Silly and Sleepy Times in December

Allison kept telling me that she was going bye-bye... next thing i know, she has "almost" everything on to go outside... I told her that she had forgot to put on her pants and she responded with "Oh Ya, mama, that's right"!:)

later that day, dad came home from ice fishing with Loki... the lake was glare ice and Lokis feet slipped out from under him leading him to end up doing the splits on the ice... he was sore for days and could barely walk. So here is dad and allie trying to make loki feel better.

--- i am happy to say that loki is feeling much better.

This is the First time Allie has fallen asleep while watching TV by herself. - before i knew she was sleeping, I was thinking that she must be up to something, because of how quiet she was.

Allie loves to visit Ronald McDonald and sing the Old McDonald Had a Farm song to him. - She sings it with such enthusiasm! - She had every ones attention when I took this pic

Some Pics from Nov. and Dec.

Allison hanging out with the boys on opening gun hunting weekend... The two boys in the pic are my cousin Mindy's boys, Brady and Alex. Jackson, and Carter were there too

Funny hair-do - she calls this her princess hair. Its actually hair extentions of mine. lol

helping me put up the christmas tree - needless to say she didnt help for long because she couldnt stand the texture of the tree branches

here we are making christmas cookies

Allison and her big girl bed!

Halloween's Little Witch

Allison went as a little witch this year. For almost two weeks straight, I have been telling her that the witch says

Hee-hee-hee-hee-hee I'll GET you my Pretty, hee-hee-hee-hee! Well, she started saying the witch phrase two days before we went Trick or Treating and she says it with such a cute little witch voice!

We went Trick or treating with my cousins kids. Jackson aka Elmo and Carter aka Packer Player

They all did really well!

After every house, Elmo would take a little break and sit down to see what he all had in his elmo basket:)

The Zoo

We were finally able to take a trip to the Zoo, as a family!

The baby tigers were so cute. We made it there just in time to pet them. If we would have gotten there an hour earlier, we could have played with them.

It was time for there nap, and they tend to get a little sassy when they are tired.

This flippin' Tortoise freaked me out! lol It really liked the ice cream cone and would follow anyone who had one - Allison wanted to ride him and of course pet him

Allison's First Hair Cut

This picture was taken before her haircut. - I just had them even everything out.

she did pretty well for her first haircut. Especially, since she had no nap!:) - she didnt cry at all, just got a little wiggly. - she kept calling the cape her fish dress and still brings the fish dress up when a haircut is mentioned. So, i have a feeling, the next time she gets her haircut, she may want to wear that same fish cape/dress.

Summer of 2011

Allison helping me wash the stroller...

then she decided to wash her car. she loved washing her car

WE didnt feel like putting a swimming suit on this day...

Allison is saying, "look mamma, I wash my butt".:)

We took a little trip to Iowa in August...

In this pic: Allie is in the backround and the other two girls are Neils friends' little girls. - It was really hard to get a decent picture of them! they were moving none stop

*******************************************************************

we spent one day at the beach with my cousin Heather and her two kids...

*******************************************************************

Fair Time. She loved the fair! but was a little too excited there and tried running away from us a couple times

I thought Allie would have had a potty accident on this ride. lol it had some zip to it!

*****************************************************************

We had a suprise visitor this day... my cousin needed a sitter for a few hours. After lunch, we went for a walk down to the dock, so Carter and Allie cud feed the fish, some saltine crackers. They both had a great time until Loki decided he wanted some food too, and he went and stood in the water and scared all the little fish away. So, then it was time to go back home and play in the sandbox - they had a great time together

All in all we had a nice relaxing summer.

Fireworks!! " Ooh Aah" or "Big Mess"?!

July 3rd - We went to my aunt Susie's house to hangout and watch Shawano's fireworks. Allie got to play with her second cousin, Carter. They were taking turns playing peek-a-boo behind the tree

Carter and Allie play really well together.

Finally it was time for the Fireworks. Allie was scared at first but never cried. We were trying to get the kids to say Ooh Aah! after each firework, but Allie would always say Ooh BIG MESS! LOL I suppose it was a big mess in the sky:)

Holding on tight to gma and papa while watching the fireworks

July 4th -When everyone woke up the next day, we had breakfast and then Allie was able to enjoy spending time with my cousin Erics little girl, Emma. Allie is quite the little helper when it comes to babies.

The rest of the day, we just stayed home and filled her little pool up and relaxed.
