Cute Old Video

I came across this old video of Gabby singing, and it is so cute I just had to put it up. I can't remember exactly how old she is. Somewhere between 12 and 14 months. 

My little Sunbeam

Gabby started Sunbeams this past Sunday. I can't believe my little girl is a Sunbeam! I'm one of the primary pianists so I get to be in there with her every other week. It wasn't my turn to play this past week, but I snuck in and sat in the back during her singing time and sharing time just so I could keep an eye on her. She did great! She and all the other new Sunbeams were so cute! 

Christmas Morning

We had a great Christmas this year. My dad and brother drove out from California on Christmas Eve and were able to make it to our house early enough on Christmas morning to see the girls open their presents. Gabby got exactly what she wanted from Santa, a princess backpack. Funny side story though, I had been asking her for weeks what she wanted Santa to bring her, and the only thing she ever said was a princess backpack, that was it. Then on Christmas eve, she says "I want Santa to bring me an ipod." I told her sorry, but I didn't think Santa was going to bring her an ipod. She says "Oh, okay then just a princess backpack." I'm so glad she's easy to please! Although she was excited about the backpack, her favorite present ended up being the magic wand that Spence got for her. Anabelle just had fun with the wrapping paper. 

More big laughs

Here's another cute video of Annie laughing. Gabby was shaking her birthday balloon and Annie thought it was hysterical. Sorry it's so dark. 

A little bit of Christmas!

Since we were planning on staying in Logan for Christmas, and Darren's parents weren't going to be able to see the girls on Christmas they decided to come up on Tuesday to give them their Christmas presents. Gabby got a few new dress up things (like the Fancy Nancy outfit she has on above), and few other fun toys. Annie also got some fun things. The girls had fun seeing their grandparents and opening a few early Christmas presents. Thanks Grandma and Grandpa!

3 Years Old!

I can't believe my little girl is three years old already! She turned three on Monday, and unfortunately she was so sick! She and I both came down with the stomach flu on Saturday and she still had it Monday for her birthday. Since we did a birthday party for her in the summer, we didn't really have much planned for her birthday and since I had been sick I really didn't have much planned, but she woke up Monday morning and when she didn't have any presents to open she was so bummed! Darren and I felt so bad that I ended up running to the store to get a couple little presents and some balloons. I guess we won't be doing the summer party thing anymore!

Visiting Santa

Darren and Gabby went on a Daddy-Daughter Date the other day to visit Santa Clause at the mall. Apparently the kids aren't allowed to sit on Santa's lap anymore (for obvious reasons), but she got to sit up next to him on his big chair. She informed him that she wanted a Princess backpack. That's the only thing she has asked for, hopefully Santa will deliver.
