This was my first day of Maternity Leave. It was a Tuesday. I had gone to my appointment on Monday and my doc said, I am not asking anymore, I am telling you. So we thought it would be fun to get pictures of me with the baby in the big snow storm...never knowing that I was going to go into labor that evening..

Christmas Morning

Here is Lydia opening her gifts on Christmas morning. We had brunch for the whole family that morning even the puppies...here is Geno rockin his WVU gear his cousin Louie got for him.

and here is Lydia rockin her WVU gear. Uncle Mike and Aunt Kelly got this for her and loves it. She has been wearing it to basketball games and she tell people she is a Mountaineer.


She loves her tools. Even though they are not official Handy Mandy tools, She calls them Pat, Squeese, Dusty, Philpi (sp?), Turner and Stretch.
She would not stop playing with them to open more of her toys.!

I got her more of the Elephant and Piggie books by Mo Willams.

Princess Yatzee that I think is harder than real Yatzee..

Christmas Eve

Here is Lydia opening in her stocking at Nonni's. This was an "Ocean View Barbie"..I have no idea where she thought of that.


Here she is combing her hair. She is just now kinda getting into doll babies. She actually asked for a Barbie at Walmart right before Chirstmas. It was a mermaid one..which she ended up getting two of and she LOVES.
These next couple of pictures are ones that Lydia took...This is Uncle Mike scratching his lottery tickets.
This is Mark..not sure what she was telling her.
Now he is opening his stocking but you can see a little part of her finger.

Snow, Snow, Snow
