The time has finally arrived for Lane's first haircut...or should I say trim. I have waited 2 1/2 years for this moment. I love God's sense of humor....after all my wishing and hoping for hair for my little girl, He blessed her with a mullet. The 'business in front, party in the back' look was getting a little unruly so we called in Miss Cricket to help. There wasn't much she could do but it is a little more manageable for the time being. Thanks C!
Our family of four spent Valentines Day weekend at my parent's cottage. Chris and Lane enjoyed the outdoor activities while Carson and I held down the fort. Lane would live outside if we let her so she was in her glory.
Carson hamming it up fire-side!
Activities for the weekend included; make-your own pizza night, watching movies/Olympics, sledding, reading a million kid's books, staying in pajamas all day and Lane's favorite, keeping a close eye on all of the ice-fisherman and their shanty's.
This is Lane's first glimpse of the 'real' Santa. I believe the picture directly below best represents her response to the meet and greet.
This is Lane on the way out of the store from "meeting" Santa. She happily posed by his wooden cut-out. Hmmm...I guess theres always next year!
On Saturday the entire Phelps family celebrated Christmas together. Here are my Grandma's 10 great-grand kids ranging in age from 7 weeks to 5-years-old. My Grandpa was unfortunately never able to meet any of the great-grand kids but I think he would be very proud.
This was our practice run for making cookies for Santa. As you can see 'Little Miss Independent' enjoyed every second of this fun event and is ready for the real thing on the 24th.
