Christmas season has begun! We went to Houston to see Mike's family over the weekend and officially started the Christmas family extravaganza. As always, we had a great time of relaxing and just "being" with the family. Christie and I talked about how we both don't really tell people when we're going home so we can have all of the time only with family...yes, it may be "hiding" from we love it! And, one of my favorite things to do is run through the trails in Kingwood with Christie. That girl can run! And, she's a great person to talk with about life during those times too. (Christie, I know i've told you this before but you are an added plus to my life when I married your brother!)
Most of the post is filled with pictures of our time together. I will devote a post later this week to Bella's walking skills - complete with video and lots of laughter.
Bella taking her "first" big-girl bath in a big bathtub. We usually put her in the small tub that sits in the big tub...but, this time Grammy graduated to the big-girl tub! Look at those eyes staring at Grammy!
Smith-Parson clan...complete with Bella looking at her daddy!
Playing with Paw-Paw...this was right after he was tickling her toes.
Here is Bella's loot from the grandparents...She loves to play with things she can't have - our cell phones, our keys, our laptops...so what did she get this year (among MANY other things?)...a toy cell phone, toy keys, and a toy laptop...maybe she'll want these more than the real ones?
Playing with Grammy and her new cell phone.
Bella LOVED Grammy and most of the time would not go to anyone else! (And, Grammy loved that...wouldn't you?)
Walking like a big-girl with Grammy.
Where's the little gal amongst the presents?
Some of the other great presents she received included a cute outfit from Aunt Christie and Uncle Joey, multi-colored gloves from Peru (Tommy and Susy went on a mission trip to Peru this year), monkeys from Peru, a musical train set, a hat from Peru, books, books, books, puzzles...phew, thanks Grammy and PawPaw!

Don't you wonder what she's thinking?
