End of the Year!

I got up bright and early with Miss Noelle this morning, so I figured it was a good time to catch up on the blog. Noelle hasn't been feeling well for the past several days. I'm pretty sure she got the sickness from ME. I had a real scratchy throat, headache, dizziness all that fun stuff for several days, and now she has it. She's more congested than anything, which I never was? Luckily she's still been sleeping pretty good for the most part. (Naps have been few and far between, but still sleeps well at night). She hasn't been over fussy, which has pleasantly surprised us. We keep a humidifier on all the time in her room which has really helped break up the congestion, so we're hoping it's all coming to an end soon. We feel awful hearing her cough so hard!!!

We had Christmas with Grandma & Grandpa Kirkpatrick this past weekend at our house! Noelle got a lot of cute outfits, and toys to keep her entertained these days. She's definitely starting to notice more in her surroundings. She looks at her hand a lot and concentrates on them .... realizing her arms ARE attached to her body!! She discovered her tongue a few weeks ago, so now it's hardly ever in her mouth!!! Her tongue being outside her mouth keeps her tops nice and soaking wet .... so we'll change her top maybe once a day so she doesn't freeze from her shirt being so damp. She is also right around the corner from completely holding her head up, no problem. She can do it now for the most part, it's just still a bit wobbly.

Daddy will post more pics on her website at the end of the month, but I wanted to post a picture he took of her yesterday when he picked her up from daycare. She'd just got up from a nap. It's soo cute!!! Merry Christmas to all of you .... and have a Happy New Year!!!
