Visiting Santa

Kelsey was wide awake and smiling for her first visit with Santa today. I guess it's as her outfit suggests "Santa's Favorite" and we finally got a new family photo.

Kelsey First Cookie Day

The girls outdid themselves this cookie day. Kelsey was lucky enough for her Grand Aunt Janet to get her a personalized outfit to signify her first time at our annual event and her Cioci Joanne made her an apron and oven mitts so she would fit right in with the girls. And, we also managed to squeeze in making 6 different types of cookies. Yum!

Christmas Tree Shopping

Of course we picked the coldest day of the year so far to go and get our tree. Kelsey picked out a 6 ft Douglas tree.  We can't wait to bring it home an decorative.

Gingerbread Houses

Had a fun visit today to see the Gingerbread Houses Expo at the abrodeum in Morristown. Had a great time with Grandma LaSalvia!

12.4 it's starting to look like Christmas

Today we started decorating for Kelsey first Christmas. This is also the first year in a house so we got the fun experience of putting up the lights for the first time, complete with Mats favorite toy solider teddy bear lawn ornament. Kelsey helped by taking a nice long nap while Mommy and Daddy did the lights  :)

12.5 Like mother like daughter

Kelsey got to model in one of her mom's baby outfits that Grandma McGowan was lucky enough to save. Kelsey wasn't really cooperating for these pics but she looked super cute in her dress and bonnet.

Photo Shoot

Kelsey had her first photo shoot. It started off a bit rocky with her screaming in her present outfit, I don't think she was feeling the tutu but looked super adorable. Then we took some pictures on her belly for her birth announcement and she looked like a peaceful sleeping angel. We can't wait to share all the photos in our greeting cards this holiday!
