Christmas Lights

We took Tamia for a drive to look at Christmas lights the night before we went to Brookesmith. Here is a picture of the 3 of us bundled up and ready to go. She had a wonderful time...screaming "Santa!" or "Candy Canes" every time she saw them.

Christmas at the Holman's

Like I said before, Santa has many trips to make this Christmas, so he came to our house early. He brought Tamia her very own kitchen and she has since become quite the cook. Here are some pictures...

COOKIES FOR SANTA

Santa came early to our house because he has to have time to get to both Granny's in Brookesmith and Nana's in Oklahoma City. So with Daddy's suggestion, Tamia and I decided we would make cookies for the big guy himself...peanut butter with reeses in the middle. Tamia was a BIG helper...she took every single wrapper off all by herself. We had a blast and I think Santa really liked the cookies; so did Mrs. Clause for that matter. :)

THE NORTH POLE EXPRESS

Last Sunday we took Tamia to ride The North Pole Express in Grapevine. We had a blast! She got to make ornaments for the tree, sing Christmas songs, and even meet Santa! The great thing is that Larry and I had just as much fun as she did. It is so awesome to get to see your children experience things for the very first time. She is so precious to us and we are loving every minute of this parenting thing. Here are some pics from that night...

Of course she spotted Dora FIRST!

Baby Tammy

When I was home for Thanksgiving, I found my old cabbage patch doll in my closet...Her name was Tammy. I brought it home with me because I knew Tamia would just LOVE it. She did. You should have seen her face when I gave it to her. She told me she would take care of her for me...ha. I think she has already had 27 diaper changes. Tamia is really into the baby stage right now...or should I say the mommy stage? Here are some pictures of Tamia and Tammy...





We are headed to Daddy's basketball game today and going on the Polar Express Train ride tomorrow so look for more posts coming soon.
