"Ballet Parking" & the Holidays

Julia is the funniest girl...she just cracks us up all the time with the stuff she says. The other day we were at the mall and she heard Wally telling me that during December they had valet parking at the mall for the holiday shoppers. Julia looked up at us and said, "Ballet parking?" And Wally said "Yes, they have dancers come out and dance all around your car before you can park." For one brief moment, she had this look on her face that said she thought this was the greatest idea she'd ever heard....but then I guess reality took over and she realized she was being tricked and she rolled her eyes like a 16 year old and said "Daddy!"

Sometimes when she sees me wearing something new or that she likes, she'll say "Ooh, you look so good, girl!" And she always calls Lexie "honey" ...."It's okay, honey, I'm right here" in this soothing voice. She loves to hold Lexie and help with her, but strongly maintains that she is never having her own children. I told her it's her choice to make when she's older.

The holidays went well. We got to meet new people at Gigi's mom's house up in Georgia. We also got to see my family and had fun opening our gifts Christmas Eve. The kids were really happy with their gifts. Aiden got a lot of Elmo things, since Elmo is his passion right now. He's constantly talking about "Momo" Julia is obsessed with High School Musical right now. She got the new movie and also HSM pajamas, poster, necklace, etc.

Here are some recent pics...hope you enjoy them! Happy New Year, Everyone!
