She will be crawling before we know it. She already scoots backwards, turns in circles and rolls across the living room floor.

Everything has a reason...

I now know what was causing the sleeping issues. Courtney has a tooth! She is the proud owner of a nice bottom tooth. Guess it is time to get the teething toys in the fridge/freezer. I tried to take a picture of it, but she would not have anything to do with it.

Last night she was a little princess again and went to bed without issue. She only woke up once to eat. She is back to being a good baby.... all of the time.

Baby Pictures

I was sorting though some pictures while doing a scrapbook page and came across a picture of me when I was about Courtney's age. So then I went looking for one of Brian around the same age. The only one I could find of him was when he was 8 months.... It will have to do for now.

Who does she look like?
