Well November seemed busy but not too crazy- Mikayla was already anticipating Christmas so most of the month was a countdown to the Christmas count-down. We managed to get our annual outfits and family pictures taken and that was a huge success! (I'll include pictures in December)

| My girls in their cute warm jumper dresses. |
 |
| The first real snow and Mikayla played out there for a couple of hours. |
 |
| Marissa finally fits in the the cute little skirt I made her and Mikayla- she is getting to be so fun and is finally rolling over front to back and back to front. |
 |
| Marissa loves sitting in the Bumbo chair to watch Baby Signing Time! |
 |
| THis is really how our living room looks- Mariss chilling out, the dogs sniffing EVERYthing and Mikayla playing with every baby toy that she thinks I won't get bugged at her playing with! |
 |
| Teething her first two bottom Teeth! |
 |
| Mikayla wanted to make a Turkey. She was so proud of it and set it out as a new decoration. |
Thanksgiving was spent with Jonathan's family- We went to Bennihanas with his mom a few days before Thanksgiving with entire family. Then we went to the annual Aunt Margaret's Feast, and then the day after we went to his dads house for another buffet type dinner. I was missing my family a ton but it was nice that we had some family here to spend the holiday with.
 |
| She also decided to get her own orange juice while I was getting ready in the morning. I made her take a pictures with it since the ENTIRE container was on the floor. I try really hard not to get so upset at things like this so my way of dealing with is is laughing and photographing the event. I think she was more embarrassed to take a picture than about the actual mess! |
 |
| Yes Mikayla likes playing on this toy more than the baby does. |
After Thanksgiving our tradition has always been to put up Christmas decorations. This year we waited until Black Friday to get out the decorations. Mikayla had so much fun getting out all the decorations and remembering things from previous years. So on to the Christmas season-
 |
| Mikayla had her dress rehearsal for her first dance appearance for the Festival of Trees. This is also her first time of wearing "real" makeup (as required by her dance company)- eye liner, lipstick, eye shadow, mascara. The entire time I was putting this on her I kept reminding her that this is ONLY for dance and we don't wear real make up until we are a lot older. |
 |
| So cute! She invited Jonathan's mom, Granny, Aunts and cousins to the Dance and she did awesome. She smiled the whole time and actually danced! We were so proud of her! |
