Playing with Uncle Jesse & Auntie Ea: SUSHI

Ma familia

Another great Christmas present was a visit from Auntie Ea and Uncle Jesse! We're having lots of fun just hanging out at the house.  Dancing...

Playing with balloons...

Davin has been showing off his (almost) crawling skills.

And even though Uncle Jesse is a little sick, he still loves me enough to have a picnic of play food sushi. Yum yum...

Double check

Today Davin and I went to the doctor and we BOTH got a check up.

Our stats:
Davin - 15 lbs 4 oz (20th percentile), 26.5 in (50th percentile)
Me - 27 lbs (25th percentile), 37 in (50th percentile)  aka tall and skinny... Daddy's worse nightmare.

I also had to do 'tricks' for the doctor - stand on one leg, jump up and down, identify shapes, and draw things.  I drew a circle, the letter 'T', and a square.  She said I was super smart.  Apparently, you're supposed to be able to draw a square at 5 years old and I'm only 3!

She didn't say Davin was smart.  He was physically advanced, not mentally advanced like me.  He was always moving and tried to crawl off the table.  He's a lean, mean, fighting machine!  She predicts that he'll be quick and curious and a big ol' trouble maker getting into everything!  I'm a good girl though. 

I like the doctor's office.  :-)

O Christmas Tree

You hath shared your bounty... finally!  And what a wonderful Christmas treasure there was... TONS of presents for me.  Thank you everyone and Santa too!

Some of my favorites include this vReader... aka my own computer... and Uno Moo.

I'm also enjoying being a rock star with my new guitar (pronounced GEE-tar).

Davin loved it when I played with my new puppets.  

He also started to get into the hang of unwrapping presents... though he would have been better if he hadn't slept through the first part of Christmas.  I had almost unwrapped ALL of my presents by the time he woke up!

 

Part (a large part) of his unwrapping technique involved eating the wrapping paper.

Its kind of a constant thing with him... eating stuff... 

It was a great Christmas.  And we're having fun playing with all of our new toys... I like Davin's and my toys... so really I got twice as much!  By the way, did I say thank you!?

 

I can't wait for Christmas to come again!  I hope you had a great one too... with family (even an annoying little brother), a big tree, a warm fire, and some hot cocco (I had my first cup... yum!)

Oh, by the way... all these pictures were taken with Mommy's new camera that she got for Christmas.  Its really cool, but I'm not allowed to play with it.  :-(

Xmas Eve

We continue the Poehls' family Xmas traditions, even though we're Adams.  I like them because it means we get to open some presents on Xmas eve.  

Davin got some cool cars (which I've decided should have been for me... and thus have absconded them.)

I also decided that Mommy's oven mitts fit me better... though I did let her keep her gift card.  Daddy was also allowed to keep his gift card, AND his wrench.  I let him keep the wrench because he used it to open my pink dump truck, so it was a good present.

And of course we got our annual PJs... a tradition.

Santa Baby

Entomologist

Before our organic farmer's market ended for the year, we collected a few caterpillars from our broccoli.  They made cocoons and this weekend they hatched.  

Daddy made me a butterfly cage for my two beautiful butterflies.  I like to give them kisses.  

Lights

An annual tradition.  Lights at the National Mormon Temple.

Davin being Davin...
