So, since December 9th (the last post), we've seen:
Annalise get her first haircut (from someone other than Mom!)
We met Santa Claus (Clara tolerated him, Annalise not so much)
We played in the snow (and Annalise found a new favorite drink....hot chocolate)
Clara had her first bit of solids (and still hates it!)
and of course there was this holiday called Christmas!
At the end of December we got the very sad news that Great-grandma Werth was called to heaven. Although she never got to meet Clara, we know she loved all of her greatgrandchildren and everyone will miss her. (Picture July 2008)
Tomorrow, the NJ Swanson clan heads to Minnesota for a long weekend. Although Mom & Dad are not looking forward to taking 2 youngsters on a plane, it will be good to see the Minnesota Swanson's for a brief visit.
For more December pictures, feel free to peruse them here. For a short video of Annalise realizing that Santa isn't as bad as the picture above, click here. Her expression is priceless.
On a side note, if you ever needed evidence that Annalise is her Mommy's daughter, here is a picture of Annalise (at school) and Mommy when she was two. All Daddy can say is "Wow!"
