Sunday Dress

Steve's mom got Annika the most beautiful dress ever!  It even came with a matching dress for her baby doll.  On Sunday, Dec 21, she wore the dress to church and even brought her doll to church with her.  She is truly a little princess!

Christmas Cards

Annika loves to scoot her chair around the kitchen to use as a step stool.  She especially loves to look at all the Christmas cards on the pantry door.  She always has to point out her favorite cousin, Carson.  She absolutely adores him.  =)

Annika's First Time Snow Shoveling

With the many snow storms we have been having lately, we have had to clear the snow many times from our driveway and stairs with the shovel and snow blower.  Annika insisted on putting on her boots, mittens, coat and hat and came running out of the house to help.  She is such a big helper.  =)  

Our Christmas Tree

We finally have our Christmas tree up.  It's a fresh tree delivered from North Carolina!  Annika was such a good helper in decorating it.  For the most part she has left it alone, although sometimes the temptation is just too much for her and she has to go hit an ornament.  =)
