Where has the time gone?

Okay...so it's been a while since my last post.  Vacation time was over and we have been back in the books, and back to our busy life.
Christmas was fun and full.  We celebrated the New Year in Grammy style with a fun spread of snacks and food.  Here is a short recap in pictures.

Gabriella had daddy's help putting her new letters together

We had the Smith family Christmas in the afternoon/evening.  These are some of there exchange gifts.

The next week was the Pflug family Christmas at the gym.  We celebrated the new year before we went to the party.  We were all there at the table playing games...it's just this crazy girl that got in the pictures.

she does normally wear pants...but likes to take them off and put all different shoes on :)

The gifts just kept coming!  Aunt Megan's package came and there was MORE excitement and fun.

Daily life at Crazy House.  This is what a typical break looks like :)  Dancing...boogie...exercise...call it what you will but they burn some energy with loud music and "cool moves"

Gabriella and I do swimming on Wednesday mornings.  She recently got goggles and loves to wear them and look under the water.  Fish number 3 is growing gills.

She is learning to relax into a back float.  I sing twinkle twinkle in her ear and she makes a star.

Her playmate/friend Eden

The other night after watching Alvin and the Chipmunks movie Gabriella was putting on a show...dancing.
