A long {fun-filled} weekend

This weekend has been a very busy, but very fun one! We started our journey Thursday evening as we headed to Mobile, AL to visit my very special niece for her 3rd birthday party (has it been 3 whole years already??) We had a blast playing with Katie & Austin and spending time with the rest of the family! Megan & I enjoyed helping Marsha decorate for the party during naptime--and when Katie woke up, she LOVED it! Katie was so sweet--she kept thanking everyone for her party and for coming to visit her at her house. Austin wasn't feeling well some of the time, but he was still a very sweet boy! He can blow kisses and say milk and thank you and it is adorable!! Austin's favorite part of the party was the tissue paper!!



When we got back home, we decided to go to Hartselle's Christmas open house so that Sydney could meet Santa and we could go spend her gift certificate to The Robin's Nest. She was okay with Santa at first...she even took a candy cane from him...but when he moved beside her to take a picture she decided to start pouting! She didn't even really cry...and she was over it as soon as he moved back and started talking to her again! I think she heard somewhere that kids are supposed to cry in their first pictures with Santa!

We took her to The Robin's Nest to pick out her first "real" baby doll. She loved them all! Everytime she saw one she grinned. We {finally} picked out a beautiful Corolle doll that is soft, just Sydney's size, AND can go in the bathtub!! Sydney absolutely loved her! I think she may have found a new best friend!
