Oh, the weather outside is frightful...

It is -12 here right now with a -38 windchill. Who wants to do Christmas in Minneapolis next year? :) Her second day of daycare went really well, but the drive home in the snowstorm was not fun. It took 2 hours and 15 minutes. I learned that Penny can cry for an entire hour! So we've been sitting inside all weekend and taking pictures of our growing girl.

She is growing a ton. She is now sleeping in the crib. I miss having her in our bedroom but she outgrew the bassinet. The bassinet was creaking and shaking from her moving so much and I was afraid it would topple over.
Here are some pictures of her in a funny frilly dress that Libbi outgrew. (actually I don't know if Libbi ever wore it. I don't think Jackie Lee and I are really frilly dress kind of moms. Pretty funny because when I was little I wanted a whole closet full of lacy, frilly dresses) This one is a spring dress but I don't think she'll fit in it by Easter.
Here's Penelope after a bath

Mommy is playing with my hair. Poor Princess Penny
I heard that my cousin Dylan is the king of drool. I've been practicing so we'll see this week who can drool the most. I even hit Mommy's eye yesterday. Why does she hold me over her head? She isn't very smart.

We keep trying to catch a smile...

I love her frilly dress and her hair like grass pose. She is soooo much like her mom.
-38 gives you so much time to be together and bond in the house. Be happy.

Merry Christmas
