it's beginning to look a lot like christmas!

we bought a little tabletop tree to have up stairs to enjoy when we're playing up here. lilyanna was excited to "touchie" and hang the balls on it.  

 here she is in her grinch shirt. "merry! merry!"

 enjoying a banana one morning at breakfast.

 this is a fun sparkly decoration. a little pokey, so we only play with it for a few minutes at a time.

 we tried to do a christmas photo shoot in one of her christmas dresses. not too successful. lilyanna is determined not to look at the camera and smile.

 the second try did get us this shot. cute but not happy.

 here she is smiling! haha!

 probably the best of the bunch this time around.....but still not great.

oh well. there's always next year.....
