Pebble's hair!

This style fits her! She has become spunky and independent! She is a really good girl that can give her mom a hard time. If she is acting naughty, she is quick to apologize and ask for forgiveness! She is the typical little sister and will do whatever she can to annoy Claire.

Church choir

I have to figure out how to post the video (they haven't been working, hence no recent ones)! They did great and you can hear Claire's sweet voice. This was taken during the rehearsal before church started. Allie did great with that, but she decided not to perform at the church service. Maybe next time!

Peek-a-boo! She was such a big girl sitting with the kids for the first part of church.

Grammie's girl

The girls love getting treats after the service!

Mermaid Allie

Allie just loves to take baths! She would take a bath two or three times a day if she could.

Getting ready for Valentine's day!

Allie just started to let me put bows and things in her hair! I love it! Below they strike their sister pose!

Making cookies with Isabelle!

YUM!

Sisters- Best friends forever and ever!

These pictures sum it up! The two of them are best friends. It's kind of hilarious. They will strike a pose and ask me to take their picture!

Posing for before bed.

Posing after breakfast. Notice Claire's crazy bed head! Allie was lining up all of her little animals and figurines.

Allie is being potty trained so they even turned potty time into a photo op! What silly girls!

Christmas at the condo

The celebration continues! Claire and Allie enjoying some dessert!

Allie with her Pamma

SO hard to get a good shot, Allie was not herself and feverish. Such a sick winter!

The girls loved looking out the window for buses, doggies, and the "boat".

Claire- a few Christmas memories

Claire enjoyed Santa this year and she'd hug him and talk to him at the Hawthorn Woods CC Christmas events.

Claire over did it with the sweets this year. I think that she survived on treats alone this holiday season! With a little work, we are back on track again! I didn't take a picture, but the candy table at GG's house was quite a hit with her!

Presents galore. Claire must have been a really good girl! Thanks to Santa and our family for being so generous and thoughtful.

Other:
-She loved looking at Christmas lights in the neighborhood. She would state, "Are you kidding me?" over and over. It was funny. She also decided that our lights weren't that good after noticing how crazy people go around here with the decorations!

-She was congested and had a cold prior to Christmas and on Christmas night, she had to go to bed super early and was complaining about her ear bothering her. Once home, we made the trip to the doctor who confirmed that she had an ear infection.

Allie- a few Christmas memories 2012

Allie LOVES anything "Elf on the Shelf" and has watched the movie several times. She loved finding her elf every morning and usually found it before her sister did. Last year, our elf was named Fred. This year, they started calling him Chippy (his name in the movie), or Allie would just call him Elf on the shelf!
