Gabrielle Icing her Cupcakes!

Gabrielle makes her first batch of cupcakes and icing from scratch!!
We tried to learn about measuring and ingredients...

But her favorite thing about the whole process... was licking the icing beaters!!!

Gabrielle's New Red Dress

Memaa and Pop-pop bought Gabrielle this cute red dress for Christmas... the only problem is...she won't take it off!
She has even worn it to the post office over her pj's. We finally got her to switch into the dress Ashia and Don bought her, but it was short lived... no sooner had we come home from errands and Gabrielle asked to put on her red dress! Toddlers!

Gabrielle in the snow.
So Gabrielle found out that snow can make snowballs, and snowballs can be thrown which is a lot of fun for a two-year-old. Now even thought she cannot pack the snow, she thinks she is doing a fine job, and was mighty proud of herself!

Miss Ellie recieved some games for Christmas... we thought they would help her learn how to take turns. She has yet again amazed us! She plays Lucky Ducks so well. We actually played with her, not in the let's let her win kind of way... and she still beat us! She is really good at matching up the shapes and rememebring where they are. She also enjoys the new fishing game. She is also learning how to play memory. We can't wait to play the Candyland game Aunt Melissa and Uncle Zack got for her!!

Had some great catches!

Happy New Year!
We couldn't think of a better way to start off 2008 than with a huge breakfast and bundling up to play in the snow!


We had such a great time!
