SANTA
She was holding on for dear life! Abigail was not too sure about sitting on the Snow Queen's lap either although the snowflake ornament captured her attention long enough for me to snap a picture.
over how light her hair looks in this picture.)
Even though Abigail wasn't fond of sitting on Santa's lap this year, rest assured as we were walking away she told all of us "I love Santa." Thank goodness! :Tonight we went to the Grand Illumination in Merchant's Square in Williamsburg.
Michael Alexander was all bundled up, sweet sweet baby boy.This is the Williamsburg Inn, I think it's decorated so beautifully and I just love the live greenery and fresh fruit they use to decorate with, simply gorgeous!
We ended the night at the candy store, Abigail was smitten by her Christmas tree lollipop. :)

baby it's cold outside
Abby has been sick the past few days with a cold and all of the fun stuff that goes along with it. Like being IRRITABLE!!! Whew, I think she's on the up and up tonight thank goodness.
We ran some errands this morning and she was so funny. For some reason today she wanted to tell people that I was her mommy. She's never done that before but I thought it was so sweet. People always talk to her no matter where we go and she's certainly never met a stranger but it's usually a smile and hello! So today we would pass a random passerby and she would say "that's my mommy" and point at me. It was so cute and made me smile!
She spent the night at Granddaddy's Saturday night and when we went to pick her up on Sunday we stayed for a while and chatted with Jerry & Elizabeth. I asked Abigail to tell Grandaddy what she wanted Santa to bring her and she put her finger up to her temple and was pointing and looking off to one side and said "I'm thinking"....the expression on her face and her serious tone had us in stitches. She finally started naming all she wanted. I wanted to put this in writing so that I will never forget it, truly priceless!
A little neighbor friend Lauren came over this afternoon to play with Abigail. They had fun dressing up, reading Christmas books, playing with playdoh and coloring. Lauren ended up having dinner with us and her brother Logan walked down to get her around 7:00. Abigail has not at all liked her hair to be brushed since she's been sick, hence the sideways ponytail below that's looking a bit nappy! : )
Good night!!
P.S. Two more days until we go to see Santa. Abigail is not the only one that is SUPER excited! :)

Shopping, Turpin girl's style
Saturday Robert, Abigail and I bundled up and ventured out to get our Christmas tree! The rest of the weekend was spent decorating, watching Christmas Vacation while putting up the tree, burning the Christmas candles, cleaning and getting ready for my most favorite time of the year.
Abigail watched a few Sesame Street video's on You Tube this morning and the commercials prior to the show were for Key West, FL. I cannot stop thinking about the beach, dancing outside to reggae music while wearing slinky summertime dress's and eating a meal by the water....ahhh, it's fun to daydream! And now back to cozying up by the fireplace!
Abigail & Michael Alexander (two cute little turkey's) :)

an early Christmas present
We won't be spending all day across the river since I'm playing in an alumni basketball game at the high school tomorrow evening for a fundraiser. Wish me luck! Hope you all have a great weekend.

D DAY
On a side note we had our propane tank filled today for our gas logs so looking forward to a cold wintry night so that we can fire that baby up. I love our fireplace but have been daydreaming about one like this.
A girl can dream, right? G'night ;)
