Let the Festivities Begin!

We put up all of our decorations and got ready for the holiday season this week! Even though Ellie doesn't understand much of what is going on, having her around makes everything so exciting again. She does understand a few things though. She understands that the tree lights up so when it is unplugged she picks up the plug and stands there looking at us until we plug it in. And then of course she gives a big YAY when we plug it in. She understands that if she throws an ornament on the ground it bounces and rolls around like a ball (shatterproof). She loves doing that again and again and again. She understands that the Dora wrapping paper on the gift MomMom and Poppy sent is supposed to be ripped off. She understands some other mischievous things too...she is learning pretty fast!


We also kicked off the holiday season by going to Zoo Lights. It was so much fun and Elise was definitely in awe of the lights and music. She was also in awe of the puff on Mia's hat and tried to take it a few times. Mia was so excited about all the Christmas everywhere. 
Thanks Mike and Angie for treating us to a wonderful night!
