Meet My Little Sister!

I met my little sister Natalie this week!!! She sleeps most of the time, but she is REALLY cute.

Since we are family, I got a bracelet too when I visited her. It said, "Lillian Penne; Natalie's Big Sister."

I think my little sister is a "very little dumpling." My mom & dad said that when I was born I was that small too, but that I have grown up. I didn't believe them so I tried the bassinet out, just to double check.

They were right. I am too big for the bassinet.

Christmas

I had a great Christmas!
I slept over at my Gung gung and Popo's house.

I woke up at 1 am to see if Santa had arrived, but my Popo told me to go back to sleep so I do not scare Santa away. Then I woke up at 4:30 am to ask my Popo if Santa is shy. She said yes so I stayed in bed until 6:30 am. Then Popo made me pancakes for breakfast while we waited for Gung gung, my mom and my dad to wake up.

This is me on Christmas morning. All the presents with the Dora wrapping paper are mine.

This is our Christmas day dinner: Prime Rib, Baked potato with sour cream, butter and chives, Green Beans, Corn Soup and milk!

I am not a big fan of the Prime Rib.

But I LOVE the green beans. I had 3 helpings. I even ate some more after I had my dessert of...

...Cadbury Chocolate Elf with green "popping candy" in them.

My uncle Shawn sent them to me for Christmas!!! It was a delicious dessert!

Getting Ready for Christmas

So excited for Christmas!!! I made my first homemade ornament at school. I covered a shiny star with lots of glitter, and then glued a picture of me on to the front. My mom said it was the best thing she has ever seen.

I also found some totally awesome ornaments. Here is a "Rock 'em Sock 'em Robot" ornament which actually has moving parts!!

I also got my Nativity scene out so I could play "Baby Jesus." Here I am playing Baby Jesus with my brother Pagoda. He likes it when I put the Angel Gabriel on top of the house because a star lights up and music plays - then we can DANCE!!!

My Visit with Santa

My Popo took me to visit Santa Claus this week. I was planning to sit on his lap all by myself because I am a big girl now, but when I saw Santa Claus, I became shy, so I asked my Popo to sit next to Santa Claus, so I could sit on her lap.

I told Santa Claus that I wanted Legos, Playdough and dresses for Christmas, and that I have been a good girl. Then he gave me Strawberry and Cream ice cream when I was done visiting him.

I had a lot of fun. Maybe next year I will sit on his lap all by myself.

Big Sister

I am going to be a big sister!!!
Here is a picture of my little baby sister. I went with my mom and dad to see her.

My mommy's belly is really growing. I like to lie my head on it and listen to her move around. And every morning I say "Good Morning baby sister" and give her a kiss. Here I am snuggling with mommy's belly to keep baby sister warm.

Just Another Day at Preschool

Making funny faces with my friends Peter (red shirt) and Dylan (blue jacket).

Enjoying snack time with Nora (red sweatshirt) and Nicola (green jacket).

Thanksgiving

Had a great Thanksgiving at my Popo and Gung Gung's house. It was very cold that day, but we kept warm hula hooping, and eating lots of turkey, ho mei fan (Good Flavor Rice), green beans, vegetable soup and bread. There was also sweet potatoes but I don't really like them because they are so mushy.
