Sometimes it feels like nothing has changed and then there are times when it feels like everything is different.
Lucy has memorized her address. Its super cute to have her recite it. We are working on my phone number. all the 4's and 5's confuse her. I did figure out that she is a visual learner. She had a hard time with the house numbers until I wrote it down. She looked at it and we "read" the numbers and she picked it up almost instantly after that.
She had been very into building tents around the house recently. And has set up the a-frame one I made her in her room and has been sleeping in it for a little over a week. She has also talked about the monsters under the bed coming out to get her... So maybe it keeps her safe from them. Who knows, the child has a great imagination.
We went and saw Santa Clause. It was early, but totally worth it no one behind us meant. She got to sit on his lap and sing a couple nursery rhyme songs with him and talk. He asked her what she wanted for Christmas, she told him My little Pony Power Pony Pack, and he was confused, asked her what it was and she gave a rather detailed description, that it was all 6 of the pony's when they were turned in to super hero's and then Pinkie could zoom, zoom, zoom. It was pretty cute. After wards he gave her a Rudolph the red nose reign deer book and she yells out, I have that movie at my Papa's and My mom's house!
Headed to the aquarium one rainy day. She used to love it, ran around looking at the fish! It hasn't been that long since we were there last, but for some reason it was scary to her. She kept freaking out and hiding behind me telling me that the giant fish were going to get her. I explain several times that the fish can't come out of the tank and had to stay in the water or they would die, though this didn't calm any of her fears, we left 15 mins later...
Thanksgiving was some what uneventful. We were planning on joining everyone in Utah when the bad road reports started to come in. So we settled for a day at home, made pull a parts for breakfast, put up the Christmas tree, watched the Parade and some Christmas movies. I made a little turkey breast and a few sides. The day after I realized that was possibly the only weekend to get to Utah so we rushed around, jumped in the car and drove down. Lucy, Emma and Josh went ice skating. We all went to the Charlie Brown movie and finished that evening with the lights on Temple Square. (it was FREEZING!)
Lucy quotes, I need to write more of these down. Here are just a couple of recent ones-
"unicorns are my favorite animal, did you know that?"
"look how long my arms are! They are to my legs!"
"Jesus is being protected by the fairies!"
