The Link Christmas

Carmen, Papa, Alaina & Anna

BIG GIRL!

Christmas Eve

I loved watching Carmen watch the cows. She liked looking at them and "mooooooing". Watch her moo....she moos from the toe up.

Here are some misc. photos that Mom & Dad had on their camera.

When Carmen stayed at Mema & Pepa's at Thanksgiving, they put her to work. She had to earn her keep.

See....

Going to church on Sunday...had to wear the Christmas dress. She has several Christmas outfits we are trying to squeeze in!

She wasn't being very photogenic...a little bit "on the run". :) Dad dressed her too btw!

Friday - Carmen dressed up for her Christmas party at daycare, and the Christmas Open House @ church. She had a fun day/night. She got to stay w/ Alisa & Justin (daycare provider) while Mom & Dad went out w/ old college friends!

Carmen has recently become very affectionate to Lilly. She has even tried to pick her up. Lilly has been barely ok w/ this recent change, but it's giving Lilly a good chance to exercise (i.e. being chased from room to room). Hear what she says in the video...

We gave her one present on Saturday - Tickle Me Elmo. She thinks he is funny, except when he lays on the floor & kicks. Then she isn't sure. She has an Elmo at daycare that does other things so I'm sure it's confusing.

There's a neat story behind the cute little top she is wearing. My friend from work gave it to her. It was hers when she was a little girl (40 years ago). I almost cried!


Christmas Breakfast at Huhtamaki. We went to see Santa...this is the closest she got. :) Carmen wasn't sure about Santa.

Here's her balloon from the balloon artist!

15 month check up report from the Doctor:

32" - 95% 24 lbs 1.5 oz - 75%

15 month picture. This is the best I could get with the bunny. I think we're going to have to pick a different object to compare against. :)

Here she is reading a book. The other day, Lilly was in the chair. Carmen had taken a book, put it up on the chair, opened it & appeared to be reading to Lilly. Cute stuff.
