Elmo Live. This toy is unbelievable! Thanks Auntie Kelly and Derek!!!




Me and my G's! Check out my dad's grandpa sweatshirt! He sure is proud:) Looking good dad!

Justin, Halle, and I enjoyed a great Christmas with both sides of the family. We spent Christmas Eve with my family and Christmas Day with Justin's family. Halle got spoiled rotten of course! She is the only grandchild on my side and the fourth on Justin's side of the family. We had a lot of family in town which made it even more special.

Halle got a lot of cute gifts. Why didn't they have this stuff when I was a kid?!! Thanks for the gifts G-ma & G-pa Dubiel/Davis , Auntie Kelly & Derek, Jenny, Auntie Kay, Great Grandmothers, and Miss Brenda.

Hanging out with Auntie Kelly and Derek






Halle loves being with her Aunt Kelly and "Uncle" Derek. Even though my sister is not married yet, Halle is hoping Derek will be her Uncle some day:) She absolutely adores him! She thinks he is a character. He is one of her favorites!

Fantasy of Lights on Mill

Halle fell asleep right before Santa came. There was no waking her up! Too much fresh air.
Grandma and Grandpa bought Halle this light up snowman thing.

Sporting her hat! She loves hats:)



Halle and Grandma



Halle and Grandpa
My dad likes to steal Halle away from everyone. He took her on a tour of Mill Ave.



Halle trying a french fry for the first time. I know....bad mom! Introducing carbs this early is not good. Well, it was no surprise that she loved it:) I felt bad eating a big old "Fatburger" and fries in front of her.





Halle just being cute!







We started out the night chowing down at Fatburger. Yummo!!!!







Thanksgiving at Justin's parents (House 2)



We enjoyed our second turkey meal at Justin's parents. Yum! Auntie Karen (Justin's sis) stole some kisses from Halle Bear.

Can you see me?


Halle loves the glass sliding door at my parents house. She likes to crawl up to it and press her face against it. She also enjoys licking it too!

Thanksgiving at my parents

Our little Turkey! Halle is going to kill me when she looks back on the things I made her wear. She really does love bows, headbands and hats believe it or not. She never trys to pull them off. What a cutie pie!

Mommy Time!





























I was greeted today with a happy Halle. She was full of smiles and giggles. We played together until Daddy got home. She makes me laugh. I can't turn around for a second. She is all over the house.

Halle is 7 months!


Halle's favorite toy is this table. She can pull her self up on it and play forever.















Come on Chloe....I just want to play with you.



YES! I am in a highchair! I am a big girl:)









Sneaky face!
















Yeah, I can drink from a sippy cup. I get a little messy so mom takes my clothes off.


Our little Halle turned 7 months on the 14th. Time is sure flying by! Everybody always told me to savor every moment with your baby because they grow so fast. They are right. We really enjoy the time we spend together as a family. I always know that I will be greeted with a smile when I pick her up after work. It is the best feeling when they see you and they get really excited. I definitly look forward to those moments. It makes everything else that happened that day disappear.

Halle is crawling EVERYWHERE! She pulls herself up on everything or at least trys. She goes after our dog Chloe and her dog dish. Chloe is getting used to her but still very jealous. Chloe gets snacks dropped down to her from the highchair so she thinks that is pretty cool. Halle chats it up too. She says, "Da Da" all the time. Justin is pretty proud of that! It sounds like she is saying, "Dog" but is often comes out like "Dat". She is very curious and wants to touch and feel everything. She loves to play with her toys! Music is her thing:) When she hears music she looks at me and bounces up and down. Too cute! OK... she gets that from her mom. She has a total of three teeth right now but more are on there way. Teething has not been that fun lately but she is handling it like a champ. She still has a happy disposition through all of this.




















We just love our Halle !
