Today was all about meeting up with friends and getting some pretty sweet presents. First, we met Kim Barnett at Starbucks, had a peppermint mocha, and Aurora got a wind-up duckie, an awesome plate, bowl, fork and spoon set, AND some adorable wooly socks. She actually squealed with delight when we got ready to open the presents!
This afternoon we met up with Amelia at Chuy's. Aurora was pleasantly surprised to get ANOTHER giftie, a Charlie Brown and Linus book and blankie. What a lucky girl!
She and I have both been enjoying all the nice gifts from friends and family. At 20-months old, her imagination is really developing, and she's been doing all sorts of cute things like making us kiss and hug her dollies, trying to change her piggy's diaper ("piggy poo poo!"), pushing her teddy bear on the swing, and making her leopard run around all over her car-seat and my head. She likes to color, loves stickers, and is very concerned about making sure that we all have jackets, socks and shoes on. She's becoming quite the copy cat, and if I ever put a ponytail in my hair, she INSISTS I do the same for her ("RORA PONY!!!"). She's also been making complete sentences; she can say things like "here, read this book mommy" and "get up, daddy." And she loves playing ring-around-the-rosies ("ALL FALL DOWN!"). Such a smart silly girl.

Aurora is a very smart girl with lots of great friends & family encouraging her learning skills. We childless Cheezheads are impressed with her rapid development. Has she conquered potty training yet, LOL?

Aurora has peed in the potty FOUR TIMES! And Kim Barnett has spread holiday joy at least as many times... probably more.
Wow, Aurora's got Christmas spirit! We love reading your blog.
